Waterfront Hotel Review
The only waterfront hotel in town, this thoroughly modern, pleasantly appointed Joie de Vivre property sits among the appealing restaurants (including the hotel's own) of Jack London Square. Some rooms in the hotel's five-story section overlook the square—Read: cement—and have shared balconies; it's worth an upgrade to a water-view room with a private balcony facing the water. Some rooms have fireplaces.
