DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina

6/10 Okay

"Stay ok air made some noise hard to sleep ar night. no water pressure had to keep asking for towels when we were three and would leave two only. Restaurant closed at 10 am had to drive for late breakfast staff was not hotel friendly."

Travelodge by Wyndham San Francisco Airport North

8/10 Good

"The hotel is currently undergoing a property-wide room renovation (according to the staff), and the investment is noticeable. My room appeared recently renovated with updated flooring, furniture, and a remodeled bathroom. The room was clean, functional, and looked significantly better than on previous stays. A few minor cosmetic items still showed the property's age, including some wear around the bathroom mirror and a few older fixtures. These were relatively small issues compared to the overall improvements being made. The biggest remaining concern was the mattress. While the room itself felt refreshed, the bed was still very firm and was the weakest part of the stay from a comfort standpoint. Front desk staff indicated that new mattresses are on order, although details were not available regarding the replacement schedule. One thing I appreciated was seeing the continued investment in the property. I have stayed here over several years, and it is encouraging to see ownership improving the guest rooms rather than simply maintaining the status quo. Overall, this was a solid stay. The renovation work has significantly improved the appearance of the rooms, and if the mattress upgrades are completed, the guest experience could improve even further."

Embassy Suites by Hilton San Francisco Airport Waterfront

8/10 Good

"Hotel was clean, and worked well for our family. The airport shuttle was very useful. On a couple occasions we asked for extra linens, only to never have them delivered, which was a pain. The hotel is also feeling a little tired. Some pretty significant wear in curtains and paint in public spaces, and the mattresses were some of the worst I've experienced in a Hilton property ever. They should have been replaced years ago."

DoubleTree by Hilton San Francisco South Airport Blvd

10/10 Excellent

"I liked how kind the staff were & the attention to details they had. The staff were always enthusiastic and ready to help. The room itself was well put together and clean. This trip was a 10/10 since I got some amazing sleep while staying here."
