Disliked: Cleanliness
The property doesn't live up to the pictures, It is a much cheaper option that other downtown hotels and the free parking is a really nice perk. But it's a basic 2* motel with a light renovation. Bathroom was nicely redone with tile shower walls and tile floors. But there were a few hairs easily spotted on the toilet, 2 of 3 toiletries had fallen off the wall, a giant drywall problem on the ceiling, and both the hotel and street were very noisy. Breakfast was pretty modest and provided for takeout in the lobby which is a tiny area - only hot breakfast option was plain oatmeal packets - who provides plain? I guess that's all that was left at the bottom of the box. Cereals, 1 cup of yogurt, milk, pastry, and apples rounded out the small selection. Staff was helpful and friendly, and the bed was comfy with lots of nice pillows.

The Sather tries too hard to be cool. The bathroom has a barn door that isn't the right size, and offers no privacy. The floor boards were coming up in one spot, there was drywall damage that was poorly repaired, and paint was peeling in the bathroom. Then, the free WiFi keeps booting us out, and the TV loses signal every half hour or so. Not worth another stay.

This is a very good location, and with parking! (near campus), the staff is nice and right there. It's a pretty good second rate motel. My main complaint is super strong smell of cleaners they use but I went over the floor with a towel and opened my window and it dissipated over time. Also, the AC/heat blows on your when you sleep.

The staff was friendly and accommodating. But i must say the hotel is in terrible condition. Bathroom was dirty, the floor was so slippery, there was water damage all over the door frames and the cabinet where the fridge was. The bed sheet was stained, which let me to believe they dont change the bed after each guest, luckily i caught the cleaning service before they left an did change it out for me so i appreciated that. All in all i wouldn't stay there again for the price that i payed.

Not Worth the Saving

The bedding was dirty, and the shower was absolutely disgusting. There was even a used bar of soap left in the shower. The price was unbeatable since it included free parking, which is rare in Berkeley but not worth it. I am all for saving money, but there is a point where it outweighs any savings.
