I've been at Varsity Berkeley for over a year now, and it's been fantastic. The building events hosted by the staff are entertaining and a great opportunity to connect with neighbors. The apartment's modern touches like granite countertops and in-unit laundry just sweeten the deal.

Varsity Berkeley offers an excellent balance of quality and value. The building's amenities are top-notch and really add to the living experience here. Although the price for trash service seems a bit steep, overall, the cost is justified by the amenities and building quality.
