Overview

Along University Avenue in Berkeley, California, Sather Berkeley, SureStay Collection by Best Western places travelers a short stroll from the storied campus and bell tower of the University of California. Public transit makes the city effortless. The Amtrak station, BART, and local bus lines all sit close enough to walk, opening up Oakland, San Francisco, and the wider Bay Area without a car and an easy gateway to three airports as well. The tree-lined streets nearby reward an unhurried wander past bookshops, cafes, and the kind of restaurants a university town does best. Families visiting students find the location especially convenient, with campus landmarks and Telegraph Avenue's energy minutes away, and the marina and bay-front paths a short drive west. Bright, comfortable rooms offer a calm retreat at the end of a full day of exploring. Between the bay and the hills, Berkeley keeps culture and curiosity close at hand.

Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests consistently praised the hotel's convenient location near UC Berkeley, restaurants, and shops, with easy access to events and public transport. Some guests found the staff friendly and helpful, and appreciated the comfortable beds and easy parking. However, many reviews mentioned cleanliness issues, such as dirty rooms, stained linens, and unpleasant odors. Noise was a common complaint, both from inside and outside the property, making sleep difficult for some. The breakfast was considered minimal and lacking variety, and some guests experienced problems with service and security deposits. Overall, while the location is a highlight, improvements are needed in cleanliness, noise control, and amenities.
