My family of four stayed at this hotel at the end of July when visiting friends and we were very pleased. It has easy access to the freeway, shopping and best of all-our friend's home. I would recommend having the buffet breakfast included in your purchase price of the hotel. We were able to do this through Priceline.com. It is actually really good, not just a continental. The rooms are nice w/ a small kitchen; including fridge, dishwasher, and microwave. The have a nice pool and spa which the kids really liked. We went to 6 Flags the next day and it only took us about 35 minutes to get there. Plenty of time to wake-up, eat breakfast, and drive over there for their 10am opening. Our only regret is that we didn't stay longer.

I have stayed here on two separate occasions, a total of 4 nights. The property looks nice. The rooms are older, but somewhat updated. The beds are comfortable. If you are not facing the back (pool) then you will be facing a busy service road and a busy highway. It will be noisy, all night. I am a light sleeper and this was a problem for me, even with ear plugs. They switched me to a back facing room (which I had requested originally, but the request was lost) right across from my original room, which was convenient. It was quiet. However, there was hair on the towels and - honestly, I am in the medical field, I know what I am talking about - dried blood on one of the knives in the drawer. This is really, really bad. ALL of the silverware, dishes, etc. should be run through the washer after a guest leaves, not just the obviously dirty. People touch more than one spoon or whatever, when they pull it out of the drawer, naturally. In this case, I think someone reached in and cut their finger on a knife. I called down to report this and the staff showed appropriate concern, but what could they do? It was gross. The bedside lamp was broken also. Also, on two occasions, once while showering late in the morning and once while taking a back about 1 am (after work!) the water was not hot, just lukewarm. Finally the AC units in the rooms (they are actually in the bedroom portion, are VERY loud - effective, but loud. I could not sleep with mine one. I cooled down the room and then turned it off. In the summer, or on an unusually hot night, I think this wold be a considerable problem. I did not try any of the breakfast. The coffee was good. The staff were OK - the night staff was a very helpful woman (Aisha?) but during the day it was a bit hit or miss. OH YES - You will HAVE to sign a "Good Behavior" form - honest to god, I --- you not!! No urinating off of the roof, no driving cars into the pool. I personally found this offensive and stupid. People who are going to misbehave are going to do so whether or not they have signed a form. People who are not going to misbehave don't need to sign a form regardles. I was incredulous at this aspect of the sign in process. Maybe you won't mind, but I found it irritating. And for whatever reason, they would not accept my company's business card to pay in advance (I work for a medium sized company) so I had to pay with my own card - one more little annoyance.

First off, really enjoyed the hotel and the location. Good suite (2 bedroom), exceptional cleanliness and great amenities (breakfast, workout room,pool,parking). Something they don't mention is you are really, really (really !) close to a nice shopping/restaurant area that would be very handy indeed if you were there for a week or more (we were there 4 days).
Pleasant Hill/Walnut Creek seem to be very nice, high end areas as well.
That being said, the hotel is 250 feet from the freeway. The rooms in the front suffer from highway noise. Get a room/suite on the sides or in the back.

We recently stayed here as a base while visiting the San Francisco and Napa Valley area. It is very convenient to the BART. We had a two room suite and it was very clean with comfortable rooms, two bathrooms, a living room and kitchen area. The free breakfast was very good. We weren't bothered by any noise, even though our room faced the highway. We found it well-suited to our needs.
