Polly, Aug 2020

Pros. The hotel was close to campus, clean and the staff was very nice

6Okay
JR, Jan 2017

Pros. The neighborhood. Excellent restaurants, bars, shops in walking distance. Awesomely diverse.

Cons. Older hotel. Could use an update but still no problem. You are downtown so it is a little noisy and there are homeless people around. But....this is what Berkeley is so don't be surprised.

9.1Wonderful
Charles, Jun 2016

Pros. The room, facilities, and staff are great.

Cons. Breakfast could use some work. It was okay, considering there is no kitchen on site. But it wasn't even good catered hot food.
