I was iffy at first because all of the reviews online, but the staff was nice, the property is a nice little hidden grove. The room was nice too! It’s a little older but it’s been renovated, and for the price it was well worth it. I had no issues and I’d stay there again

Just ok. The room was clean and looked semi updated. Nice big screen tv. But unable to enjoy the outdoors. Lights were turned off and they would not turn on the fire pit. Based on pics I wanted to enjoy the outdoors. No gym either. Oh and they should invest in dual pane windows as it was so loud because freeway practically right outside. At least in the room I stay in 138.

This is a sleeping gem. Don’t pass over this property wherever you’re visiting the city, Marin, Napa/Sonoma, the location is central with quick access to both SF & wine country easily by uber or car. Management & Staff go above and beyond to be accommodating, the rooms are very well maintained and are a great respite after a long day. TV’s that allow access to your own content is huge for me - their smart TVs have all the apps and you can hook an HDMI easily. USB ports in the outlets all a win. Housekeeping is very sweet and always attentive. Our dog was welcomed which means a lot to us. Couldn’t do much better, I have since stayed here many times!

First, I want to say that this is not an inn its a motel. So don't be fooled, you will be right off the freeway, hearing traffic all night. Second, my room looked pretty good until I discovered there was no water pressure, and the floors were so dirty they made my white socks black. Now If you are just traveling and passing through, this is a decent place to stay the night, but not meant for a long stay.

The room is amazing! Comfortable bed, great restroom, big TV with many options/channels/streaming. Staff is kind. The internet is patchy and service but luckily that’s not what a vacation is for. A little hidden gem. Beautiful ambience all around in a place you’d not expect.
