I've been staying here semi-regularly. I agree with most everything that has bocastephen mentioned. The breakfast is really a disappointment. The eggs are somehow gritty/grainy, and the sausage is steamed?

I haven't had any issue with parking.

Others have mentioned the 6th floor, but despite several stays as a Plat I haven't been on that floor. 5th floor every time for me. Perhaps its still closed.

The rooms look nice, some are more updated than others. I agree also with cawhite above, I really do not like the LED lighting. Its a very very cool white, and its very focused. In the day time I struggle to get a good illumination of the room. there are very bright spots and very dark spots, which makes it hard if I try to work a few hours. There is almost no sound insulation in the rooms too. I can always hear others in the hallway and doors slamming.

There's a Renaissance Club Sport across from the Pleasant Hill BART station (though probably technically in Walnut Creek). I have friends that have a membership in the Club Sport part there.
I've stayed at the Renaissance once, but I don't think I would stay there again. The bath linens were old and tattered and they were all discolored. The TVs in the room are small.
