The Ramada staff was very helpful and kind. The rooms were very clean and the breakfast was nice. Fresh peaches! They had cucumber and citrus water in the lobby, and it was refreshing. The hotel was close to Bart so it made it easy to get to San Francisco!

I got a smoking room that night, that was the worse way to learn what not to do. Room look nothing like the picture, so set your expectations low. The parking is pretty small for a place like that. The floor in my room wasn't mop clean or something because the floor was sticky. I like their bathroom, water pressure was strong and it's the handheld shower head. I booked the room last minute on Expedia, got a deal. I did took my business somewhere else the next night.
