economy value on University Ave

Good location on University Ave - about 15 minutes walk from either Berkeley or North Berkeley BART. The room was comfortable but teeny - there was a desk and a chair, but it was funny because everything was so close together, there would be no way to pull out the chair and sit at the desk! Also the A/C was so loud and clattering - we joked about it sounding like a propeller plane trying to take off. That said, it was totally fine. It was the cheapest option in the Berkeley area so I am glad that it was as nice as it was. It could have wound being way more sketchy and it was not at all. Owners were helpful and nice.
