Disliked: Amenities
This was previously a nice place to stay. Now though, no desk in the room, no closed captions on the TV, No ice in the icemaker, no breakfast. Also no Guaranteed parking- they'll give you a pass, but another guest can steal your spot and force you to park on the street. And then on top of all of that they charge me for the room even though I had paid in advance through Travelocity

The gardens are lovely. The property is several one houses turned to hotel rooms and not in real good shape. I’m in my 70s and had to haul my suitcase up the stairs. Nobody warned me about this or offered to help. Everything was functional in my room but the people ahead of me at checkout complained about windows that wouldn’t open and no hot water. Go somewhere else.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location in Berkeley is convenient for walking to stores and restaurants and the UC campus. The Inn is nicely landscaped and feels homey rather than like a motel chain. The service is outstanding for any request. Coffee in the lobby is delicious. The rooms that face the street are a bit noisy due to traffic, but the courtyard rooms are quiet. I highly recommend this inn.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was tiny with no place to hang clothes. The curtains were hung with safety pins and the door jam was cracked as if someone had tried to break into the room. As a result, the door did not close completely. They advertise large and spacious rooms and charge a premium price, but the room I ended up with was very small and cramped.

Good hotel, well-located. The place is a little funky but was clean and had everything I needed. The outdoor tables were great for eating outdoors.

Dingy, unfriendly, desperately in need of care, horrible bed. I had stayed there prior to the pandemic and it was quite good. COVID seems to have caused it to go to the dogs. The exterior on Telegraph seems the only thing still kept up, everything else is worthless.

It was a cute inn we stayed for 2 nights and honesty for the price it’s what’s you’d expect. The staff is pleasant and willing to help. Right across the street is a coffee shop and about a 15 min walk down and you’re on Berkeley campus. The area wasn’t too bad there’s a few tents and homeless wondering around but they were not a problem. The only thing is you can hear everything from the people passing in the halls and the walls are thin so beware

The towels were nice and soft. The general location is good - restaurants within walking distance. Everything else was mostly very sub-standard in Room 608 for my one night stay. There were 3 windows with no window coverings, one of which was in a toilet room with a large window right next to the toilet! The twin bed was made in such a way that the top covers barely covered the mattress, no less a full human! It was difficult to find an outlet for my phone charger and when I did, it was definitely not in a convenient location. I will not stay here again and now feel even more leery about the photos that are posted for hotels! This one's photos were very deceiving of what the rooms and property really are!

The hotel is nice and everyone that works there is pleasant. But the room had a bad layout, the bed was next to the door the couch was butted against the fire place. Parts of the room looked unfinished and or dated. Could use some maintenance for minor dings and definitely they need new furnishings. The bed was comfy and I slept well and also the location is right where the action is in Berkeley on telegraph. Good times
