Emeryville Hotels

Room is spacious with view and amenity look friendly.

Internet connection is slow. Car parking is expensive.

I like the bathrooms and set up of room

The kids that were unsupervised scattered through building The noisiness The front staff

Location happened to be right for me. They charged more for delux double which was a little bigger but the hotel itself not good enough to charge more for that extra. Booking was no problem

Overall it was ok and staff were kind. The price was a little high. May be prices all high in that area. They asked me credit card for in case of room service. I dont know that $50 was actually charged and redunded back.

Great location! Easy free parking. Staff was nice. It should be half the price for what you get.

There was water leaking from the ceiling. The carpet is gross. Terrible smells. There was a man in the parking lot who appeared to be selling drugs, as evidenced by the stream of visitors he received over night. There is no fridge or microwave as advertised (none available when requested). Only one working elevator.

great pool, nice bed

Every hotel should have their elevators. Never waited more than 5 seconds.

Kitchen was reason we chose site. Our fridge was broken and was not repaired sufficiently for our 3 day stay.

Front desk staff helpful but manager was UNRESPONSIVE to multiple phone calls.

No cooking utensils or dishes in kitchenette

Very clean, comfortable accommodations. Great central downtown location for business. Nice hot breakfast included. Good value.

I like the fact that the hotel was closed to everything that we needed from restaurants, bars and drugstores. The hotel staff were very friendly from the valet attendant to the front desk. Our flight got delayed and they were able to accommodate our check-in time.

We understand that parking is an issued around the city but we thought it was expensive for the hotel to charge $45 for valet parking and there are a lot of homeless people walking around. I wouldn't walk around the city by yourself at night.

Es war sauber.

Der Preis war unverschämt. Die Lage so lala und eher laut. Parken und Frühstück teuer.

The location was perfect! A couple steps to the water front where you can board the fairy to San Francisco. Staff was friendly check in and out was easy, bed was very comfortable.

room was a tad outdated but was still very clean and nice. Hidden parking charges and fees

No fault of the inn, but if you can't sleep through train whistles all night long, you won't like it. Otherwise no problems or complaints.

Not safe !!! Had to park down 2 blocks in parking garage !!! No hotel parking like listing said !!! No deals like we were PROMISED FROM KYACK !!! You could tell our ROOM WASNT CLEAN...THERE WERE USED TOWELS EVERYWHERE AND WHEN WE CALLED TO COMPLAIN ALL THEY SAID WAS HUH THATS STRANGE !!!! Lame not worth it if your looking to go to a show and dont want to worry about your stuff...THEN DONT STAY HERE !!!! I work at hotels and this was by far one of our worst experince !!!

I loved the room and the space in the room. When I walked through the hallway it smelled so good....awesome experience!

fridge/microwave

It's been years since I've stayed at Jack London Square. It's definitely gone up a step. Waterfront Hotel is an easy access location - both for driving and the train. Great restaurants both right in the Square and a short stroll away. The rooms are clean and comfortable and it was surprisingly quiet even with all the events during our stay.

The ONLY drawback was the hallway maze to our room. If we just followed the numbers we eventually got there...but no two paths were the same. Our coffee maker was broken but they delivered hot coffee to us immediately on request. The TV was also out but the cable was replaced while we were out for dinner. Perfect service.

Good price. Clean comfortable, no frills room. Attached to a fantastic country kitchen/soul food spot.

When we arrived, they listed off everything they'd advertised that was under maintenance: the elevators, pool, gym, and air conditioner. If they had advertised these conditions in advance, I may still have considered it a good deal for the price but it was rough to get all that news after a long flight.

Nice room size, friendly staff, free parking, continental breakfast, great location. Definitely would stay here again

Our shower door didn't shut all the way so water leaked out.

Staff was very responsive. Booking was easy. Quiet. Inexpensive.

Room showed significant wear and tear. Could have been cleaner.

good location, friendly staff, clean somewhat updated room, good value, I left before breakfast, 4:20AM had good coffee. Would stay again for budget stay.

My room and bathroom

The view sucks,it's dated needs renovation badly,no exciting feeling to be there...I had jet lag and fell off to sleep and I was very hungry when I woke up and so around 12:40am I got up and went downstairs to the very old candy/vending machine.The machine didn't take any bills and it has no debit card swipe and so I went to the front counter and the person there said that it only takes coins and so I went back up 3 flights to my room and but luck I had change.So I'm looking for the soda machine and it was upstairs and it was out of everything but the diet drinks.Not happy at all....Why does it cost $3.00 for a small drink? Then I had breakfast Saturday morning and I was just too through when I had just swallowed powdered eggs.I paid $170.00 a night and you mean to tell me that they can not afford real eggs?Then I get a cup of what I thought was apple juice and it was so nasty! And then I got a cup of orange juice and that was gross too!!! They only added about 5percent of juice and the rest was water... I mean REALLY???? Never again...

Good breakfast.

The hotel room was a nonsmoking room, however our sheets and the room all smelled like cigarette smoke. There was a mixup about our reservations - we had been billed as a no-show the day before. It seems to have been fixed, although I haven't gotten my credit card bill yet to see if I was actually charged for the extra night.

Rooms were fine. Hotel was clean.

Reception and bar service awful. Card keys did not work. A/C stopped working. Small, crowded lobby. Shattuck area is not inviting.

I've stayed here several times over the last few years; I had a flawless, enjoyable experience each time. This last trip they even held some rather bulky packages / equipment which had arrived a week early for work, without question. The staff is always friendly, rooms are immaculately clean, and the location (right across Allston from the Downtown Berkeley BART, a block off Berkeley's campus, and close to several good dining experiences) is excellent.

The room, facilities, and staff are great.

Breakfast could use some work. It was okay, considering there is no kitchen on site. But it wasn't even good catered hot food.

Nice bathroom, had mini fridge and microwave, very quiet.

Beds were quite small, room could be cleaner, quite expensive for what we received.

The bathroom looked recently remodeled with granite shower walls, counter, and floor tile. There was a large flat screen TV with directTV. The room had a refrigerator and microwave. The bed was comfortable. The location was good. The price was good.

The room was dark and small. There is traffic noise from the street. Worst of all the room smelled sour and the air coming from the heater - AC unit was stale smelling. The continental breakfast was very basic, but I didn't expect much for the price we paid.

Bed was comfortable

Too noisy in the morning

Would give negative stars. Dirty. Cum stained sheets. Smelled like mold and mildew. The guy working the desk the entire time was awful, offensive. Was like pulling teeth trying to get him to provide clean sheets. Awful. Don't recommend to anyone besides whores and crackheads.

The location is great (North Berkeley) near plenty of restaurants. Exterior is quaintly decorated, interiors are nice and have a home-y touch.

Unfortunately the walls are very thin so be prepared to hear conversations clearly from the adjacent rooms. The water lines are especially loud. I am not a light sleeper but it is difficult to rest when you're woken every time a neighbor turns on a sink. Additionally, like many motels of this grade, the WiFi is totally overloaded. It is possible to connect to the network and check your email if you're patient. Expect to get internet connectivity in 15 second intervals every 2 minutes or so.

If you like good old-fashioned funky motels, you'll love this one. It could be anywhere in America, but it is a bargain in Berkeley. And the sushi bar which shares the parking lot is terrific.

Has a wow factor. Lovely decor., down to earth staff and great food. Quiet. We had a good price. The location was perfect

The room was small, felt cramped. We were stunned by the local taxes and fees - $93. I might stay out if the area next time.

There for a university tour on a Thursday, had a great stay. Room was comfortable and clean (for 4 of us on two double beds). Room was much bigger than SF hotels we had been at earlier in the week. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Lobby was comfortable and the restaurant was surprisingly good. Overall, great place for a short stay.

Loved the look of the place from the outside..altho you quickly feel like an inconvenience being shuffled out of the way. The hotel is rich with history and has very nice decor..the room was big, with a big bathroom.

The trexk to the room was ridiculous, having to take two elevators and very long walks on different levels while carrying your things. The room floor needed vacuumed, you could feel stuff on the carpet. After we checked in, we left to go get dinner and you can't get out of the gate without a special card given at the front desk. Well guess what- oh, and it cost $30 for this parking privilege.

Wonderful location. Grand old building which has been well maintained. It had been some years since I last stayed there and the place seemed in better shape than it was.

- staff is terrible. The staff said that the reservation with 3rd party cannot received Hilton HHonor benefit. very Sucks - Room Service is terrible as well. Try to connect a lot of time, no answer.

Excellent family pool and hot tub, comfortable beds, easy access to a walking path on the waterfront, exceptionally friendly staff

There is no complimentary breakfast, not even a box of corn flakes and coffee. Breakfast buffet was very expensive, so we drove out to a grocery store for food. For the in room coffee maker three guests received three packets of coffee and 2 creams!

Nice secluded location, private.

Parking , & coffee is only available til 9:30 am

Excellent friendly and smart staff! Quick drive thru tunnel to Oakland. And five minutes from Ferry to SF wharf 41. Easy walk to Target and Safeway. Clean, airy room. Will stay here again.

We asked for ice and got it right away. The bed was comfortable.

The walls and floors were so poorly sound insulated that we felt we were living WITH the people next door. We heard every word, every TV program, and every time they flushed their toilet or showered. Luckily, most people were quiet after 10:30 PM. Lastly, for the price we would have expected rooms to be upgraded instead of plastic showers and routine accommodations. Maybe if we had a quieter room, the other elements would not be so troublesome. However, we didn't.

Breakfast was good with decent variety of foods.

The week day front desk staff not helpful or friendly.

Clean , quite , great location for travel thru Oakland airport , would , stay again

Location , cleanliness and friendly staff

I loved how comfy the beds were, bathrooms could of been a lil bigger for the type of room I stayed in, but it got the job done, lol

I didn't like that I needed a separate ticket to get out.

I liked the waterfront area, the pool, the breakfast was good... It was quaint & nice outside of the room.

It wasn't super conveniently located to stores or anything else for that matter. The room was small. The shower was a tiny closet with no tub.

Staff was nice. By the water. Nice pillows.

Rustin the bathroom. Small room. Rooms are adjoining and there is a lockes door which other people tried to open. Ceiling in the bathroom was cracked. Bed was uncomfortable. TV remote didn't work.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a minor issue with the room which they attempted to resolve immediately. It was also nice to have a decent size room with a separate sitting and sleeping area after having been in a room for about the same price across the bay that was a third the size. It was also 2 blocks from the Fireside which is a bar that one of my friends opened. That was the only reason I was staying in Alameda at all ;-)

The pancakes were pretty lousy (Sam liked the waffles though). The air conditioning would not shut off in the room and we had to have someone come and fix it. They were super helpful though and offered us another room.

Clean and people were very nice there. The decor in the room was wonderful. Bathroom had a stool for ladies like me to put on their makeup. Full breakfast was the best of all. If we want to stay overnite again we would be staying there.

No complaints at all!!

The check-in folks were friendly.

Your description of having rooms on the bay side or a 'view of the city' was very deceiving. The view of the city was a view of interstate 880, and was incredibly noisy since you're located right on the edge of the interstate. It was the noisiest room I have ever stayed in, and there was no way to get any sleep. The rugs were not clean, and the plumbing in the room was poor.

Pool area was too noisy our room was located right above it.

Dirty! Really dirty! I don't know why they got those good revives, I travel a lot, and read reviews before I book my hotels, this one was a totally mistake!

The room , the colors , and the cleaness of the room

I didn't like that you could not renew your stay

Staff try hard to please

This was my second state; the two were about a week apart. The first one was good, but there were lots of problems this time. The main one was with the key, which failed repeatedly. Also, I tried to print something in the business center, but it does not have a printer and the one at the desk (which was supposed to be accessed via the business center) also failed.

Night manager who checked me in was very nice and professional

The hallways had a musty smell

Great location for Raiders fans. airport shuttle. Great staff

We always get king suites with Hampton Inn, and have yet to be disappointed. This particular suite seemed a little bigger than average. Perhaps it was the floor plan.

The lady at the front desk had a really bad attitude. Also, the sheets were pretty nasty. It looks like they have never been replaced for years.

The bed was very comfortable, fridge/microwave working good, nice air conditioning unit.

Stayed for 3 nights, room got cleaned only once, had to re-use the towels, no shampoo, not enough soap
