Love the beautiful architecture and historical aspects of the property. Well located near the Cal campus and very convenient for public transportation. Breakfast was a lovely added bonus! Only detraction regarding the area is the homeless situation which is evident throughout Berkeley & SF.

The location is great! This property is unique - very pretty inside! Great breakfast. The room is small and the bed is small. Only two people can fit in this room! But it worked for us and we had a view of the Golden Gate bridge from our room on a higher floor. Also - no tv in room.
