Not very clean and pretty loud music late into the night.

8/10 Very good

So happy to stay here Staff were very helpful at check in as there was no parking in front of the hotel-but they helped make it work. The parking garage nearby was more expensive, but easy to access

Efficient and very clean room w/ private bath. We had a good experience at the hotel. The location is perfect. Would definitely stay there again. I used a parking SpotHero app online which found a nearby lot for overnight was $18. Reasonable.

10/10 Exceptional

The location was ideal across the street from our concert venue, and with restaurants and shops nearby as well.

10/10 Exceptional

No short term parking at entrance, but people seem to double park with impunity. Ring the bell and someone will let you in; take elevator to Mezzanine to check in. Real keys--one for front door, one for the room. Comfortable bed. Fridge with separate freezer (no ice tray), single serve coffee maker, microwave and hot water kettle. King room with bath had closet with hangers, iron and ironing board. Hair dryer in dresser drawer. No outlets in bathroom, mirror over desk. Nash Cafe next door open 5pm til late. 2 blocks to Downtown Berkeley BART station, 2 blocks to edge of Cal Berkeley campus. Lots of restaurants, shops and bars nearby. Check for Farmer's Market schedule. Note: parking at Center Street garage is (in September 2026) $25 per day PLUS $25 overnight.

Close to Berkeley campus, this is an older building with layers of paint. The lobby is a bit old fashioned and the room was clean with clean beds and bathroom. Limited amenities and a fridge in the room.

Rooms were very clean. Staff was nice and helpful. Hotel restaurant was delicious. The historic 100 year old hotel was close to the venue and other restraunts and cute shops. Very charming. Id stay there again and again.

4/10 Fair

if anybody remembers the movie, The Blues Brothers, this room was not that far from what Elwood blues lived in. it’s old and dirty and I know they didn’t change the sheets because they smelled like someone sweat in them all night long. I went to the Walgreens bought some disinfectant, my own shower gel and shampoo because the place needed to be disinfected. I wouldn’t have stayed here except it was the first week of school and every hotel in a 20 mile radius of Berkeley was already booked up. oh did I forget to mention there was no hot water for a few days but luckily I had an equinox gym membership and showered there and it also gave me an excuse to get a workout in. i’m a single guy staying by myself so I dealt with it, but I certainly would not have brought any family members with me. Great location, but just know you’re walking into a time zone about 40 years ago.

Room was fairly clean, hall smelled like cigarette smoke, it was very loud (both from street and surrounding rooms). The windows wouldn’t properly lock. It was VERY overpriced for what it was.

For the price, good deal with great location in downtown Berkeley and room not street side was quiet. Neat older building design (though a bit tight).

This ex-hostel was a good place to stay on a non-busy weekend. Shared shower with about 10 other rooms. Most were vacant which made it nice for us. Staff was very friendly.

Loved the area and the vibe of the hotel. Very clean, quiet and comfortable. Window looked onto a small but beautiful garden. My only beef was low water pressure in the shower. But overall a really great choice.
Verified review

6/10 Good

I enjoyed my stay although a little bit much for a small room, tv would not work half the time. Bathroom is not included with room unless “upgraded”. Staff were nice and friendly. Food options nearby, it can be a little noisy, the beds were nice and clean and very comfy.

No heat, but clerk brought a portable fan heater. Not much sports on TV, no ESPN. Nice room for the price. Make sure you book a private bath!

The area is in great location and close to everything. Parking is a huge issue. Property and rooms are in poor and outdated condition. Everything is old, falling apart, towels and bed sheets were dirty with yellow spots, discussing. I would never stay at this hotel again.

Great stay and location

Very nice and friendly staff. Rooms are good quality and are worth the price. Rooms feel very safe and sound insolation is pretty good. Me and friends have stayed here multiple times (4) because the location is very good for eating and bars, as well as being close to Berkeley college. The biggest downside is there is no parking, and the nearby parking garage that can accrue a pretty high fee if you need to keep it there for many days. When I visit San Francisco I will always stay here because of the convenient transportation as well. Great little hotel!!

This is a quaint hotel perfect for seeing a show at the UC theatre. It has an ancient vibe going for it. The only thing I could say that was hard about the stay was the lack of parking, the sheets were a bit stained, and the stopper on the shower/tub was stuck in between but all and all a good stay. Especially if you plan on getting out of the bars or show late and need a nosh the Nash Cafe was open for some bomb food.

Location is the best quality. Bed was small and uncomfortable. I know you are basically paying for location. Would be nice to update the rooms, and get some better beds and pillows. Small conveniences like ice would be nice as well.
Verified review

2/10 Poor

The staff member at the front counter was nice and welcoming. But where shall I begin? First of all, I was given a room with one bed instead of two. I was quickly moved to a two bed room, which I appreciated. When I went to look for the bathroom, I was shocked to find there was none in the bedroom! They have communal bathrooms and showers. I have never experienced this in my 30+ years of staying in hotels. Why it was not clear that all the rooms to not have a bathroom or shower, I do not understand. The quality of the bathrooms were not the best. This hotel really needs an upgrade. Bathrooms are old and dingy. The room had mold. There was a loud humming noise until 2 a.m.! My daughter left and stayed with a family Member who lives in Berkeley instead of staying in this hotel. I will not stay here again. The pictures online look nothing like the rooms in person. Beware!

6/10 Good

The hotel is very old & sockets were unreliable. No AC but they did supply a small fan. Parking was awful. The hotel does not provide any & Berkeley is extremely busy all the time. It was difficult to find a parking spot. Towels were spotless and a good supply was provided. This hotel is close walking distance from Berkeley University.
