Stayed for 3 nights and it was exactly as described on Tripadvisor. Location is great - just a block or so off Shattuck. and, for those so inclined, close to the subway that you can take from either Oakland or SFO airport. Room is big and a bit spartan, but excelled in the two things that matter the most to... more

I found the Downtown Berkeley Inn to be very clean, comfortable and conveniently located walking distance to shops, restaurants, BART, university. The decor had a nice, simple and modern feel. The rates are very reasonable and the owner was a lovely person and extremely helpful when I had questions. I loved it and I would absolutely stay here again!!!! more

I stayed in the Downtown Berkeley Inn for four days while I was visiting UC Berkeley, and I was very impressed. The rooms are clean, decorated with new furniture, and the location is very close to everything in Berkeley. Every room has a large flat screen TV, and there is free parking. The hotel is run by a family that... more

I am so glad that I stumbled upon this hotel website while looking for a reasonably-priced hotel where I could stay while on a 6 day business/pleasure trip combination to the Bay Area. First of all, the price was a very reasonable (my total bill, after taxes and fees, was $724 for six nights.) The location was great, just a... more

This hotel is more like a motel, but.. a very good one. Great location, just a few short blocks away from the BART station. For the price, this is one of the best deals you can find in Berkeley California. Sudha, the owner of the place was very helpful and friendly I would certainly stay here again if I do... more

We recently stayed at the Downtown Berkeley Inn and had the best night's sleep - the beds are heavenly, and there is a choice of soft, firm and medium pillows. The Inn is in a great location, we walked everywhere, even to Campus, and found Sudha, the owner, charming and helpful. This Inn is very clean and comfortable. We will... more

I had the pleasure of staying at the Downtown Berkeley Inn during a visit to Berkeley in February. The rooms were lovely and spotless, the location is very convenient and Sudha is very attentive host, who makes you feel like family. I am delighted to have made her acquaintance and look forward to coming back to this well run and... more

This motel is a very good choice when visiting the campus. It is clean and newly refurbished, and located a short walk from the BART and the campus (about two or three blocks to either). A car was not necessary if you are using BART. The owners were very nice and helpful, and seemed eager to make the stay pleasant.... more
