This is a beautifully decorated, well-maintained historical hotel! It is very charming and clean! You can’t beat the location! It’s surrounded by fantastic restaurants, cafes, etc and it’s steps away from UC Berkeley! It has a lovely lounge and pub restaurant and a cafe with excellent espresso drinks in front connected to hotel. Since I have chronic back pain, I have to add that THE BEDS, BEDDING AND PILLOWS WERE VERY COMFORTABLE!! My son and I came for a tour of UC Berkeley. If he gets accepted, we will definitely be staying in the hotel again when we come visit him!
