Upon arrival I found this hotel to be very unusual. The entire main floor housed a Indian curry restaurant that eminated a terrible smell that perminated throughout the hotel. When we went to check in the desk clerk acted very put out and reluctant to answer any questions about parking or any accomodations. The parking lot was small on the side ...

Terrible

Dirty, located over an indian restaurant hence the rooms stink, no AC, no hotel lobby, don't count on them for a wake up service, concierge service does not exist (nobody at the reception after certain hours and a until 9 in the morn.) and top of this expensive, located in the student ghetto. One word can summarize all this: TERRIBLE!

stay at hotel durant instead!

This is by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed at in Berkeley. There is an indian restaurant in it which makes the entire hotel smell terrible. The website states that you get a "continental breakfast" with your stay. Yeah, well, you get a few donuts and a container of raisin bran. I strongly advise you not to stay here! I enjoyed Hotel Durant much, much better.

Completely unreliable

Don't expect your reservation to mean anything. We made a block booking for a wedding party, sent out all the information to our guests, but when people came to confirm bookings they were told the hotel was completely booked for the whole month of July. Expecting a simple mistake we called the Hotel, but were told that they had been offered a large amount of money up front so had simply canceled our booking.

High Priced, low service
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/02/06
On a 5 Day stay in Berkely recently, I stayed in the Beau Sky Hotel, while I found the staff to be very friendly, and the hotel to be quaint, I was suprised by the high price of the rooms, with the low end of the hotel. The room was cold, they provided a space heater which struggled to keep the room warm. The room was very noisy (street noise, ...
