Best Hotels near Dinosaur Hill Park, Pleasant Hill

No option but to use the compulsory $20 a night valet parking. The design of the atrium inside creates so much noise, that even on the 8th floor in your room you can hear restaurant/bar and people noise. Do not accept rooms 13 or 14 on any floor as there is a service elevator between those rooms that constantly goes and sounds like your own personal elevator in the room. Staff on the first night were less than helpful or understanding, but the following morning after about 3 hrs sleep, staff did give us a room move. --- Could staff training be improved to have them experience a night in one of these rooms so that when a guest has such a problem, they can deal with it promptly? I know they were not responsible for the design of the building, but those are the problems they should be able to rectify immediately. As a Hilton member on arrival, we got some complimentary drinks, but our encounter with the surly and plainly rude bar tender, convinced us we were not going to use up any more valuable minutes of our lives staying for another. (Can't recall his name, but he was late 30's bleach spiky hair and fortunately for him I tipped him whilst still processing how rude he was - 'thank you' are 2 easy words .... even if you don't mean it. I can speak form experience having tended a bar for 2 years in Scotland where 'tipping' is not in the vocabulary of drinkers, yet it still paid for me through College. Oh, and the early finish time for breakfast through the week was not helpful. Never stayed at a hotel that I can recall having 9am finish for breakfast where the doors are pulled closed on 9am!

My stay here at the Marriott Bonvoy has been a absolute pleasure. It is a diamond in the rough. I am a local resident and yet I never knew this hotel was here in the beautiful city of Walnut Creek. The staff here is excellent. I have had the opportunity to talk to the manager Mark in passing and he has always greeted me with a smile and offered any assistance that would make my stay here better. The front desk morning and evening crew, Valet, Maintenance, the waiters/waitresses, the security, housekeeping I have enjoyed talking to them all and I know their names they are apart of my extended family now. I have stayed at many hotels and this hotel and stay has been the best thus far under the circumstances that brought me to the Bonvoy which makes the hospitality I have received all the better.

I recently stayed at this Motel 6 for a overnight stay. The checkin was easy and I had no issues. The room provided all the amenities I would expect for a budget motel. I will stay here again in the future.

Stayed with my 2 dogs. The pet friendly room was spacious and incredibly clean. I love that their pet friendly rooms don’t have carpet, they have hard wood instead, so I’m sure that helps keeping them absolutely spotless. I’ve been to plenty of hotels that just make their pet rooms the old/dirty/run down rooms, and I really appreciate that this hotel doesn’t do that. I was in town to visit family, and our stay was perfect.

The location of the hotel is very good and very convenient. There was a little episode when I checked in. The hotel said that I had not received Trip.com payment, and I repeatedly paid the money at the front desk. Finally, with the help of Trip.com customer service, the customer service corresponded quickly.

This place is beautiful located right on the water on the other side of the San Francisco bay. Not only is there a beautiful view of the city. But you can also see the Bay bridge and the Golden gate bridge very clearly. The hotel itself has been updated It was very clean, our room was comfortable and it is affordable. I would recommend a room with a view of the bay. There is a great aquatic park that the hotel is connected to which makes for beautiful walks and gorgeous sunsets I would definitely recommend a stay here.

Very old American style, the rooms are clean and tidy. Because of the old style, the facilities in the room are different from the modern ones. The room size, bed and bathroom are smaller. Breakfast is an ordinary American breakfast, a variety of bread jams and coffee and juice, very convenient. It would be better if the price could be cheaper. The key is to be too close to the University of California, Berkeley, to go to school to work or visit relatives should be a good choice.

I have stayed at this hotel multiple times throughout the past three years going back and forth from the Bay Area for work. Each time has somehow been increasingly worse of an experience. From the countless drug addicts seen staying at this hotel to watching a manager speak down and berate a new hire that had difficulty understanding English while checking in. I thought that maybe these were just circumstantial situations to my first few stays. However, with this last encounter having ”rust” and hair throughout the shower tub, I was pretty much at my end dealing with this specific hotel/location. You'd believe Walnut Creek would be held to a higher standard than what you'd expect out of a motel in Concord or Pittsburg. Considering the extreme measures people have gone to with Covid I would have thought the hotel would take pride in cleanliness or take responsibility for the pure negligence of cleaning the bathroom. I believed it was blood but I was told by a manager through a phone call it was rust. As somebody who has ran a real estate investment company for most of my life I certainly find it hard to believe this is rust or that it would not be addressed immediately if it was. Also find it hard to believe it was rust when there was splatters and hair throughout the tub not on the metal part of the shower drain but on the tub itself. Nevertheless, I did not appreciate being talked down to on the voicemail that was left for me and I was sure to let them know that. I also had told them I'd be making it very known about the disgusting conditions of this hotel and the pure disrespect I was shown. This is not the first bad experience here. It's bad every single time. I was offered free parking but in my opinion it's just the principal behind it and it was truly just disgusting. After talking to corporate on the phone about the situation and all the experiences for an hour the gentleman had offered me points to try and rectify the situation. I do not even know what the points equivocate out to dollar wise and this was after I made it a big deal; also why would I EVER stay at an IHG hotel again. Especially an organization that doesn't take any responsibility for the poorly ran facility. I hope that everyone that sees this review picks a different hotel to stay in. You can find a much better hotel like the Marriot for roughly the same price and you won't have to deal with any of these issues that I have dealt with every time. I am not one to cause issues nor to write a negative review but this place should honestly be labeled a Motel or be put out of business. I gave this property location and corporate plenty of opportunities to make the situation right and to take responsibility but neither were done. The manager made it out to seem that I was a scum bag looking for a hand out and they had already given me points so that should have been good enough. This has overall been the worst hotel experience I have ever had in my life. PLEASE GO ELSEWHERE!
