“The Jack London Inn presents a budget option in a prime Oakland location. While some rooms offer considerable space, be aware that past issues include lingering smoke odors and noise from nearby railway activity. For travelers prioritizing location and price above all else, it's a consideration, but manage expectations accordingly.”
