Let your stay in Berkeley be enriched by convivial surroundings. Berkeley Hostel at Piedmont House has mostly private rooms, and very little dorm space...no planned group activities... and is a youth hostel essentially due to its shared facilities, such as 'bathroom down the hall', and a community kitchen so our guests can survive affordably in Berkeley. We are three blocks from The Boalt Hall corner of campus and from International House and a short walk to bookstores, cafes and famous...

"This isn't a hostel since they don't offer shared dormitory rooms, but it's a reasonably cheap place to stay that may be of interest to young backpackers. It's located a few blocks from the center of downtown Berkeley and the campus, and it's about two blocks from a BART stop (a metro train that will get you to downtown San Francisco in about 30 minutes for a few bucks). It has a basic kitchen, a TV/reading room, and some other small common areas. It isn't exceptionally modern or clean,...

Walk Euclid Avenue to the Berkeley Rose Garden. This area is known as Northside.

The heart of Berkeley, in many respects, is indeed the UC campus. Take your time -- above all, savor the company of the trees. Slowly walk through and around each grove, make your way through some of the buildings -- particularly Wheeler Hall, with its massive stories of lessons past -- and muse as to where the students have gone with what they learned, debated, embraced, and refused.

Of course most visitors to Berkeley go to Telegraph to shop, but there are plenty of other areas that offer a completely different type of shopping experience, if the begging teenager/dirty hippie scene isn't your thing. Try College Ave (go several blocks past the dorms) and Fourth Street. Fourth Street is a bit trendier, but both are pleasant, though too yuppie-ish for some.
