Staff members were helpful, but there are things like the pool being advertised (or shown) on their website that in fact isn’t part of the property—it’s a communal pool that is about 10 min away.

The front desk staff, house keeping and the staff at the Bristro 880 bar/lounge were all very professional, helpful and heart warmingly kind. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone on a business or pleasure trip to Newark, California. 💯
