My husband and I stayed in a standard room with a balcony for three nights to recharge. It was a safe, cozy, clean, and convenient place to stay if you want to hike in Muir Woods and the Tamalpais Mountains. The continental breakfast and service were excellent. I highly recommend this place. Thank you.
