Hotel was small but nice, and a good coffe shop across the street. It was clean, but I was disappointed that I found an apple core that had been left in the ice bucket. Service was friendly, will stay here again if we come back to the area.

Smoke alarm was removed from room, main light bulbs out, loud music from lower level room, check in thru a window, breakfast (not really). Much better places to stay in San Rafael for similar price.

The rooms were clean. The “reception” was tiny and breakfast should be just a coffee bar. This is a motel. Full of people smoking on the porches and balconies
