  It's a synchrotron guest house, not a Grand Hyatt -- you're here for business and this is convenient and a good value. Only complaints are not enough options for food (bring groceries if you have a weekend beamtime unless you rented a car!) And the rooms can get a little stuffy/hot with two people, could use more ventilation.

  It's really convenient if you're spending time at the lab, but the rooms aren't all that nice and there's no food on site, so be prepared to take the shuttle down the hill.

  Being able to stay on campus for the National Lab is extremely convenient. I wish their prices or a little bit lower and more comfortable to some of the hotels in town since this is a service for users of the instrumentation here at the National Lab. Always friendly service, rooms could be a little updated.

  This hotel has its pluses and minuses. It can be a very convenient location if your working at LBL. And for the area, it's super affordable. However, it lacks some of the amenities that a standard hotel typically has like a pool or fitness center. The rooms are pretty standard, nothing fancy but nothing terrible either. It's not the most convenient in terms of dining. The lab cafeteria is across the street (open for breakfast and lunch) but that's about it. For anything else you have to make a trip down the hill (though they do sell a limited quantity of convenience-type foods at the front desk).

  Great staff who knew the area and were extremely friendly and helpful. If you can get in this is the place to stay for visitors to the lab. Couldn't be more convenient for meetings on site. Comfortable and not expensive. The views over the bay are outstanding and can't be praised highly enough. The only downside is that you do need to drive, or Uber, if you want a decent meal in the evening.
