Concert Stay with Friends
The overall stay was nice and the staff was very friendly. Although we did have some issues with cleanliness and our charger outlet next to the beds not working. When we pulled out the sofa bed from the couch it was dirty. The whole out next set on top of the dresser next to the bed did not work so it made it difficult to charge all of our devices. The breakfast in the morning was amazing and so was the staff but they can do better with the cleaning.

My family and I stayed here for a concert the The Greek and immediately when I checked in, Kelly, was amazing! She was friendly, accommodating and gave us a food voucher for the rooftop bar. The rooftop bar was beautiful and our suite was amazing. If I ever come back to Berkeley, I know where we are staying!

Loved that this property was pet friendly. Saw alot of homeless and mentally ill individuals around the area. Beautiful bay view at a distance. Regardless, It was a pleasant stay. I will be back.

Great Hotel, Location & Staff. Parking Nightmare!
It is a nice, modern, clean and inviting hotel. Right next to the University. The split bedroom/livingroom kitchen is awesome. The staff went above and beyond (especially the cleaning staff). The parking is horrendous!!!!!! I missed the fine print that its $54 ($59 after fees) daily and you have no public parking!!! Once they take ur car, you've got either, 3 guys taking their time or 1 guy running his ass off (depends on the time of day). Im not sure if the parking company can see this, but the guy you had on the morning of 9/9/2024 6am, is awesome....Pay him his worth!!!

I stayed there on 8/24 and had booked via Expedia, paying the full amount through their platform. Upon check-out, I was charged at the hotel for the night which I had already paid via Expedia. I called and spoke to Faith twice, and she assured me that I would get credited and that it was their mistake. It's now been more than 8 business days, and I still haven't received the credit to my credit card.

Very nice clean hotel . Friendly check in. There was a concert in town and I know college was starting so I imagine it was more busy than usual the restaurant was accommodating but service was slow, however I do believe it was a very busy weekend. I’d definitely stay again!
