Dottie

Stayed here with my family when we did college drop off. This was an excellent choice as we had rented a car. The drive to and from was not bad and worth it if you like a quiet get away from the bustling city. Although adjust drive during "rush" hour, it was normally 15-30 mins. Worth it for us as we saved a little money. Additionally, we were near the shopping center so we were able to picking up missing items for our kids dorm.

Plan accordingly because you are 20 minutes away.

A reasonable alternative to staying downtown or closer to CMU campus, as the hotel is located in Homestead, which is just across the bridge connected to Oakland.
