Nice clean motel type establishment... Parking was good, staff were friendly and quick... bed was nice and room was clean
ken, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

No nonsense place with central location. Good for sleeping - not much else.
Theis, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Cute Inn. Convenient location. Room was clean except shower tiles need a good scrubbing. Also, there was no cover, flat sheet or duvet on the bed comforters which seems unusual.
anne, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Friendly staff. The room had a weird smell that wouldn't go away even with the door open. Only 1 outlet working.
Henning, 1-night trip

Clean, quiet, and close to Berkeley campus. Definitely booking again.
Cinthya, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was clean, comfortable and convenient. AC unit was terribly loud and the room wasn’t ready until an hour after check-in.

Very clean. Convenient location. Friendly and helpful staff.
Liz, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The front desk staff was very accomodating. The bed was terrific and the linens were lovely. Things are very expensive in that area and their price was better than most. I would definitely stay there again.

6/10 Good

Hi. The front desk was very friendly. We stayed on two different nights within a week. First night there was a lot of hair in our bathroom/floor and shower. I told the front desk attendant. They said they asked housekeeping to come clean. I ended up cleaning it. Second stay there was hair on the toilet.

Very convenient place when visiting Berkeley. Close to campus and other points of interest. Place has been renovated and it’s so much better than before.

Enjoyed my stay.
Kelly, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was great and the management was super. Everything was just wonderful and i had the feeling that if I needed anything, they would provide it but i had everything I needed. Signature Inn is a great place to stay.
Richard, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Overall, good inn, provided coffee and tea all day long. The main issues are the rooms are tiny for 2 beds, it’s difficult to walk past each other and the AC. In the room we had the AC was doing a weird noise like something is hanging off it when it was cooling. This noise was at such a frequency that it was waking us up all night long. Very unfortunate.
Irina, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

good Berkeley option

Hotel is clean, well maintained, and reasonably close to the Berkeley campus (about a 30 minute walk). Trader Joe's is nearby and there's a good breakfast place across the street (Nations). Rooms are small and don't have space for much beyond the two beds (minimal sitting room for example). Few amenities other than parking and the basic room (no ice machine for example). But if all you want is a place to crash at the end of a day, this is a good option.
James, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The only problem I had was that the room I was given was right next to the laundry room where they clean all the linens, so during the day it was noisy.
Alan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Racism

I enjoyed my stay, but was disappointed by the front desk staff keeping the door locked while I(black man) waited outside, despite there being space inside as another (white)couple completed their transaction.
