Our brief 2 day stay was fine. Everything in the room was clean and worked including the AC, bathroom, bed, etc. Nothing fancy but we only needed a functional place to stay. Was conveniently located next to the 405 and various fast food options. Allowed pets was another key reason we selected.

If I could give zero stars I would. The room was very dirty and the a/c unit barely blew cold however it’s a step up from a park bench in Oakland. I give them that.
