  • We might go back if...
    By Erik H, 01/20/09
    The location was great for our weekend get away. The front desk staff was courteous and helpful. The amenities in the room were lacking, small plastic cups, no water pitcher, tiny bathrooms, no shelves to put your dopp or make-up bag. They had a new flat screen TV, but it was in an awkward place, the "bookcase" in front of the bed would ...

  • wonderful location
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/26/08
    Staff is helpful and friendly. Hotel is old and needs upgraded. It can be loud. Rooms are small. Rooms have a musty smell. Rooms are tiny. If you want to stay close to the university and you have low expectations it will work.

  • Small and Quiet
    By OC, 12/14/07
    If you are traveling to the UC Berkeley Campus, this hotel is directly across from the University. The rooms are very small but for a quick night it will do. About 4 blocks from the Bart Station.

  • European in flair but still American enough
    By Maeve, 05/16/07
    The Bancroft is a beautiful hotel. The architecture reminds me of Europe and also some of the arts & crafts movement here. There is a lot of dark wood and old-world charm. The room that we stayed in was a reasonable size, facing Bancroft with a shared balcony. The only downside was the bathroom. It was very small, with a tiny tub - not big ...

  • Such a cozy environment
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/16/06
    This is a small hotel in a great location. The staff was friendly and eager to be of service.

    Not plush, just a nice warm feeling of home.

  • excellent service and location
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/13/06
    While it is true that the rooms are on the smaller side, it is more than made up for by the outstanding service at the front desk. Plus, its location makes it very conveient because I did not have to rent a car for my visit to Berkeley campus. Cant wait to stay there again.

    The staff were very helpful and the granola wonderful.

    Last stay was at the faculty club and found this to have above average room furnishings with excellent hotel decor.

  • This hotel is a dump!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/24/05
    The odor in room was beyond bad - a cross between Raid and Pinesol. It permeated everything including our clothes, making sleeping almost impossible even with windows open. Furniture was threadbare, dirty and musty and bathroom was dilapidated. The service was terrible. I would very strongly advise that you stay away from this property.
