Comfortable bed, super nice bathroom, great to have a closet to hang clothes. We only stayed one night, and had to get up early the next morning, so we didn't get to enjoy the little balcony, but that was a nice touch.

It didn't make much sense that the room had darkening curtains covering the window/sliding door to the balcony, so no light came through there, when the frosted glass in the door to the bathroom and the window in the bathroom could not be covered. The bright lights from the parking lot right outside lit up the whole room during the night. Please put some rolling shades on both those windows, so guests can sleep in a dark room if they want to.

Loved the thoughtfulness that went into making it a pleasant place to stay: robes and slippers, multiple places to lay suitcases out, hangers that don't require special effort to get them off the rack, adequate drawer and shelf space, a room safe, many amenities (fridge, electric kettle, microwave, coffee & tea, ceramic and glass mugs, outlets, end tables and reading lights on both sides of the bed, tourist info, desk and chair, additional easy chair, balcony with table and chairs, bathroom essentials like soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, lotion, shampoo, and conditioner, adequate places to hang towels, decent towels and enough of them - you get the picture), lots of light, a great grocery store next door, a decent bed and pillows, and proximity to everything. Plus you can get breakfast/lunch at the Cafe with several vouchers for free coffee.

The walls are paper thin. If there are people in adjoining rooms, you can hear them and entire conversations clearly. There is a bit of a musty smell in the hallway, and occasionally in the room, but neither are overpowering.

There was free coffee. There was not free breakfast. The location is central to wonderful restaurants and backs up to a nice neighborhood with overnight fee parking. Shares a side of building with a grocery store, but was quiet overnight. Breakfast pastries looked good. I love Cheeseboard Collective next door. I will stay again. Nice microwave and mini fridge. Shower was modern and large. Spacious room that was well decorated. They’re doing the most with what they’ve got. Not a new Hyatt in Emeryville, so if that’s your heart’s desire, enjoy that. This hotel is perfect for my preferences.

The hotel was vacant, so a single female would be slightly safer on a higher floor. I was given 102.

Well located, rooms are very well-equipped. Beds are very comfortable. Shower is nice and has all amenities There is coffee or tea in the room. There is no view from the window but there is a nice patio areal The TV works well and there is also a desk area. Nice coffee shop connected to the hotel

It would be nice to have a view but it's Berkeley, after all, and it is a city so there are no real viewsl. The rooms could be bigger but they aren't and everything you need is in the room anywayl

Very nice and comfortable room about 10 minutes walk from Downtown Berkeley BART station. Staff were all very friendly, a nice vibe in the café in the morning as well as free coffee tokens. Microwave and fridge worked well so we were able to get food from the wonderful supermarket next door. Shower and bathroom were clean and comfortable and everything we could possibly think of was provided.

It would have been nice if the café had more vegan options

Perfect location right on Shattuck ! Many great places to eat and visit by walking just a few steps. Gourmet Market next door, Safeway and CVS right up the street .We ate at Saul’s Deli twice ( and took pastries home ) and had an amazing dinner at LoCocos authentic Sicilian. The room was very well appointed and had a cute little private terrace. Top notch toiletries and bathrobes , bedding, iron, hairdryer… well thought out. Coffee shop served top notch cappuccino ( Sono Italiano) in cozy Bohemian atmosphere with History of modern art / impressionist theme. Worth the little extra cost to have the boutique experience; don’t hesitate or even think about staying down near the marina area just saying this is the better neighborhood.

No complaints totally met or exceeded our expectations; good job management and staff!

The location was perfect for our brief stay. We walked to the CheeseBoard for pizza (2 min. walk) and ate it on our little patio. We had breakfast at EGGY (1 min. walk) which was amazing. We walked to the Greek Theater (25 min). We bought wine at Andronicos. It's exactly what we were looking for.

The bed was not at all comfortable.The furnishings presented as dingy/dirty to me. Every time I opened the closet door it banged on the door hinge.

Another great stay at Sens Berkeley! Can't beat this great location and friendly café downstairs (also goodies and coffee at nearby Cheese Board and original Peets Coffee). Walk to UC Berkeley campus easily. Rooms come with small refrigerator, microwave, and some eating utensils and plates -- you can eat al fresco in the the rooms with balconies. The market next door has a great take-out selection.

The only things that would improve this hotel are impossible given its location and size, and that would be to have a grand view of something pleasant and to have a pool/spa/gym. You'll have too many other things to do around here to miss those things!

Great location! Free cup of coffee each morning in the bistro on first floor. In the same block as Cheeseboard with amazing daily pizza and bakery - not to be missed! Delightful little balcony and microwave and refrig, even with plates and silverware. Very good bathroom and room was comfortable with plenty of space to put suitcases, hang up clothes and spread out for those of us who have been living out of a suitcase for a couple of weeks. This was our second stay here and I am sure there will be more. FYI parking was $8 in the parking lot right next door,

The room was comfortable and clean as well as well appointed with a mini fridge, microwave, real dishes & silverware, good storage for clothing, umbrella, hairdryer and the essential toiletries (even a packaged tooth brush &. Toothpaste.). It was right next to Andronico‘s Market a d really close to the Greek Theater.

No parking and the pillows could be better.
