“Rooms are clean, and the staff is helpful, though some guests have noted noise issues and inconsistent maintenance; plus, it's not really walkable to restaurants. The location is convenient for UC Berkeley, and TVs work well; however, Wi-Fi access could be unreliable, and some rooms might need soundproofing. It's a decent option if other hotels around aren't available at a better price.”
