Confusing is the only way I can describe the process of staying at the Nash. AKA the Nasty Nash. It seemed the check in person, who very much gave me owner vibes, did not want us to stay there at all. We began by being berated at coming in the front door and apparently opening it too hard. I was then asked to find my own reservation and write down the 17 digit code on a blank sheet of paper which I proceeded to do. Then I had a fun conversation about what day it was that day and how he accused us of having the wrong day, which we did not. He found that out eventually and gave us our keys. There is no AC , at least not in our room. This wasn't the worst thing during our stay but lent itself to an open window which then lent itself to excessive street noise. Something to be aware of. This hotel is not nice and we were treated so poorly that it did not make up for the amazing location in Berkley. If I was with a partner or date and not my two buddies, we would have left immediately. Good luck on your Nash adventure if you choose to take it. God speed.

Really old construction, but very clean! I had a room with a private bathroom and shower. They offer a "dorm" style room for less, but worth it to have a private bathroom.

I decided to attend Cal Day at UC Berkeley last minute, so there weren’t many options that were reasonably priced. So for those who spoke ill, you get what you pay for. I was just happy I could get a reservation that was walking distance from campus, they accommodated me by checking in early and at checkout, they held my luggage for a few hours. In my opinion, they were life savers. I agree that the place is more of a hostel because I had a room with a shared bathroom. The water pressure was awful, the fridge in the room kept making noise all night (kept me up), and the walls were paper thin because I could hear my neighbors conversations. Would I stay here again? Most definitely due to how convenient it is. Next time, I want to reserve with enough time so I can get a room with a private bathroom.

First off, once you want a king bed and a private bathroom you are looking at $189/night. This is on par with a king bedroom in much nicer hotels within 4 blocks for whom a bathroom is standard and not a high priced option. For this, the bed and bedding are clean and comfortable. However the bathroom is a deal breaker. No window, fan or outlets. The toilet has been modified to barely use enough water to flush a piece of toilet paper. The shower handle has been modified so that the hottest water you can get in the shower is tepid. Overall, this older hotel could respond to some TLC but the current owners cannot even be bothered to replace lighting fixtures leaving your room with a bare bulb on the ceiling.

Great location at a very low price. I reached out to the hotel after my stay for assistance with the receipt, and they quickly provided help. Would stay again.

Great location, although in a shady area. Service was pretty bad, poor communication and did not have straightforward billing. Rooms were fine for a 2 star but really only good for people who want to spend as little time as possible in the hotel. Price was very good compared to other hotels in the area

THEY TRIED TO GET MORE MONEY FROM YOU. I arrived at 11pm. I rang the bell and waited for 15 minutes until I had to go to trip.com to call them from there. Otherwise, I might have had to wait for more. Its their fault and I was OK with that. However, when I checked out, the owner said that he could keep my luggage at the reception til 5pm only. Later than that they charge me 10 usd per bag. I arrived back at the hotel at 5:10 pm and waited at the door again. He said: "you are late. Give me the tips. Its supposed to be 30 usd". I would be happy to tip, but it was feeling like some kinda scam. I was late for 10 min and they asked me for money. But on the first day they were late, I didnt ask for anything. The location is good. Very convenient to get around. However, I now understand why the front door is always closed. Its because in front of the hotel, there are trash cans. I see flies a lot in front of the front door. I don't complain because probably the hotel itself cannot do anything about the trash cans being in front of their doors always. But I think because of this advantage, they should make up for customers by being more reasonable and generous.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! This place is DIRTY, cluttered, and just downright scammy. If you want to see mice, hear other rooms walking, talking, and having sex, have a dirty bathtub and shower curtain, this might be the place for you! They were going to process a refund and “accidentally” charged us for one night while processing the refund and now won’t return the “accidental” charge for being there from 9-11:30. HORRIBLE HOTEL. We were going to sleep in the rental instead until we found another hotel. This place is HORRENDOUS.

This place is the worst don't ever come here. After five minutes of reserving my room, I arrived at the hotel opened the door with my things then walked back out. Proceeded to tell the manager that I wanted a refund because they offered no a c and no internal bathroom and also their t.V barely worked with all foreign channels. He told me I had to call booking dot com, which I did. They said they needed the manager's approval for the refund which he denied. Ultimately, I was held hostage in a room I didn't want that was hot and dingy, and I got barely any sleep, because he forced me to stay in a room that I didn't want to pay for. All of this because he didn't want to give me a refund after five minutes of booking the room. The manager in this hotel absolutely sucks! Avoid at all costs!

Would not recommend. At the entrance, I was greeted by a ton of flies, and reception was on a separate floor. I didn't have internet in my bedroom for more than 3 hours. There wasn't soap, nor toilet paper in the bathroom or any toiletries, and when I left, there wasn't anyone around for checkout.
