Love this place! Quick drive to downtown to wonderful restaurants and shops. Quiet surroundings. We got take out and ate it on the patio … bed was comfy and front desk staff was so helpful.
This as a fabulous little hidden gem just 20 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge. Super comfortable, not fancy, but nestled in a residential area that was quite lovely. There are quaint shops and several restaurants just blocks away. I would stay again. A great memory -- We moved our son into Stanford the following morning and this was convenient without the hefty Palo Alto pricing. Highly recommend!
Second time here was a good as the first. Meticulously clean, simple but well appointed rooms. Norma is a welcoming host. I won’t hesitate to book again when back in the area.
Clean, spacious and well organized rooms. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was available in the morning, thoughtful and sufficient. Excellent location.
A friend recommended The Marin Lodge and it a great place to stay i . Marin County.
The room is clean and has had updates in the past few years. Staff is very helpful and the outdoor tables were a nice place to enjoy breakfast. We extended our stay and will certainly stay here again.
Clean, quite, and comfortable. Staff extremely helpful, courteous and pleasant. I very much appreciated the high quality mattress (the most important and most often overlooked item in a motel room).
