Nothing like being woken up at 5:30am because someone decided to heat a pop tart in the microwave and set off the fire alarm.
Staff has been great.

Exactly what I needed. Great location for my activities in the Berkeley/Oakland/Richmond area. Clean, quiet, updated room; clean bathroom; mini frig. New or updated hotel. Hot breakfast included with great variety. Good price. Accommodated a very early check in. Everything you expect at a Holiday Inn but hard to find elsewhere.

I came to the Holiday Inn because I had booked a room at another place sight unseen that was really low quality. Since I had stayed at Holiday Inns before I assumed that I would be able to have a much better time while I received some very stress full Medical Treatments. But I had a terrible experience the rooms were great they were clean nice everything else. The front desk staff though except for the lady at night she was great was so rude to me. Yana who works during the daytime was very unhelpful treated me like I was a bother that's all I'm going to go into it I don't even need to say anymore just not happy with the experience at all I will never go back there again the management everything except for housekeeping was great and the girl at night

The hotel checks all the boxes for a Holiday Inn Express. The key features in my mind are the larger than average rooms, strong water pressure and true blackout curtains.
My only complaint about the room is that the mini fridge is loud, especially when you are trying to sleep! I wish hotels would only install mini fridges on request.
The breakfast spread is pretty generic and what you'd expect from a HIE. I was surprised to see no bananas or Greek yogurt though.
The staff I interacted with were very average at best. They did the motions of their jobs but there weren't any smiles or passion.
I would stay again if I'm in the area but I wouldn't seek out the hotel.
