  • Overall: Rating of 3.4 out of 5

    "Overall, it was a great hotel." source Orbitz

    "It could have used a new bedspread, but I'd stay there again, if it weren't for very thin walls and noisy (all night loud TV)neighbors." source Hotels.com

    "I recommend it to someone who is not worried about amenities but wants a safe, low-cost place to stay in Berkeley." source Travelocity

    "Great place to stay for travellers on a budget." source Expedia

    "Other than the noise I would stay there again." source Expedia

  • Clean: Rating of 3.8 out of 5

    "Great, friendly staff, cute and very clean room/shower, VERY quiet considering that it is on a main thoroughfare and that nearly the entire place was full." source Orbitz

    "The rooms are much more sparse than they are depicted in the photos, but they are clean and neat." source Travelocity

    "Older hotel, but clean and well kept." source Expedia

    "Its clean and well maintained and only 4 blocks from BART public transport that will take you straight into the city in 15-20 min." source Orbitz

    "The room was clean and comfortable, had a little refrigerator and microwave, a wonderful FAN mounted in the corner of the room (which, along with the cool California air, made sleeping quite comfy, and drowned out any noise." source Travelocity

  • Location: Rating of 4.1 out of 5

    "The hotel was located in a bad neighborhood and was far away from everything." source Hotels.com

    "It was affordable, clean, safe, and centrally located." source Travelocity

    "The neighborhood and room were what I expected for the price and area." source Hotels.com

  • Value: Rating of 4.4 out of 5

    "Great Rooms for a reasonable price." source Hotels.com

    "Only price and proximity to UC Berkeley were worthwhile." source Travelocity

    "Still, the staff was pleasant to deal with and I really liked staying there." source Expedia

  • Room: Rating of 3.5 out of 5

    "Rooms were fine though staff was pretty noisy in the morning." source Hotels.com

    "The first room was surprisingly luxurious, but the walls were paper thin. This time the room was just decent; the fridge had no freezer; the water faucet gushed on with the power of Niagara Falls; the water pressure in the shower was dismal." source Expedia

    "I wanted a smoking room, they changed for the next two nights immediately, even though smokers are "dinosaurs" in Berkeley." source Expedia
