Mare Island Cheap Holidays

Hotel Shattuck Plaza is perfectly located for a visit to UC Berkeley, less than a block away. I found everything about the hotel appealing, a nice mix of historic and modern. We had a fanaastic view from our room of the SF skyline and the golden gate bridge! The standout at the hotel was the staff. I especailly appreciate the young lady who checked us in, she made it so seemless and made sure the valet took care of our car, then greeted me by name throughout our stay. Looking forward to being a regular customer here when we come up to visit our daugther at college.

The hotel is nice and great location but

It was a character property very close to the university of Berkeley campus, and close to all of the venues. The street was lively and the bar downstairs was a nice spot to have a coffee in the morning, laptop time in the lounge and a cocktail in the evening. Gym was small but serviceable. I would encourage travellers to bring good ear plugs. Some road noise, general noise from neighbors could impact sensitive sleepers. Also parking was sometimes a challenge as the two above ground lots were almost always full or had only 1 spot available. If you have a large car it is somewhat difficult to get in and out of the spots and tough to turnaround as someone new always parked in the non parking areas.

Friendly staff, nice spacious rooms. I didn't expect the full fridge and stove and dishwasher!
