This was absolutely the most disgusting place I've ever had the misfortune of stepping into. The smell was atrocious, the carpets filthy and the room...oh dear lord, where to begin...dirty stained-sheets...we didn't even think of sitting near or on the beds, I feared scabies or crabs or god knows what else. The bathroom was filthy with hair in the shower....dirty... more

This place is not a hotel but a place which is full of weirdos and homelesses. The reception is opened/available ONLY at the day's hours till 5:30 PM, then, things become scaring! The rooms and bathrooms are old and smell like, the furnitures are forth hand to say the least...and the beds are full of scavias (prepare to scratch yourself... more

For a mini-city, Berkeley is not blessed with many wow-factor hotels, particularly downtown. So while the expectations were only moderate for a stay at the Nash, which was ranked in the top 10, the experience was appalling. Being within walking distance of the BART station is a plus, but to say location itself is a plus would not be accurate.... more

Stayed the month of February '06 at the Nash while doing an intensive study in Berkeley. It was better than a couple of Days Inns that I've stayed in. The room was clean, warm, and dry. Saw a few ants which were taken care of, and saw one roach all month. Saw no beer cans, no bums, and no condoms... more

So within 5 minutes of being there we discovery a cocroach. The rooms all smell of cig. smoke, and the curtains were stained and wouldn't close. You hear things at all hours of the night and it was quite dirty. Bring your own sheets and towels if you dare to stay here. more

I just love this place ---- it is so close to everything I need. I can walk to UCB, BART, bus, movie, bar, stores, and .......! more

I stayed for graduation for my friend at UCB. The staff at the hotel were very pleasant and energetic to all guests. Rooms are clean. Location is great, close to the campus, resturant, shops and so on... Great place for affordable rate. more

Where to start? Dirty floors, bugs, clerk asleep at the front desk, no free parking, paper-thin doors and walls, beer cans and god knows what else under our bed, sharp metal objects sticking out of the carpet, and overpriced rooms. Avoid this place like the plague! more

I cannot believe the positive reviews I am reading on this site, reviews that make the Nash Hotel sound like a quaint, charming oasis in the heart of Berkeley. THIS HOTEL IS A FLEABAG. A DIVE. A RAT HOLE. The room are filthy (my bathtub hadn't been cleaned in months, and a layer of black dirt covered the windowsill), the... more
