Reviews and Ratings
The motel offers a mixed experience with limited amenities and some cleanliness issues in the rooms, but the service is excellent. The location is convenient for exploring downtown Berkeley and attending local attractions. Dining options are limited, but the facilities are well-organized.
My stay was pleasant overall, with spacious and comfortable rooms. The service was a bit lacking in communication and friendliness. The location was convenient for local attractions but noisy at times. The dining options were limited but decent.
The hotel is conveniently located near downtown and UC Berkeley, making it ideal for business trips or weekends in the Bay Area. While the rooms have a fresh and clean smell, they are on the smaller side and come at a higher cost considering the limited amenities provided. The service was friendly and accommodating, despite a few communication hiccups regarding incidental charges. The location's convenience near restaurants, Trader Joe's, and entertainment venues compensates for the reputation of high prices in the Bay Area.
