This cottage was lovely. Honestly, I wouldn't change anything about it. Patty was very helpful. The kitchen was very well equipped. The bed was quite comfortable for two. Some of my favorite things there were the flowers. They were everywhere! She obviously has a very green thumb. We would love to stay there again.

We had a wonderful stay at Patty's cottage and it was everything that we had hoped it would be! Patty was there to greet us upon arrival and show us the ropes and was always lovely and friendly when we bumped into her during our stay. The cottage was clean and well stocked with everything that we needed to cook, make coffee and just enjoy ourselves. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of clean towels and linens. The location could not be better, walking distance to just about everything you need. We had a small issue with a smoke alarm that decided to start chirping right after we arrived, and after telling Patty about, it she had somebody there in 15 minutes to change the battery and resolve the problem. I will definitely stay here again when I'm in Berkeley and maybe we'll be able to convince Patty to join us for a glass of wine next time too.

wonderful stay at adorable cottage in terrific neighborhood

My two teenagers and I enjoyed our stay in the beautiful cottage in Berkeley. We appreciated the well-appointed home, with all the amenities we needed - washer dryer, dishwasher, refrigerator, etc. The host even provided cloth bags for our grocery shopping! We would happily stay there again - it's a real gem

Cute house

It was comfortable & cute, but yard, small that we knew, wasn't quite what we expected for sitting out there if wanted to. Not kept up. We pretty much stayed there for location for graduation & area. Great for walking & restaurants/coffee shops.

This Berkeley Cottage is located in a quiet neighbourhood with a nice shopping area nearby. It was the perfect place for us to recoup and enjoy some downtime while exploring the East Bay. We appreciated Patty’s hospitality and the parking space she made available to us.

Great location, wonderful space

This is a small cottage behind the main house in my favorite Berkeley neighborhood (walk to the movie theater, bakeries, coffee shops, grocery store). I liked the radiant heating and warm floor in the winter, comfortable bed with great linens, and lots of light yet private. It's no longer new, and some of the furnishing is showing its age, but I found the place very comfortable. Parking in the driveway was great, as parking can be tight in this area. Patty was an excellent host.

The cottage is very nice and cozy. The host is very sweet and accommodating. We could easily walk to UC Berkeley, many restaurants around and shops - we didn't need a car until we went into SF. I hope to stay again.
