Reviews for Best Western Airport Inn & Suites Oakland

Review 1:One of the nights a guest had their car broken into. Awareness of this drew attention to the surriunding area, the many locals walking around at night in it, and the fack that no security gaurd was present.

Review 2:Our stay was positive. Staff was good, room was good, price was good.

Review 3:We were in third floor. Only one elevator.

Review 4:Perfect place to stay when attending Oakland Raiders game. Rooms are spacious, great configuration, immaculately clean, most comfortable beds I've ever had in a hotel. Desk staff is wonderful, shuttle drivers awesome. Breakfast is very good.

Review 5:Check in was very difficult. I had a rather strange circumstance so I called in advance to see if it was something they could accommodate me with but when I was there it was quite different!

Review 6:The beds were very comfortable!

Review 7:We have stayed at the hotel several times. We have been satisfied by the service, location, and comfort. This time the hotel was occupied with a couple of youth football teams. Many of the children were ill-mannered, the parents and chaperones were either unwilling or unable to see what these kids were up to. I went to the gym and it had been trashed. I am limited in what I can do to workout due to fractures in my toes, I opened the gym door and immediately tripped over some of the towels that had been strewn around the gym, hurting my foot. The seats for the recumbent bikes were jammed in place, making them unusable. The elliptical machine had been abused, the sled of one foot piece was off the track and the device and surrounding floor was littered with metal shavings. I was able to fix the elliptical machine so I could work out. The shavings posed a hazard to anyone without full coverage footwear. I could not set the television on an adult channel as one of the remotes was missing. I know that this was not the responsibility of the hotel staff, but when I reported the problems the desk clerk did not appear to recognize the hazards posed. At breakfast the next morning, my husband and I waited almost an hour before we could get into the dining room. Perhaps in the future, these large groups can have an alternate dining schedule from other guests. I am sure that the organizations that these children were a part of did not pay the same price that I paid for ourstay. At the rate I was charged, I expected a much different experience. I submit that the youth football organization reimburse me.

Review 8:Quiet location. The rooms are spacious and comfortable.

Review 9:Even though I had a pre-confirmed booking, the hotel would not sign me on arrival as they did not have a modern chip card reader. As an offered immediate alternative... they would not accept a full cash upfront payment instead. In fact - be prepared - they were and are fully prepared to turn away even a woman traveling, fresh off an airplane, alone, late at night, and feeling quite vulnerable - away - into a unfamiliar town (by then very late at night)...if and as a card swipe payment was not possible for them. I was very honestly horrified!!!

Review 10:The hot tub and pool are both great, and the rooms are clean and ample sized.

Review 11:There was lots of food places close by and the courtesy shuttle took us too and from the Raiders game for no charge. They also drop you off at the food places if you wish.

Review 12:we had to get a taxi to the car rental place as they said they couldn't drop us off on the shuttle as they were dropping football fans off at the Coliseum

Review 13:near to the airport

Review 14:We were pleasantly surprised and grateful that the hotel would transport us from the rental car center back to the hotel rather than having to take a shuttle to the airport terminal to be picked up. I normally don't respond to inquiries regarding my stay when I travel, however, I wanted to make sure that you were made aware of how pleased we were. We were only in the area for less than 24 hours.

Review 15:The pool didn't seem to be very clean, the fitness center was very small and had a leak that the staff needed to use a wetvac on while I was working out. The guest laundry had one broken dryer, which meant that two people washed clothes at once, but then one had to wait a full drying cycle before putting their wet clothes into the dryer. The breakfast was about what you'd expect--we skipped it and paid for breakfast elsewhere.

Review 16:Good location, and everything was basically fine. The room was clean and the wifi worked. This is a perfectly acceptable no frills kind of place to stay.

Review 17:1) had to call for shuttle but reservation confirmation said nothing of that, just a note that shuttles run every 30 minutes. I waited nearly an hour, having not called. 2) "Hot" food was served room temp even though it was in hot dish. Could make somebody ill.

Review 18:Staff was very friendly. Facilities were clean and in good repair (room, halls, lobby).

Review 19:and the soft towls plus the shuttle to the As game thank you Best Western for the great accommodations. We will be back

Review 20:Loved your soft beds so did my wife and the size

Review 21:Our flight was canceled called to see if we could get a room for one more night and price was almost twice as high for a lower price room

Review 22:Was nice for our reserve time

Review 23:Van driver passed me up at the airport; I called and was told he would be right back. 15 min. later I called again....he finally came after the 3rd call. When he picked me up, he never said a word to me at all. Area is not the best....be prepared for that.

Review 24:I liked the fact that they were so friendly and tried their best to rectify a situation which had occurred before I got there by upgrading my room. Driver did take me to pick up dinner at a local restaurant and waited for me to come out.

Review 25:NEIGHBORHOOD NOT GREAT, SLEEP THERE AND DRIVE TO YOUR MEETINGS :-)

Review 26:NO HIDDEN COSTS WITH ALL INCLUDED, PARKING BREAKFAST INTERNET AND MORE, QUIET, GOOD ACCESS TO THE HIGHWAY. ROOM SIZE FACILITIES

Review 27:The hotel's location has absolutely no business being where it is, it is literally in a warehouse district that happens to be surrounded by various gang hangouts. It was very exciting for me and my kids to wake up and look out the window and see the piles and piles of garbage that had been spilled right outside our window (I really wish I could upload the picture for this review). Oh, and if you need some "company" for the evening then that action isn't too far away from this exciting hotel too. Had to explain that one to my kids too. Thanks BW ! People: spend $20 extra and find a safer hotel to stay at.

Review 28:The hotel room was good, the breakfast was good, the staff were very friendly

Review 29:A middle age man was given our room while we were still occupying it, I had to yell Hey, Hey, out to him..the kids(7-11ages) and I were scared by this. I called front desk 1st time was hung up on, finally after 3rd time someone answered and he apologized and said it was taking care of....How? Yes they gave the poor man another room. But us?

Review 30:Room, clean

Review 31:I was placed in a room next door to several guys that came in at 12a.m. and stayed up talking and laughing loudly....I reported 2x to front desk that did nothing about it.....I could not go back to sleep after being woke up at 12a.m.....terrible night, would not stay here again

Review 32:Stayed 1 night , requested quiet room because of early 4a.m. wakeup for 5a.m. shuttle to airport....hotel was not full, lots of available rooms.

Review 33:The hotel states there is free WiFi, but you have to sign into your cable company and we did not have that information with us. One night we had to wait 40 minutes for the shuttle to pick us up at the Bart station, with the hotel a short 5 minute trip, we felt bit was too long to wait.

Review 34:It was great to have free shuttle service to and from the airport and the Bart station. A short trip into San Francisco. The staff was helpful answering questions we had. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable.

Review 35:- TV reception is poor - Breakfast seating area can get very crowded at breakfast time. - Breakfast area could be better organized; - i.e. having drinking cups by the juice jugs

Review 36:Free hot breakfast had good variety

Review 37:This motel let us down by first not having a remote control for the TV and when we mentioned it to the receptionist she shrugged her shoulders, as if to say, "What do you want me to do about it?" A male attendant near the counter immediately went and found a remote but it did not work. We again mentioned it to the girl on the front counter who then stated, "Just use the buttons on the side of the set." The next day we were taken to the Bart station and told to ring when we needed to be picked up. On our return we rang the motel and was informed they would pick us up in 5 to 10 minutes. Some 25 to 30 minutes later they arrived. The Bart station is 1 mile away. The next day the same thing happened when the promised time was again 5 to 10 minutes but the waiting time extended out to nearly 45 minutes this time. The Quality Inn shuttle called in three times and picked up their guests during this time. In that time we could have walked to the motel and back to the Bart station. The day we checked out we requested that the stay be recorded on our Best Western Rewards Account but the receptionist refused to extend this courtesy to us. We later phoned Best Western Rewards Centre and they apologised and awarded us our points. This is a nice motel but the staff we struck just did not care and we felt that we were a nuisance to their day and were not wanted here and we were pleased to be rid of this Best Western. If you wish to be ignored and treated as nuisance in the staff's day, please stay but if not, stay somewhere else in the area. ie Quality Inn etc. as at least they picked up their guests from the Bart Station three times while we waited.

Review 38:This motel provided an excellent location for exploring San Francisco, a very good breakfast and staff kept the food up to date with fresh food as it was eaten and kept the tables cleared so that there was no waiting time to have breakfast. The lobby also provided small biscuits etc. and fresh coffee which was handy for a quick snack when required.

Review 91:Area, a lot of homeless/ bums stopping you for change on the parking lot of the hotel city tax is ridiculously high breakfast could be better

Review 92:our room was spotless hotel was quiet kids enjoyed making their own waffles

Review 93:The breakfast assistant was not helpful, and was rude when I pointed out there was no more sausage or coffee. She pointed out it was close to 9:00 when breakfast shuts down. But there were many more guest that showed up after us, I'd say close to 6 or 8. I suggest making allowances for how busy breakfast is and accommodate the guest that do show up around 9. Or at least ask if they are missing something. I am a tipper. I tipped the front desk and the cleaning staff but did not give one to the breakfast person. Another person had said the same, he was not leaving a tip.

Review 94:The front door staff was friendly and accommodating.

Review 95:The staff was not the most pleasant before we got there and the info. was different depending on the person you talked to. Also the ice makers were not working anywhere.

Review 96:clean room, comfy bed.

Review 97:Wish their was more to do near the hotel

Review 98:I really liked the indoor pool n Jacuzzi. With four small noisy Children im glad we didnt receive any complaints,which. Made us feel more comfortable.

Review 99:1)television controls were difficult to operate. 2) the tv station with Olympics on did not come in - all static. 2) locked out of room (safety latch on from cleaning or from tv repair) - although we were assisted in getting into the room by staff, the safety latch was broken. we were told it would be replaced the next day and it was not.

Review 100:1) selections for complimentary breakfast. 2) availability of pool, hot tub, and fitness room 3) mattress

Review 101:The Carrows restaraunt that is close by is terrible, bad food, bad service. The area isn't very inviting that surrounds the motel, Warehouse district, graffiti, Gangstas.

Review 102:The breakfast buffet was very good.The staff was very helpful,The pool and jacuzzi were both very clean. It was close to O Co where we saw the supercross races, about 1 mile away.

Review 103:The location is off of the main strip on Hegenberger and you have to be comfortable with the surroundings.

Review 104:The reception staff really went out of their way to help us, ranging from giving our daughter a goody bag with a bottle of water, granola bars, and chips, to sending a shuttle to the car rental shuttle. They were more helpful than the staff in a lot of five-star hotels.

Review 105:I was accosted 3 separate times in the parking lot by panhandlers who approached me in the dark at my car. This is the first time I have not felt safe at this hotel. Something must be done about security otherwise I will have to find a different hotel to stay at while in Oakland.

Review 106:Comfort of the bed. Staff was helpful and friendly.

Review 107:The lobby could be redecorated and the pool area is uninvitingly plain.

Review 108:Very comfortable fine quality mattress , pillows, and sheets. Breakfast was very complete and nicely managed. Staff was very responsive and friendly.

Review 109:I am so sorry but the location was poor specially a homeless guy wasstanding at the parking lot which I thought he is a guide for the guestsbecause it was very dark outside. I was going to come in and tell thebell but he got disappeared.

Review 110:Excellent staff members, excellent cleanliness, excellent breakfast, thebedding were not too old, good shuttle service to and from the airportand being on time. Thank you so much for all the excellent services youhave. I'll be back since the price was also right.

Review 111:The bed & pillows could have been a bit better.

Review 112:The staff at the front desk were extremely friendly, professional & efficient. Breakfast was also very good.

Review 113:The room was a king suite and was very nice. The staff was helpful and the shuttle would take you in a timely manner to eat, to catch BART! Shopping, etc.

Review 114:There was no water in the vending machines - on two floors. I was really thirsty there the whole time.

Review 115:It was quiet since we had an outside room. The breakfast choices were good.

Review 116:Room had a man's sized fist hole in the wall. Walking in to the loby the decor seemed frumpy and old. The neighborhood was horrible. I am a social worker for LA county and it seemed as if I was saying in a client's home. We called three pizza chains and they said they would not deliver to the hotel. Would never, never stay there again.

Review 117:Room was fairly clean. Breakfast OK

Review 118:housemaids unhelpful, hotel old and worn looking carpets

Review 119:staff dropped us to restaurant and picked us up too, quick check in, pool and spa and wi fi and free coffee great good breakfast. every thing there that i needed, night staff woman great person.

Review 121:The hotel staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Room was very spacious and nice, beds were good.

Review 122:Room was large, well equipped and clean. AC unit bit poorly located to use trough the night. Location of the hotel is good if you want to stay close to airport. Otherwise neiborhood was bit "scary". Nearby Wallmart did not feel very secure/comfortable for not "local" looking couple... Hotel provided courtesy shuttle bus to Wallmart and back, so we didn't need to park our expensive rental car in "risk zone" at the parking lot! Very good service!

Review 123:Well, you cant change the neighborhood.

Review 124:Rena at the front desk was exceptionally courteous and professional. Your drivers were also very pleasant and prompt.

Review 125:Location scary. Eat before you come we took shuttle and had noteaten and it is in a very bad part of town with no food nearby theshuttle driver had to take us to eat that was nice of them toprovide that for us

Review 126:Pool
