The location. The beds are very comfortable.
We booked a top floor big king room, and when we arrived, the hotel staff apologized and said that the previous guest did not check out in time for them to clean the room (he left at 10pm), we didn't check in until after 11pm.... then they gave us a very small queen room near the elevator, for $12.00 less than what the king room cost. They gave us a $25.00 credit towards the morning breakfast, but then there was an additional charge of $28.00 for a "destination" fee. We booked this room for my husband's birthday, which was a complete disappointment. This hotel ruined our stay. Also, the throw blanket on the foot of the bed had a red stain on it. Which is gross... and both elevators have a weird raffia/grass mat on the walls and smell bad. If you want a comfortable bed, but everything else is bad, then pay the high expense to stay here. Otherwise, you should rethink your stay.
The walking distance to UC Berkeley was nice.
The rooms are quite small and the walls are very thin, you can hear the conversations in the surrounding rooms. It was a bussy time and I was kept up late simply becuase the people on the room next to mine were talking, this should be of no fault to them but a very negative reflection of the building / accomodation. Its a very old building clearly, charming but not great for getting rest.
Good location near Berkeley campus.
The onsite cafe, Poindexter, is sub-par and its breakfast was practically inedible.
Very good staff. Old facility but updated.
HOtel charges Resort Fee, but makes it difficult to spend the resort fee. Restaurant was closed completely on a Firday Evening. Restaurant refused to provide individual check and simultaneously refused to recognize resort fee. Second floor of hotel smelled quite bad i strong musty odor
One of the few hotels conveniently located near the Cal campus and Telegraph Ave; appreciated the restaurant credit.
Rooms are small, outdated, and overpriced.
It’s been upgraded since I was last there (it wasn’t a Hilton property then) . It is nice, well furnished.
The shower was not good. Water temperature varied widely while I showered each day.
Absolutely the best location for visiting the Berkeley campus
One Elevator didn’t work
