A hotel in the middle of everything in Berkeley
If you want to be in the middle of everything in Berkeley this is the hotel. The staff is great but the rooms are a bit old now. This time the hotel had problems and for days the WiFi did not work that was disappointing.

Has a cute older charm to it and the area was very walkable to many bars, food options, and the Greek Theater. Had a few cleanliness issues and the walls are paper thin.
