Here's some lodging options in Alameda and nearby that I posted last year for the grand opening.

The best choice is the Coral Reef Inn. It's a block from the beach

Coral Reef Hotel and Suites
400 Park St, Alameda, CA 94501
(510) 521-2330

I wholeheartedly agree with this option.

Isn't there another place near the Coral Reef where the rooms actually overlook the beach and the bay? I can't remember it's name, or if I'm simply confusing it with the Coral Reef.

We were at that Marina Village place not too long ago. It is kind of damp and musty, so I personally wouldn't go there.

Webster is a fine street in the day, but at night the bars and many liquor stores attract some seedy characters, so I would avoid hanging out there for long at night.

Also very true. Conga Mike and Denise reserved the "Honeymoon Suite" at the Days Inn for the continuation of the Forbidden Island New Year's Eve party, and we noticed some seedy characters guarding the front of one of the motel rooms, bodyguard style, serious scowls on their mugs. I've since driven past there several times, and have looked for those guys, and they are out in front of that room every time! So there is either drug dealing or prostitution, or both, or something else seriously shady going on there.

There are also a couple of B&Bs in Alameda

Webster House Bed & Breakfast Restaurant & Tea House
1238 Versailles Ave, Alameda, CA 94501
(510) 523-9697
The oldest house in Alameda, built in 1854.

I think the owners of this place sold it, and it has been turned back into a private residence. It's actually on our street, so we will scope it out tonight.

Coco Loco and I are really looking forward to this event! :D
