I love this Holiday Inn Express! It could not be more convenient in terms of location in Berkeley- so many great places are walkable from here. The staff is the best! Super kind, helpful, and friendly. The rooms have been updated and are so clean and comfortable with the little kitchenette area. Included parking is awesome and very safe feeling. The included daily breakfast is always fresh and perfect- lots of choices and consistently refilled.

Exactly what I needed. Great location for my activities in the Berkeley/Oakland/Richmond area. Clean, quiet, updated room; clean bathroom; mini frig. New or updated hotel. Hot breakfast included with great variety. Good price. Accommodated a very early check in. Everything you expect at a Holiday Inn but hard to find elsewhere.

I came to the Holiday Inn because I had booked a room at another place sight unseen that was really low quality. Since I had stayed at Holiday Inns before I assumed that I would be able to have a much better time while I received some very stress full Medical Treatments. But I had a terrible experience the rooms were great they were clean nice everything else. The front desk staff though except for the lady at night she was great was so rude to me. Yana who works during the daytime was very unhelpful treated me like I was a bother that's all I'm going to go into it I don't even need to say anymore just not happy with the experience at all I will never go back there again the management everything except for housekeeping was great and the girl at night

The hotel checks all the boxes for a Holiday Inn Express. The key features in my mind are the larger than average rooms, strong water pressure and true blackout curtains. My only complaint about the room is that the mini fridge is loud, especially when you are trying to sleep! I wish hotels would only install mini fridges on request. The breakfast spread is pretty generic and what you'd expect from a HIE. I was surprised to see no bananas or Greek yogurt though. The staff I interacted with were very average at best. They did the motions of their jobs but there weren't any smiles or passion. I would stay again if I'm in the area but I wouldn't seek out the hotel.

Our second week-long stay here and it won't be our last. FREE parking (other places charge up to 60 bucks a night to park), FREE breakfast (eggs, yogurt, pastries, etc.), good location, large newly remodeled room with fridge, microwave, great water pressure in shower, daily housekeeping, fresh baked cookies each night, and a small fitness gym on property. Truly everything you need. Best part of the stay is the exceptional staff. From Luis the manager, to the friendly housekeeping staff and Yana at the front desk, we were treated like family each day. This place is not the fanciest choice in town, but if you want excellent hospitality and an unbeatable value, this is it.
