University Inn & Suites Berkeley

We enjoyed staying at the University Inn & Suites. Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was good to have a good hot shower. The reception at the desk was helpful and breakfast was good to make your own waffles. Liked the inn had complementary coffee and water available near the reception office. The inn also has a swimming pool. There were many excellent restaurants in walking distance. Also the the AC 51B bus stop was two blocks away to go to the university or to the Berkeley BART station.

Basic motel. Bathroom and bed were clean. A bit dated but for the price it is good. Breakfast is very basic…but free! Staff friendly. Two restaurants accross the street and some a few blocks away. Not a an exciting area but the bus to the Bart is quick and parking is free (I think).

Area was a little sketch but security was pretty good. Rooms are dated but everything was clean and comfortable and quiet. No issues. Would definitely stay here again. Free parking and took a $15 Lyft to the Greek Theatre.

The hotel does have a good location and I have stayed there several times before. It seems the management lost interests in maintaining the hotel to an acceptable standard. The bathmat in my room was dirty, still had black smuggles on it. When I went to the front desk to exchange it, the staff merely shrugged and gave me another regular towel. There is no hairdryer nor an ice bucket in the room. There is no liquid soap other than a few very thin bar of soaps. I had to ask for lotion. I will never stay there again. This most recent experience saddened me. I don't expect much when staying at a budget hotel. But the things I pointed above are the minimum. I felt like I didn't get the $200 I paid for.

Clean room and close to the university
