Continental Lodge Oakland

"Rooms were very fresh and clean. Bathroom facilities felt newly renovated. Overall very happy with the accommodation. Great service, the manager was both nice and helpful always greeting us with a smile. Neighbourhood is a bit rough but with that you can also stay at a nice hotel for a nice price."

"Owner is very meticulous and it shows. Rooms are very clean, spacious. This isn't in a great neighborhood true but you won't be walking anywhere anyway. The bus stop is directly outside the hotel and liquor store is super close."

"I have to say, my expectations were low for this motel considering the relatively low cost, but I was pleasantly surprised (relieved) to check into a clean, quiet and comfortable room. The free parking is a small lot but we never saw it full. The employee who checked me in was friendly (as friendly as you can be through a glass barrier) and I was promptly buzzed into the office door (which was locked each time I went) when I rang. I would definitely stay here again."

"When my group had arrived, I explained to the woman at the counter that we booked our tickets through Expedia 7 hours prior to arriving in Oakland. She said it wasn't in the system and we had never booked. She got another man to help us and he said we had to wait 15 minutes for it to appear. I tried telling him that we had paid for the room many hours ago but he got frustrated with me, interrupted me and told me to wait 15 minutes before walking away. This was extremely rude. It was at 3am and we had been traveling all night to get there just to wait in the lobby. I tried explaining to him that the room was booked under my name and paid for under another party member's credit card but he got frustrated again saying that name wasn't in the system. He eventually found our room reservation after much time wasted and we headed upstairs. The room was beautiful for the price we paid. It was very clean. There were no towels for the showers and virtually no water pressure. There wasn't an option for do not disturb so the cleaning crew came in anyway the next day and they brought some towels. They did a great job fixing up the place. Overall the room was nice but the man at the counter just put me in a bad mood."
