    What a lovely find! We wanted a room near the Oakland Scottish Rite for the Gaskell Ball. What we got was a huge room with a balcony overlooking the estuary with birds and a gorgeous sunset. The room was clean and in good repair. The bed was far more comfortable than a recent Marriott. It was quiet and the morning breakfast included an espresso machine and tasty cheesy eggs. Bonus points for free EV charging (2 stations!) that changed our morning plan from “find charger” to drive home without a stop. 100% would stay here again.
