A Home Away from Home

The staff were all outstanding, helpful and friendly. Everyone was responsive and someone was always available. The location was convenient for visiting different Berkeley neighborhoods and to transportation (buses, BART, Amtrak). I would recommend this hotel to friends.

10/10 Exceptional

This is where we stay when in the East Bay. It's economical yet feels like what might be a more expensive boutique hotel. The rooms, the beds, the service... all great.

Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel was exceptionally clean. The only quibble I had with my stay was the scent of the toiletries, which I found unpleasantly sweet. Also, one of the bottles wasn't working properly.

This is the most consistent hotel I stay at. They are always clean, quality, and affordable. Best place to stay in Berkeley.
Tyler, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff when we arrived was exceptionally nice. This morning’s departing front desk mgr might want to consider a different job. Needlessly surly and unpleasant.

From the front desk check in to the clean room to the roof top experience. This is a nice hotel. I would stay here again.
Tracey, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was clean and quiet and perfectly fine for a short stay. There were not a lot of great dining options in the neighborhood. The staff were friendly.

We stayed one night. The hotel was clean, comfortable and uncluttered. Ordered breakfast (fee) and it was delivered to our room at the time we chose. The staff were friendly and check in was quick and easy.

Comfortable and Clean

It was a great find! It was clean and comfortable and had a valet parking garage which is rare in Berkeley. We thought the roof top couches and fire pits were a really nice feature. We will stay again!

This place was the best hotel stay I have had in years!
