Hawthorn Suites by Wyndham Livermore Wine Country

The hotel staff were amazing, super friendly and helpful. The appearance of the hotel is modern. The room and beds were super comfortable. Very spacious, and not to mention such a great value for your money. Located right off the freeway and just a short mile and a half drive to the beautiful downtown Livermore Nightlife.

Check in was easy and the gentleman who was working the front desk was friendly. The room was dated but clean. The bed was just okay. The breakfast was horrible. Didn't expect anything fancy, just your regular hotel offerings but the omelette were burned, the sausage greasy, the bread selection was dry. But the worst thing was my husband finding hair in the scrambled eggs. If you just need a bed there are cheaper options.

Five days a week i drive 110 miles roundtrip through one of, if not the worst, commutes in California: San Jose to Tracy via 880/680/580/205 through The Altamont Pass. Cars and trucks of all shapes an sizes clog all lanes trying to make it home, to work or wherever! One hour and forty-five minutes is normal. Once in a while, like two days ago, a vehicle crash, even in the opposite direction, shuts down the entire freeway and chokes off the route for me and thousands of my fellow commuters leaving only a couple of two-lane rural roads as alternate routes. Google maps estimated my commute time at 5 hours which meant I would arrive home after my usual bedtime of 9PM. Decision time: Sit in traffic for 5+ hours or get a room at the Hawthorn Suites in Livermore. Guess what I chose? In a matter of minutes I booked a room (through the Hotels.com App) that was clean, comfortable and reasonably priced. The friendly front desk staff heard about the crash and when I told them I was a last minute booking, the young lady smiled and said she was happy I decided to stay with them. She checked me in quickly, told me all about included breakfast in the morning and off I went to my room. I washed up, set my alarm and climbed into the comfy bed. My head hit the pillow and I was out until the next morning. Scrambled eggs, sausage, hash browns, waffles, oatmeal, yogurt coffee and juice were all ready at 6AM as promised. I loaded up, grabbed a second cup of coffee and headed back to my office for another day. Unexpected bonus: My morning commute was cut in half! Double unexpected bonus: My evening commute home was lighter than normal. Thank goodness for Hawthorn Suites Livermore. You turned a potential nightmare night into a restful, peaceful night and better next day. See you next time!
