Berkeley

This hotel was horrendous from the moment we checked in. Our room was by far the worst. Everything just looked and smelled dirty. As soon as you walked into the room, it smelled overwhelmingly of stale cigarette smoke. The space provided was so small it was hard to inch around the bed, let alone get anything out of our suitcase. There were several brown and yellow mystery stains on the bed. The floors were very obviously dirty and needed a good vacuum. There was paint chipping off of several parts of the room. The shower head was broken and would not stay, we had to hold it by hand which made it a pain to shower. There was mold growing in several spots in the bathroom which is a health hazard. The one elevator in the building is so tiny we barely fit our two bodies and suitcase inside. The hallway lights do not stay on, they only come on if you turn on the switch, which is also a tripping hazard. The breakfast provided consisted of only cereal and yogurt. There was not a working internet connection. The air conditioning never worked. It was cooler to open the windows. There were also stains all over the walls. Lastly, after walking four miles to and from the Eiffel Tower, late at night, our main door to the hotel was locked. We tried using our room key to get in with no luck. The inside was dark and doors locked, when I started to panic and pry open the doors, only then did the front door man appear from the dark to let us in.

We came on our honeymoon and were severely disappointed. We stayed for 3 nights and paid over $500 for the worst vacation of our life. Do not come here.

Location is the only redeeming factor. Staff initially couldn’t locate the booking for our room despite having the paperwork in hand. When we did get a room, it was Very small room and we have no control over thermostat. it was set to heat when the weather was near 80 degrees outside and we were told they would try to have the technician to change the heat out soon but no actual time when we would have AC. Bed was old and not well maintained. It sagged in the middle. Cleaning Took forever to have the room cleaned even though we arrived at the agreed booking time. Overall terrible experience.

Morning staff was really pathetic better be carefull while checking in. They gave me wrong room seems with the price money. I wanted to stay for 13 days but i checked out in 3 days because of size and when i checked out they showed me bigger room with same price which was 110euro/day. I could have stayed there if they could have changed it for me first day itself. Seems they themself impacting there business.
But hotel is in good location and breakfast is also quite good. So its just you have to be carefull while choosing the room and checking in.
