The rooms are smelly, carpet is old. Everything is outdated. Cobwebs are everywhere. The bath tub is chipped all over. The bedding made of polyester, so it is very uncomfortable. If you want to have breakfast (which is included), you need to rise early, because if everything is eaten, they don't replenish it. The only good thing about this motel... More

This place used to be a bit worn down but it was not very spendy and kinda clean. The room rates have risen a bit for a place that is worth about $50.00 a night. -The bathroom: there was mold in the bathroom in the tub tiles. Tiles were also loose. The vinyl floor popped up in places because it... More

This hotel gets very mixed reviews. I have stayed here several times and they have started to upgrade their rooms. Supplies of cooking and eating utensils is very limited and a problem considering each room has a kitchenette. Suggestion: issue each guest a "cooking pack" on arrival. Even charge a deposit if necessary. The hotel is in a great location... More

The hotel is conveniently located and it is easy to use public transportation to get to San Francisco. There is nothing fancy about the hotel, but I was able to get a... More

I just wrote a review within this hour, meant to be for Coral Reef Inn and Suites in Alameda CA. Somehow the wrong hotel got picked up. It incorrectly named a hotel in the Rockridge area of Oakland. Editors, I would really appreciate it if you could go back and catch my earlier mistake.

I stayed at the Coral Reef Inn on a Wednesday a couple of weeks ago. I got a little suite with a kitchen and separate bedroom for what other properties charge for a basic room. Contrary to what another poster said, there is a water view of what you see in their web site's photo. It's not the bay, it's... More
