When arriving at the hotel it was difficult to find parking because there is none at the hotel. We had room #319 and it was terrible, I had to use the bathroom and to my disbelief the toilet had “Urine” all over the seat and it also smelled. I asked the cleaning man to clean the toilet and he told... more

I stayed here for almost 10 days. I noticed that I had bitten by bug here and there, but I was not sure if they were from bed bug. Last night I woke up feeling itch on my arm, and put light on to find a medication. It was 2am, and I found 4 bed bugs on my bed (they... more

I have stayed at this hotel several times over the years and I can agree with the others that it once had a few problems but the issues have resolved and the problems are GONE. The most accurate and helpful review would probably be the one by DonAsTauno. I recently went back to stay and to my delight, I noticed... more

I live in San Diego, CA. My daughter goes to UC Berkeley. I visit my daughter in this hotel twice a year for the past three consecutive years. I love it, and I would absolutely stay here again. The Hotel is in an ideal location especially for some one new to Berkeley. It is within walking distance to the movie... more

very good location and very good price. The people there are very helpful and give us a lot of good information. more

For the price and friendly staff, it is a bargin in downtown Berkeley; walking distance to UC Berkeley and many shops and restuarants. On top the that, the hotel keeps us "in touch" with FREE internet access and Free incoming phone calls. Definitely a "Stay" for me next time. more

I'm surprised at all the negative reviews on this hotel! I've stayed here 50+ times in the last 5 years while visiting relatives in Berkeley. Of course, for $69/night, it's not a five star hotel, but the rooms are clean, the location is great, and the people in the lobby are very friendly and accomodating. Once when I was here... more

I expected to find this "hotel" on TAs list of the dirtiest hotels -- but instead I find it ranked #10 in Berkeley, so I decided I need to add my review from when we stayed there in Feb. 2006. The only people who I could think would rate this hotel well would be students from third-world nations or college... more
