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.

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.

I stayed here for two nights for parents weekend at Berkeley. It’s very clean and a nice hotel. The only problem and biggest problem is that my room ( actually all the queen rooms) was facing the main street so there was a lot of car noise specially at night when you want to sleep. Other than this it was a good hotel to stay in.

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!
