It's truly disappointing to learn that your visit fell short of your expectations, Deisha. Had our team been made aware of your concerns, we would have made every effort to resolve these issues or provide accommodations that better met your needs. We hope you'll allow us another opportunity to improve your opinion of us.

Found out it cost $35 to park at the hotel. Our toilet did not work and there were wrappers on the floor of the room when we got there. The view of the marina is beautiful and quiet and you can see San Francisco in the distance which is spectacular at night.

Thank you for allowing us to welcome you to the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina, Bryan! While we're happy that you appreciated our incredible setting and unforgettable views, it's disappointing that your room fell short of expectations, and we will share your feedback with the housekeeping team to ensure improvement going forward. You will find our parking rates comparable to similar lots in the area, but we regret if our charge took you by surprise. Please visit us again soon at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina so we can work to earn another star or two.

The staff at the front desk were very difficult to work with when I was trying to extend my stay. I was working during the day from my room, and the housekeepers were extremely loud screaming at each other in the hallways. Also, I put a do not disturb sign on my door, but the housekeeper still knocked. The air conditioner didn’t turn on when I set it at 72° in my room was 74°. Every time it got too hot I had to go jiggle the thermostat to make it work. This place has gone downhill over the last couple of years. It all started when they started charging $35 a day for parking. One day my scramble eggs weren’t cooked.

Liked the Marina view room I stayed in. Liked the free freshly baked cookies. Did not like $35 / night parking fee. We used to be able to get a hotel room for that. Most of the hotel smelled like pet urine.

This was very convenient for us as we were visiting family in nearby Albany. Hotel is nicely appointed, pleasant, and comfortable. Pretty location on the water (marina). Not walkable and surrounding area doesn't look great, however, hotel campus is large and beautiful throughout. Pool crowded with birthday party, a little cramped and dark. Pricey overall.
