This was a great spot for our family of four for the last two nights of our time in the Bay Area. It was excellent for the price. The location is very convenient for exploring Marin County and was only 30 min to the Oakland airport. It is in town, but the trees on the property make it feel somewhat secluded- in a good way. The front desk staff were very kind and helpful. Breakfast wasn't advertised, but the coffee, pastries, and fruit that they had out in the morning was very much appreciated.
The hotel manager is very nice, warm and super helpful. The coffee and pastries and fruit offerings in the morning are very nice. They even have umbrellas to lend you on rainy days. This is a gem, only about one mile from downtown on Fourth street! Highly recommended!
Norma made a nice welcome. The room was clean with all amenities including microwave, fridge, corner desk , lounge chair, TV, comfortable bed and chair, closet. I felt safe there. The only complaint was the room numbers could be better lit
It is a pleasure to stay in a reasonably price hotel that is so obviously cared for. A couple run/own? The place and are kind ,friendly and helpful. This is my second stay. I spend the night before heading to airport. I plan on this being my go to stay.
I stay here every year for a reunion in the area and always enjoy my stay here. Older single story motel that has been nicely renovated. Quiet residential area. Several blocks from downtown area though.
