Perfect location for a weekend in Berkeley. We were there for a show at The Greek. the patios off the room are very nice and allowed for a morning workout! the floor wasn’t the cleanest in the bathroom/room and that’s my only real complaint. at first the entrance was a little confusing but we had no issues the whole trip. nice to be able to get an espresso first thing in the morning. nice staff. parking is super close, just a little bit of a process but worth the location.
The staff was fantastic. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. It really made our trip so much more enjoyable. The cafe downstairs has great coffee and the people behind the counter were also very nice. The supermarket next door has really good healthy food options for people who are visiting Berkeley.
Not a generic hotel experience-- Excellent location in heart of Berkeley, easy free parking, clean, spacious and stylish room, excellent bed, friendly staff, reasonably priced. Gourmet grocery next door, free coffee in lobby at popular cafe. Only negatives: while we experienced no security problems, anyone can walk in off street to hotel interior without key or ID. Internet was bad (although Verizen cell coverage was good), and the cable TV was intermittent.
The location is excellent, and close to good restaurants, UC Berkeley, and decent parking. The staff are friendly and organized, and checkout/check in were both easy. The bed frame, baseboards, walls, and floors were dirty, BUT the towels and sheets were pretty clean (except for a few hairs!) Also, pretty awful water pressure in the shower, but it's an old building, so that's not really their fault! Overall, if you're on a budget, this is a great way to be right in the center of Berkeley, just don't go expecting a luxurious experience!
The room was very nice, but the bathroom had a very musty odor. Perhaps an essential oil diffuser could help with that, sweet grapefruit is wonderful. The little veranda was cute and I really appreciated having the refrigerator in the room. It would have been great to have herbal and green tea options in addition to black tea. Thank you!
Great location, nice decor, clean and delicious coffee
