"Outstanding service during Garden State Film Festival"
Overall score5.0/ 5
I was attending the Garden State Film Festival and actually arrived a day early and the gentleman at the front door offered to see if they had any rooms for Friday night.

Of all the places at which I've stayed, the staff at the Berekely consistantly has set itself apart from all those other places, in that every member of that staff makes an effort to understand the needs of someone like me, which are quite different from the traditional business traveler (a much later check I.
