• Rooms are available on an "as available" basis only.
  

• 
  
We do not take reservations. That may seem unreasonable, but this is not a hotel. We do not accept "deposits to hold rooms," which is just another kind of reservation.  The thing to do is to check in with us by email to find out "projected" availability. You can do this 2 or 3 weeks in advance and we can go from there. However, if you are already here and seeking a cozyroom, then call.

• We want YOU to personally view the room before you make a decision. Most people come here when arriving in the East Bay (Berkeley/Oakland), view the room and then make a decision. Some people are willing to take the room sight unseen but this is not workable because we need to interview you—in person.  Remember this is not a hotel.

• We understand that having a friend or a secretary look for you can be helpful.<> We are not willing to rent a room to a 3rd party on your behalf. Every person staying here must be interviewed—in person—prior to renting. Only the person actually residing in the room can sign the contract—no 3rd party.
