Dave, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Check in was easy. Restaurant was good. Shower was great and all amenities such as fridge, microwave, dryer , tv were fine. Bed was extremely hard with two hard pillows and lightweight bedding. Service was very good.

Overall, a great value spot to stay at
Clean and friendly place. Okay Continental breakfast. This is my second visit here. I stayed for a couple of weeks, this time around. Overall, a great value spot to stay at. My only complaint is that there were many nights after 9~10pm with lots of noise coming from the parking lot and some nights with children stomping around in the hallways. Not like my experience previously.

Clean, basic comfort.
I found the space adequate- simple and basic and clean. Bed was very comfortable. Nice shower and tile work in bathroom. Fridge and microwave were really nice to have. Fairly quiet for a weekend. Excellent convenient location to downtown San Rafael.

10/10 Exceptional

A bit worn, but good for the price.
The hotel is showing it's age, but it has a lot of good amenities. It has a nice vanity nook. The refrigerator works almost too well. The room was spacious and the bed was good but the pillows and linen wasn't great.
