Location is perfect for travelers visiting UC Berkeley or Downtown Berkeley in general. Easy access and most of staff and hotel was awesome. Liked the cleanliness and functionality of the rooms with separate kitchenette. Interaction with staff was great except one interaction with front desk person who didn’t keep their promise. Would recommend highly. Can’t wait to visit again.
