It's okay.
Posted Jul 7, 2015 on HotelsWe just like to get a motel room and then take the ferry to San Francisco. So the motel is just a place to drop our things and sleep. It's not a fancy place, but it serves our purpose.

It's Okay
Posted Jun 16, 2015 on HotelsThe hotel was fine and the room was clean and beds were fine. However, the air conditioner worked poorly which made the room hot and muggy

Best Hotel in $70 - $100 price range in Bay Area.
Posted Jun 8, 2015
Pros: Clean, quiet, friendly and all new amenities.
Cons: Updated satellite receivers so that Pay Per View movies can be purchased. Add a swimming pool.
Location: The local marina/yacht club a mile away with seafood restaurants. 6 Flags close by. Large park, hiking trails in Pinole (10 min by car) & Berkeley.
I have tried at least 10 hotels in this price range in Bay Area, this is the Best, bar none. From the time that I checked in the management was friendly and helpful. I was not expecting this because of the location. But management has dealt with it so well that it is like an oasis. All new remodeling and appliances from a new 2 door refrigerator with a wholly separate freezer with lots of room, satellite television with movie channels, new tub/shower combo, nice new sinks and counters outside the bathroom (with coffee maker). There is a new air conditioner/heater that works wonderfully; new windows that block out all noise outside; newly painted walls with long mirrors and excellent lighting. There is also a microwave, clothes rack, dresser and comfortable chairs. *** The shower has a good stream and a new powerful exhaust fan. There are new curtains that fit perfectly and do the job and comfortable chairs, WIFI, and the bed. The bed is the best. It is new, very comfortable, feels almost like a pillow top, and at least 25" to 26" off the floor. The night outside lighting and security is superb -- no unwanted or unauthorized visitors, cars and valuables are safe. I slept with my room window open all night, every night of my 5 day stay. Local marina, grocery stores, restaurants all in close proximity -- freeway entrance/exit within a quarter mile. I stayed in hotels more than 90 days in the bay area in the last year and this is my first positive review.

Great value for what you get
Posted Jun 5, 2015 on HotelsI stay at Express Inn every year (this being my third time) during BottleRock music festival in Napa. The rooms are worn but clean and comfortable, the staff friendly, prices super affordable (especially compared to Napa), and the location is just a quick drive from Napa. Free wifi, satellite TV, microwave and fridge are definite perks. I guess some could view the neighborhood as sketchy, but I've never had problems or seen anything suspicious, even when I've returned from the festival late and had to park on the street.

You Get What You Pay For
Posted May 25, 2015
Pros: Quick access to the freeway, refrigerator access, and microwave in room.
Cons: Wi-Fi that is more reliable
Knock/Double check room number before you enter a room
Clean rooms in between clients
Move the toilet paper holder
Location: Wicked Wine Run, Six Flags, restaurants, etc.
The Express Inn is conveniently right next to the freeway. When you check in, you are given the remote to your TV and your room key with the access code to their unreliable, free Wi-Fi. The rooms are labeled "non-smoking," but the rooms are stuffy and give off a stench of cigarette smoke. The bathrooms are interesting.....The toilet paper was almost ready to switch to a new roll when we arrived, the holder is almost out of reach from the toilet, and you have to exit the bathroom, walk across the room and around the corner to wash your hands No matter how you adjust the shower curtain, the water leaks all over the floor and the shower head only points to the wall. In the morning, the owner burst into our room, no knock, mistaking our room for the room next door. He did quickly close the door and followed up with a prompt call of apology from the office. Upon gathering our belongings to check out the next morning, we discovered lots of candy and wrapper under the bed that was not ours.It was cheap place for four girls to crash overnight after a local event, but like I said, you get what you pay for.
