See her several times of her period of two weeks while my mom was at the Stockton regional rehab rehabilitation hospital, after a fall that broke her hip. Super close to the hospital super nice super clean and the people are outstanding. I would stay here again anytime. The bed was wonderfully comfortable
Pleasant stay for a friends wedding! Less than 30 min walk from several coffee shops. Quiet and peaceful stay. Oddly no charging outlets near the bed , but other than than , was a great easy stay ! Thank you
This hotel with it being a few years old now. Still holding together pretty well. The rooms are very spacious. Our room had a full size fridge, and microwave. The bathroom was very roomy. The beds were comfortable. Decent view from our room of the water area. I did over here. Some other guests were talking about how their room had a funky smell. But I did not experience this in our room. Might be time for a little upgrade. I will definitely stay here again.
I recently stayed at the University Plaza Waterfront Hotel while passing through Stockton. The hotel itself was okay—clean enough, and the location by the water is nice. The room was decent and met basic expectations for a short stay. That said, there were a few issues. There seemed to be a lot of non-guests hanging around—friends of guests coming and going, especially in the evening—which made the lobby and hallways feel a bit crowded and less secure. It didn’t feel unsafe exactly, but it wasn’t as quiet or relaxed as I expected. Parking was also a challenge at times. The lot filled up quickly, and we had to circle a few times to find a spot, especially later at night. Overall, if you’re in town for a quick stay and don’t mind a livelier atmosphere, it’s manageable. — Kemoshire | Honest reviews. If I visit it, I review it.
