Marriott Vacation Club®, San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"It was in a very convenient location. I got my room before the checking time. I left my luggage at the desk and one hour latter, I was notified my room was ready. The location is excellent. You can walk to different places."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina

10/10 Excellent

"The room I stayed in building 4 was clean had an old smell and the balcony was dirty with bird droppings. The latch to the door was broken but still locked just needs an upgrade. There was a popping sound coming from the walls so I could not get a good sleep. Also don’t stay on the side where the parking is because you get all the traffic noise from the parking area. Overall the place is well maintained and semi friendly staff but the level of attentiveness was not the same as I saw with other customers staying there- but still cordial and respectful. I enjoyed the tranquility this place brings and the walks on the port. The park near by was a great spot to walk the fury pets and environment was all that I expected. The pool was clean and the jacuzzi was much enjoyed and needed after long walks. The boat house Resturant was not my vibe but good food. The breakfast is overpriced but did appreciate the port view. Definitely worth staying here and will visit once again to see if I get the same impression till next time. Worth the money."

Fairmont San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely love this place! Gorgeous lobby, helpful staff, great views. The daily activities were fun and our bartender in the bar was a delight! The only disappointment was the coffeeshop. It needs to be updated and the quality of the coffee and pastries really needs to match the food city that it's located in. Other than that a great stay and will happily return!"
