Guests say
Guests appreciated the friendly and attentive staff, with several mentioning exceptional service experiences. However, many had significant concerns about the hotel's location, describing it as sketchy or uncomfortable, particularly at night. Cleanliness was also noted as an issue in some instances, with guests reporting hairs in the sheets and other cleanliness concerns. Overall, while the service and staff stood out positively, the location and some aspects of cleanliness were major drawbacks.

Pros (+) 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.
Cons (-) 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.

Pros (+) The only thing we liked is its location, right next to Jack London Square.
Cons (-) The bathroom is tiny and outdated. no tub for my children. Advertised "city view" was actually view of the back alley/parking lot. $25 valet parking was mandatory, no self parking. not going to recommend or stay there again.

Pros (+) The location is nice, good restaurants within walking distance in the area. The staff was pleasant and helpful and the wine & cheese hour was a nice touch. Everything was great with the exception of the thin walls, which unfortunately makes it a deal breaker for me.
