Hotels near Telegraph Avenue

"Hotel itself is great. We stay here often when we are in Berkeley. However staff are not trained for 5* hotel. Front desk is polite the most. There is no 5* wording and mannerism. Wait staff is indifferent and tired most of the evenings we dined there. A man who served at breakfast in a cafe was consistently dismissive and gloomy. Considering high end prices we expected a bit more enthusiasm and friendliness typical for such properties. That attitude takes away from the experience. "

"Excellent location and comfortable hotel rooms. Quiet room and comfortable bed. The restaurant for breakfast should be avoided: food sat in the kitchen, was cold, inedible. Restaurant staff inattentive."

"Parking fees were unexpected."

"Clean room. TV was broken but they fixed it. Thermostat also broke but didn't get fixed at all. Breakfast was good. Staff were friendly. "

"Staff is very friendly and nice."

"Bathroom was moldy and shower and tub were filthy with black scum in crevices. Hair on the floor indicated that it wasn’t swept after the last guest. Otherwise it was basic and gave what I needed which was a cheap roof, bed, shower. The front office person was accommodating."

"Cute rooms for the rate being charged and very clean. Beware that they may charge your card for a deposit in an amount that is double the room rate — instead of doing a “hold” on your card to be released at checkout. The difference is that by fully charging your card, you will have to wait 3-5 business days to get your deposit refunded. I expressed that this is unfair to the customers to tie up their funds in this manner, and I was accommodated by them accepting cash for my deposit which I promptly received back at checkout. Otherwise a perfect stay!"

"I didnt have any high expectations prior to checking in-- however from the moment we interfaced with the people at front desk- to checking out, every expectation was exceeded. Very friendly, helpful, clean, efficient-- it was all an unexpected treat. "
