The room was very clean and the bed comfortable. They had discontinued the breakfast service, and they were unhelpful when I needed to arrange a late checkout.
The property is run down, but clean and friendly staff. I chose it for the free parking and easy access and great location. I would stay there again but it’s not an impressive or fancy place. Serviceable.
The property is a bit old and gloomy. But the room was clean and spacious and well kept. Convenient location, there are several good restaurant right across the street from the hotel. Also a mile away from a target if you are running low on personal care items.

It was a comfortable stay and my room and bathroom was clean. The gym was out of service during my last day of stay, which was a little disappointing but no biggie.

It's a basic hotel that accepts pets for an extra fee. The free breakfast is worth every penny (went elsewhere). I mean, for a reasonably priced hotel, it's fine... the place felt safe and there were some restaurants in walking distance.
Stayed here two nights for CAL University Homecoming Weekend. Hotel grounds are clean and staff were professional. We felt safe staying here. Plenty of parking. Rooms were clean. Hotel provides breakfast but the selection is lacking, no eggs, no apple juice and no pancakes. They had coffee, toast, waffles, cereal, bagels. There are restaurants near. Overall, nice budget hotel, we felt safe and its close drive or bus ride to CAL. Go Bears!!!!
Great location, safe and wonderful staff. Rooms are comfortable. Breakfast was very basic and workout room not very well air-conditioned so it was pretty stuffy. Otherwise I would choose to stay here again in the future.

Breakfast was not as expected, but the room was fine. Location is great.
The walls and curtains in our room were dirty and or stained. There were absolutely no hangers in the closet. Bath towels were very small, even for the average person. No hot breakfast items.
Room, bed and sheets clean and comfortable. Parking for free huge plus in Berkeley! Staff nice. Breakfast was simple but perfect to start the day. Room 227 needs slight improvement, sink slow drains, refrigerator not very cold, bathroom door hard to close. Air conditioner old and loud but kept steady cooling throughout night. Shower must have recently been remodeled, the shower had incredible water pressure!
Very reasonably priced convenient location walking distance to shopping and restaurants. Free safe parking lot. Rooms comfortable and mostly clean. Bed cover was dirty but sheets and pillow covers were clean.
