The rooms are comfortable and I've been pleasantly surprised at how quiet they are, particularly considering the location (Oakland in general tends to be LOUD). Valet has been very quick to deliver car - they utilize one of those automated text systems and IME it works great. Drop off can be a bit of challenge though because they're lightly staffed. Breakfast is decidedly mixed - service is super friendly but the food is IME pretty bland. I've never been charged for anything. Uptown location is excellent. Definitely my favorite property in the east bay.
Is your experience still consistent half a year later?

And regarding your upgrade experiences, have most been weekday visits?
