Super cute and comfortable and very lovely staff. A few places in the room that weren't spic and span, but they were minor. The location is convenient, the cafe is great and seems to be a real neighborhood hub, which we loved. Thanks for the stay!

Very cute little hotel in berkely, a bit far from the Greek, but its a good walk. Parking is well lit, but shared with a supermarket. Perfect for that short weekend getaway.

Great stay!
Great stay at this hotel, it had everything I needed and appreciated the coffee in the morning. The bed was a bit firm, but it was okay. Would stay here again.

I would have given Sens across the board an excellent rating but the screen door opening to the small outdoor eating area had several holes. This allowed a few insects to fly into our room. I consider it a minor annoyance and would return.

Sens Hotel and Bistro was a charming and comfortable place to stay for several days while I attended to personal business. The room itself was attractive and well-appointed. There were many toiletries available for the forgetful. The bed was very comfortable and there were lights and plugs everywhere I needed them to be. The staff was friendly and helpful. I will definitely return!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Older vibe in the hallway and some fit and finish issues in the room (unglued bits of the closet door), and no lobby it’s a coffee shop were the three somewhat off putting elements. But the room itself was very clean and they provided extra amenities in the room that were unexpectedly nice, like an electric teapot with tea and hot chocolate, a robe and slippers, and a toiletries kit in the bathroom. The staff was also exceptionally nice and totally available to both let me in to the (coffee shop / hotel) front door after hours and to check me out very early in the morning. It was also a convenient location within 10-15 minutes easy walking distance of the Downtown Berkeley BART station. Overall a good experience.
