We ate at the restaurant in the hotel and it was great! Our waiter Paul was wonderful! So accommodating with any request we had. The while staff was so helpful. We had a handicapped person with us and they helped with serving us outside of the restaurant area, so nice of them! Salads were huge and so yummy, so bring your appetite!

Best hotel to stay at! Food was delicious in the restaurant. Full bar and beautiful lounge to enjoy looking out over the waterfront. Rooms were fresh and clean. Highly recommended!

I recently stayed at the University Plaza Waterfront Hotel with a very large legal team. The hotel staff was really accommodating and helpful, even when we had special needs. We had asked for extra workspace and suite space for our team, and we were well taken care of. The professionalism of the hotel showed. In addition, the restaurant had a reliable menu of varied options, and the bar was good enough that we ran up a sizeable tab. The location is convenient to the courthouse and other downtown amenities.

This hotel was really great for our family to stay at along with our team for a baseball tournament. We hung out and played in the grass area by the pool for hours. The staff at the restuarant/ bar was wonderful. We loved that it was right next door to the arena and we took in an impromptu hockey match. The gym had what I needed, however one treadmill was out of service. The only issue we had was with the mattresses. The whole bed moved when you move. I would definitely stay here again though.

First time staying here. Check in was a breeze. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. Rooms were decent. Being a tall man the toilets were to short in height. I wonder how disabled people use these toilets. The bathroom entrance door was also something I didnt like. It wasn't a solid door. It was more like a window door that had frost film over the glass. Even though it did offer some privacy it felt weird seeing a silhouette on the other end. Parking was free , however, it wasn't enough to accommodate all types of vehicles. Larger vehicles where double parked or taking 2 stalls since it was very cramped. The hotel was clean.

Everything that is in the hotel's control is excellent. The hotel was clean. The staff were very courteous and accommodating. A nice plus was having a large fridge/freezer and microwave in the room. Shout out to the cleaning staff because our room was spotless and didn't have a weird smell that typically is present in most hotel rooms. The unfortunate part is that this hotel is in a run-down area. The staff does the best that they can to manage it with security and video surveillance. The fact is that if you could pick up this hotel, staff included with their excellent work ethic, and move it to a better area, it would be a hotel deserving of five stars.

Nice rooms, very clean and quiet. Nice staff. (No continental breakfast and finding the ice dispenser was a challenge.)

If anyone is searching for bargain deals for hotels go over to ʜᴏᴛᴇʟʙᴜʟʟʏ.ᴄᴏᴍ reserved a hotel room on there and these guys had the best rates anywhere! One of the nicest hotels in Stockton. It is very clean, and the staff are great. They are doing well with practicing social distancing. I really enjoyed my stay, and will return once the pool reopens after the pandemic.

First off it's a nice hotel. There is no breakfast and the only way up to the rooms is through the lobby. The rooms are pretty small and the AC only went to 68 but was still really hot in our room. Also the parking is a cross the street. I dont really think this is a 4 star hotel to be honest or that it was worth the price I paid.

Staff is very friendly, I needed to stay more days than originally planned, and they helped me extend my stay. Would definitely come back. The room was very spacious for me and my pup, very clean as well. Loved the patio since everything else was closed, was able to enjoy a couple meals and drinks or just lounge around after work.

The hotel has a decent rate, but the rooms were quite small. The shower was probably the nicest part of the room; the bed was uncomfortable and small vertically. The outside area looked spacious and beautiful, but unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to lounge there. 6/10, would stay again if I needed to be in the specific area.

Very good hotel, nicely decorated, great room and ambiance. Modern look, just wish you had a covered parking lot and more secure looking parking lot.

Incredibly clean, very well set up to distance people. Excellent new security to keep the crackheads out of the hotel and parking lot. Police making rounds in the area quite often. Very very nice rooms and hotel overall. Probably the nicest hotel in all of Stockton

The room was clean and very nicely filled with all the aniemities, fridge, clock, clean towels, and very impressive. Please note though because of Covid-019 the dinner and bar were closed so to enjoy the back dinning area and yard is boring till we open back up.

Relaxing I feel so alone in my life right at this point of my life . When have no kids no one to talk to. IT'S NOT A GOOD FEELING I JUST DON'T WANT TO BE HERE ANYMORE..

The hotel itself was very nice; room was clean. The courtyard was a lot of fun to enjoy but leaving 3 stars because we were informed at check-in none of the amenities were available! We travel full time for work and rely on hotel gyms, laundry and computers (hence why we even booked a hotel.) I understand this is the covid policy but I have stayed at multiple hotels where you could safely still enjoy things like the pool + gym and restaurant.

What a great place to go to. Even though we dont stay there, we go to have some dinner and couple drinks.Food is always delicious, the chefs sure know how to cook and the bartender Kris is always making us feel welcome and he's really accommodating. They have a beautiful patio with plenty seating. If your in town, want to grab some delicious food and drinks and even need to stay a night some where stop by you won't be disappointed.

Very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the rooms and the grounds. The surrounding area is so-so and this hotel is certainly a cut above. Staff are awesome, loved this place. Would definitely stay here again.

This place used to be 5 ⭐️ but this past weekend didn’t feel like a 5 ⭐️ stay. Not as clean as I recall. If the cleaning people lost their job due to the pandemic I strongly urge the Waterfront rehire them! It reeked of smoke and although there are plenty of signs that are posted I witnessed many guests not adhering by them. I am hoping that this is just a one time experience and the Waterfront can get back to the spotless Waterfront I remember! Fortunately I will not be back in Stockton anytime soon.

The hotel staff were great and very understanding when we asked to switch rooms (tv broken, room was far from elevator). The two double bed rooms we had were well furnished, clean and not crowded. The view of the waterfront is gorgeous. We were disappointed that none of our reservation information informed us that because of CA pandemic restrictions the pool and most amenities would be closed. We were also quite taken aback by the parking situation. Spaces were all compact/tight, and by late evening on the weekends, they were extremely limited. Worse of all, there wasn't a true security presence in the guest lot (that we saw) leading to scary situations. One morning we found a gift card shoved in our rental car door as if someone was trying to get in. Another evening we smelt and saw a van of people smoking crack. Obviously guest/public behavior isn't always something a hotel can account for but it was troubling that their only solution was the threat of towing.

Had a great stay. They claim incidentals fee will be refunded within 3-10 business days which I think is a little much, but the hotel is clean, and affordable and right across from the waterfront park which is great when events are being held as you can sit out at the pool and enjoy the music and scene. There are little convenience stores nearby which make purchasing incidentals easy. Overall a nice hotel in downtown for an event or for just being in town.

Room was nice enough. Courtyard very nice. BUT.... NO coffee except in room. Ugh. Restaurant not open on weekends or limited or something.

Needs to a better job cleaning floors and curtains. Old food or some type of cream left on the curtains in the room. Found old hair and other items on the floor upon arrival.
