• Sleep under the redwood trees! There are 5 on the property.
• Suitable for a couple, 2 colleagues, or a small family.
• Lots of “Berkeley character” in a 1920’s Tudor building

The Neighborhood:

• Virginia Street is quiet and peaceful - at the foot of “Holy Hill" with several seminary schools.
• It's a 6 minute walk to the UC campus - although longer if you prefer a leisurely-paced stroll along tree-lined streets or stop to pick up an espresso on the way!
• The adjacent properties are occupied mainly by university-associated visitors.
• You are just one block from Euclid Avenue with a selection of stores, cafes, deli & sandwich shops, a small grocery store, and coffee houses.
• 10 minutes’ walk from Berkeley’s so-called “gourmet ghetto” with many fine and eclectic dining experiences including Alice Waters’ world-famous Chez Panisse and the Cheeseboard Pizza Collective.
• 11-12 minutes’ walk to the Berkeley Rose Garden (where you can see spectacular sunsets over the SF Bay) and Codornices Park on Euclid Avenue.
• You can walk to downtown Berkeley and the BART station (Bay Area Rapid Transit system) in about 20 minutes. There is bus service a few blocks away.
• Twenty minutes driving will take you to San Francisco across the Bay Bridge (outside of rush hours!), or it’s 20 minutes via BART. Driving to Marin County, Napa Valley and Lake Tahoe are also easy options.

Price:
• The rate is all-inclusive. We pay the Berkeley business license tax, but it is not charged to you.

The fine print:

• One off-street parking space is available for you at the rear of the building.
• No smoking anywhere in the building or the grounds! A Berkeley City ordinance prohibits it in multi-family buildings and common areas.
• This is a quiet residential building in a serene neighborhood (beneath redwood trees) Please, no parties or loud noise!
• Sorry, no pets.
