We booked this place online. It sounded nice, next to the waterfront, not far from San Francisco. It was absolutely awful. Instead of a peaceful waterfront, we were in a suite next to a very busy freeway. As it turns out, all of the one bedroom suites are located on the busy freeway side of the hotel. It's difficult to... more

We stayed here instead of San Francisco as it is only a 15 min drive. and the rates are so much cheaper. One side of the hotel faces the marina and the other side faces the freeway and railroad tracks. We had a room on the freeway side ,but really didn't hear any noise. The room was typical Homewood Suites... more

This is a nicely maintained suites hotel with a very service-oriented staff. We got lots of smiles and hellos from everyone who works here. The free breakfast every morning is excellent. Hot entrees with a wide range of pastries, scones(!), etc. to compliment them. As mentioned by other reviewers, the hotel is right on the freeway. And I mean right... more

Second time staying here for several days of business. Last stayed here in Aug 2006 and couldnt have been more pleased. This trip was a little different. First word of advice to anyone staying here, ALWAYS get a room that faces the marina...not the Freeway (I 880). It is ALWAYS heavy in traffic and you will never have quiet. Knowing... more

Corporate people beware, the rate most companies negotiate are on the freeway side! It is not in any way quiet... If you do not mind hearing trucks and cars zooming by your window all night and morning it is not a bad place to stay. They call the Interstate 880 the city side! How about Trains and cars to look... more

Moved to this hotel after a quite nasty lodging situation at ESA in Alameda. This hotel was absolutely wonderful - spacious suite with a very comfortable bed, the pillows were heavenly soft! I was not able to get a taste of their dinners (free and offered certain evenings throughout the week) due to my busy schedule, but their breakfasts were... more

Stayed here recently for 14 days. Front desk and staff and extremely cordial. I was impressed by the lobby, patio, breakfast, and manager's happy hour. Hazel is a doll! The front desk will give you the required utensils for a cook-out on one of the several gas grills out on the patio. The rear view of the waterway and marinas... more

We (parents and a 7 year old) stayed for 6 nights. We checked in at 11 pm in a tiny suite (I could not unfold the sofa bed). When we complained the next morning, the staff were incredibly responsive and moved us to a suite overlooking the marina. Excellent front desk & very responsive housekeeping staff. Not luxury but great... more

This is NOT a real Homewood Suites. This is an older hotel re-branded as a Homewood Suites. The rooms are not near as large , clean or comfortable as a hotel built to be a Homewood Suites. The room I was originally given was located in the front of the hotel facing a major Interstate in Oakland. The noise from... more

In my room was also small kitchen and study desk with internet cord. Front desk staff very friendly and helpful. On the property is offered complimentary transportation in... more
