Stayed here with my niece who was touring Berkeley. This property was super convenient. I wish it had self park. The only option is to valet or find street parking which was nonexistent. The rooms were suites that were clean and had a kitchenette. Spacious enough for us both to have our own space which was great. Complimentary breakfast was amazing with so many options...it was tough to decide. I really had fun with the make your own waffle station. The hotel.staff was very friendly and made check.in and out easy. Oh, in the rooms, you can stream to the tv which was nice but there are several good channels available too. Would I stay here again? Absolutely! I also recommend it if you are visiting Berkeley and need a hotel.

Great location downtown near campus and nightlife. 20 minute walk to Memorial Stadium. Study Hall Bar was a great place to grab a bite and drink before the game. Room was spacious and perfect for 4 friends.

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!
