Room was immaculately clean!
But room location (dark corner with alley outside window was pretty scary for an older woman travelling alone. And people upstairs ran/walked stomped around all night.
Our room was perfect, clean, comfortable and maintained. We would definitely stay here again when in the Berkeley area. Many thanks to the new owners and their staff!!
The facilites were great, but the reception was always empty.
We had to leave early and haven’t received my refund yet. We left Monday 19th we dropped the key by the reception window.
I enjoyed my stay, but was disappointed by the front desk staff keeping the door locked while I(black man) waited outside, despite there being space inside as another (white)couple completed their transaction.
Hotel is clean, well maintained, and reasonably close to the Berkeley campus (about a 30 minute walk). Trader Joe's is nearby and there's a good breakfast place across the street (Nations). Rooms are small and don't have space for much beyond the two beds (minimal sitting room for example). Few amenities other than parking and the basic room (no ice machine for example). But if all you want is a place to crash at the end of a day, this is a good option.
The two ladies that checked us in were great. The young man working at night and in the morning acted like he didn't want to be there. The motel is clean, but the rooms are pretty warm and stuffy unless you run the air unit in the room.
Overall it was a pretty good stay - good value, friendly staff. The room was a little small, but perfectly adequate. The only issue was something so ridiculous that I have no idea why it hasn’t been fixed. The mini fridge is essentially impossible to open. The cabinet door opens one way while the fridge door opens the other (see the picture). If the room was large this wouldn’t be a problem. But the room is small, so the cabinet door bumps into the bed meaning the fridge door can only be opened a couple of inches. It’s fixable - swap the hinges on the cabinet door.
