Heart of the City, with Comfort of Your Home

We stayed as a family with our 3 children for 24 nights and 25 days. Apart from the rude behavior and unbecoming attitude of the valet staff at the Residence Inn Berkeley, one of the most beautiful spots in the city, everything was wonderful. We loved the cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms, the friendly staff, and the entire team, including Brenna Miller, Gabriela, Teresa, Rachana, Maili, Maria, An Max?, Iris, Gregory, and a gentleman with a mustache and white hair whose name we couldn't get, who did the cleaning. They made us feel like family. While the breakfast wasn't as rich and varied as a Turkish breakfast, we were satisfied and pleased. We would have liked more halal options. The lack of free parking and the extremely slow Wi-Fi were disappointing. Having to eat on the 12th floor and enjoy the view for just 25 days was a bit heartbreaking for us.
