So sad to see the closing of Howard Johnsons
This is the best place to stay in Bay Area. It's quiet, clean, close to everything, including family & friends. They are the nicest people. It is VERY sad that it is closing in January.

A good place to stay.
Clean. Friendly staff. 5min walk to train station and easy train ride yo San Fran. 30 minute walk to university. Bus stop right outside hotel - easy bus ride to university. 15 minute walk to downtown Berkeley. I’ve stayed here twice and the area is safe. Would definitely stay again.

4/10 Fair

adequately clean, but very basic
The room was clean and bed was comfortable. Beyond that, not much to recommend it. Bathroom door did not fully close; fridge barely cold enough; smoke detector covered with plastic(!!); furnishings pretty beat up.

2/10 Poor

Think twice before booking
Found dirty shorts in one of the drawers. Had to ask for basic necessities since it was not found in the room. Basic toiletries, I.e. shampoo, soap, etc. Room smelled badly. Parking was incredibly tight. It was not a good experience at all.
