Oaktown Roost is a hidden gem in uptown Oakland. I appreciated the security measures in place and the staff attentiveness. Good central location in the town. Definitely coming back in the future

Super clean and neat. The staff also very friendly. Only issue is the parking by street sometimes is limited.

One Night Only

Oaktown Roost is a great budget-friendly spot in the heart of Oakland. It’s easy to access, well-located, and has just enough charm to make it memorable. The building has character, and while it can be noisy at night, they provide earplugs—a small but thoughtful touch. The common area is cozy and well-designed, with couches, a pool table, and really solid coffee (served there, not in your room). The bed was comfy, the shower hot—though the water pressure could be better. Communication from the staff was excellent. For the price, it’s a solid stay with all the basics covered and a few nice surprises. Five stars for value and vibe.
Bronson, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely staff & beautiful space - but not quiet

Beautiful place and lovely staff, and I would stay again. Things to know: 1. It is loud. There is a lot of city street noise, just what comes with being downtown in a city. But if you are a light sleeper it might not be ideal for you. 2. Very thin walls. You knew when the guests on either side of you were awake, watching tv, or on a call. 3. Noise in room: The mini fridge (which was great to have in the room) but made lots of noise in the night and the A/C in the (which is awesome that they have AC as it was a particularly warm week) but it would drip lots of water at night which was pretty noisy

8/10 Very good

Delightful place. Definitely not a chain: no tiki bar, no workout room, no pool. Also no elevator, although most rooms are on the 2nd floor. I had a room opening on to a delightful interior courtyard; very quiet.
Gordon, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a fantastic stay at Oaktown Roost. Our hallway king room was very spacious, very comfortable, and spotless. The rooftop/courtyard between rooms was a thoughtful touch—it added privacy and made for a perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful morning coffee. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and they had a gated parking lot. The location was ideal—close to bart and the Fox Theater. It was a great experience all around. Would definitely return.

Great place. Was traveling for work and wanted something downtown that wasn’t a chain. Had an excellent time and will stay again.
