Had a 1 night stay recently with the husband and this hotel is so charming and filled with character. The owner is absolutely darling! It's in a nice location and there's a small parking lot which was a huge selling point for us. Berkeley Inn was perfect for our stay and totally affordable. Thank you for having us!

Basic hotel, clean with good service, comfortable, great location. No breakfast, lobby, microwave or mini fridge. Curtains and furniture a bit worn out.

Such nice people and amazing location. Great value for the location. Large clean rooms. Only improvement would be a mini fridge but really great
