Super cute and comfortable and very lovely staff. A few places in the room that weren't spic and span, but they were minor. The location is convenient, the cafe is great and seems to be a real neighborhood hub, which we loved. Thanks for the stay!

Lovely little hotel above cafe
Conveniently located to Chez Panisse (across the street). We had a nice stay for one night. Staff was very friendly. Room was mostly nice and clean but it looks like they forgot to mop the bathroom floor. There were dirty shoe prints all over but the rest of the room and bathroom was clean. We would stay again if in the area.

Very cute little hotel in berkely, a bit far from the Greek, but its a good walk. Parking is well lit, but shared with a supermarket. Perfect for that short weekend getaway.

Great stay!
Great stay at this hotel, it had everything I needed and appreciated the coffee in the morning. The bed was a bit firm, but it was okay. Would stay here again.
