DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina

10/10 Excellent
"I love this hotel. LOVE. But recently I’ve encountered where the AC/heat doesn’t work. My phone in the room didn’t work. Couldn’t call out. When I told the front desk they could only offer more blankets. It was quite cold. And now there is construction going on in the marina with the guys screaming and the pounding going on. :( At 8 am- it was a rude awakening. "
