    There was no breakfast provided. Also, the mattress cover is so slippery, that the bed sheet is sliding every time you roll. Other than that, the bed was comfy

    Perfect location, quiet clean room.

    Breakfast was advertised as included but a sign said that renovation work meant no breakfast would be provided. No reduction in price for this despite being advertised.

    The motel-designed inn is an easy walk from downtown Berkeley Bart where there are plenty of places to eat or have coffee and a number of entertainment venues. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. ´There was a coffee machine in the room, but no bottled water for drinking. A dispensing machine for soft drinks in the parking lot existed, looked unreliable, but I didn't try it.

    The iron and the ironing board were pretty dirty. The electric outlets on the headboard weren't actually connected to the grid. The area surrounding the hotel can be pretty sketchy at night. Also, the hotel is priced a little too high.

    The bed was very comfortable. The room overall was pretty clean. The AC unit in my room was amazing. No funky smell at all.

    Zero ambience. If you are in your room, it's fine. If you want to hang and soak the vibe from where you are staying, this is not your place

    Fab location (relative to University access). Very well appointed room - nothing fancy, but clean sheets, bathroom, fridge, microwave, closet space, luggage space, strong wifi. Pretty great for the price

    it wasn't necessarily a dislike, we just stayed in the carpeted rooms this time and prefer the ones without they seem even cleaner.

    Their front desk gal who works the swing shift really goes above and beyond. She is so friendly, helpful and wonderful.

    The 'free breakfast" is bad compared to other hotels with free breakfast. Just packaged danish and coffee, basically. And there isn't enough parking in the lot, I had to do street parking at meters which was a hassle.

    The room was nice enough, excactly what you'd expect in the price range. Nothing fancy, but perfectly servicable and clean. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful.

    Your cleaning lady Maria wasn't very nice when she came to my door this morning wanting to clean. I left the day prior for her to clean, she received my request from staff, and she didn't clean. I was gone all morning to go to work, and returned at 2 pm. Today at about 9 am, just waking up, she knocked continuously on my door. I answered. Her attitude was terrible. She insisted she was going to clean right then, not caring if it was an inconvenience to me. About five minutes later I left. She still didn't clean after an hour sitting outside in the cold. I told staff. Because staff went to her, She stopped cleaning other rooms to clean mine. Staff says she's had many complaints. I'm not sure what Maria is going through.

    I am a frequent stayer here, so staff knows me well. I always get treated great. I am accommodated when needed. Front desk has become like extended family, and I appreciate them very much!!!! The young gentleman and lady with pretty blue eyes are very nice to me.
