It was a low cost option for a conference I was attending in Oakland. I was wary as soon as I drove up. I arrived at past 10 pm. It advertised having parking available, but it turns out it is self parking at a lot 4 blocks away. When I asked if someone could park my car for me since... More

Stayed here during the conference at the Oakland Marriott which is right across the hotel. Was such a convenience going back and forth during the conference. The Washington Inn has a really great service. The employees working here are very courteous and helpful. The room has a refrigerator and TV. Marriott doesn't even have a refrigerator in their room. Inn... More

3* hotel. I was part of a group, internet did nor work for many of us, except in lobby and even then, some dropout. Staff seemed to be in denial regarding the issue, problem persisted for whole stay. Some of my colleagues had problems with hot water, although I did not. Free breakfast, pretty limited and unhealthy choices. Will look... More

It is in an older building, so it looks more run-down than the newer chain hotels. The rooms are small (think New York City) and not immaculately clean (our comforters had stains). The sink was...

We stayed here for the San Francisco Salsa Congress (right next door at the Oakland Convention Center). Great location and clean. Staff friendly. Breakfast in the morning is fair. Nothing special, but gets some food in your stomach. The computer in the lobby is free, but the wireless internet is way too slow. It needs an update. Another dropback is... More

I read many reviews before settling on the Washington Inn. I decided that I would probably love if for some of the very reasons others didn't care for it. The price was excellent, the location was perfect for me to walk to a concert at the Fox theatre, and the hotel is one and a half blocks to a BART... More
