The rooms have nice touches of elegance -- terrazzo steps outside, beautiful basins, and pretty moulding. I particularly appreciate the roomy fridge and microwave. Although the freeway is close, its noise is not intrusive.

I like Marinwood Inn. It is fairly quiet, even though it's near the 101 highway. The meandering quality of the buildings feels kind of homey. The staff is great, too.

Clean room and easy access to freeway and restaurants. Bed and room was comfortable, breakfast was good. Only complaint was that some one came by and started cleaning window screens and area outside my room, which woke me up. Otherwise no complaints, would stay here again.
