Rodeway Inn Alameda-Oakland

I didn't use the breakfast, I was not told where it was. The room was very nice, everything worked, the lady from the front desk came and helped get the TV going and straightened the internet out. Also the complex was more quiet than I expected. I will stay there again.

Very convenient Alameda location close to 880 via the Tube. Walk to Starbucks, Peets next door. A great price, no frills, you just get what you pay for.

Can’t beat the price for under $100 and a comfortable stay in Alameda!!

This Rodeway is an older building. "Vintage" The front doors have paint fails, so you wonder if you're getting a smelly carpet room with a lumpy mattress and old yard sale furniture crowded into a too small room. (which was my experience earlier at the very cheapest hotel on offer in Oakland). Imagine my delight: Inside was wooden floors! modern marble countertop sink! and matching light blond wood furnishings! A cheerful orange wall. Great bed covering. A medium sized fridge, vintage microwave (easy to operate! just spin the dial) Bathroom had also been redone. Shower was nice. The color scheme and scale of the furnishings was pleasing to eye. And I'm an artist. I grew to love the front door pain fails, it was artsy quirky and kinda cute. I had stayed both at the cheapest place in Oakland and an extended stay hotel in Alameda in the weeks prior. This one was better than both in my opinion. Great value for the money, simply and tastefully furnished, clean, and within walking distance of a safeway supermarket, target, chipotle, laundry, pharmacy, FedEx office, and many other restaurants.

It was cheap! Bare basics but clean and comfortable for a solo traveler. Peets Coffee in the same parking lot is a huge plus in the morning.
