Safe well-lit parking lot, clean updated rooms with quality construction, good wifi, safe location and hotel for single woman traveler. Breakfast buffet had good options, there was an outdoor pool, a reading nook with books to borrow, and computers for printing out boarding pass. This was nicer than a usual Best Western in my opinion. Easy on-off to 101. Good pillows, good room temp, good bed! Very pleased. Nice sized fridge in the room as well.

Things were very good and the staff was great. A few more choices in the restaurant would be nice.

The pool is very good. My grandchildren have a very nice afternoon in the pool when they came to visit me in the hotel. The laundry also convenient.
This hotel is a great value! It's not fancy but it's clean and they are working at updating the rooms. It's close to Point Reyes National Seashore, Muir Woods and downtown San Francisco but it's far enough away that it feels safe and it's very affordable. There wasn't much for breakfast but the breakfasts aren't great even at the hotels that have a lot of offerings for breakfast. We ended up stopping to eat at the Marin French Cheese Co. and highly recommend it.

It's a small town surrounded by hills and beautiful landscapes. It's full of Ma and Pa's businesses. It's relaxing. Sit at the lounge and have a coffee, You'll feel that time just stopped. It's laid back and in contrast to a crowded San Francisco, just 30-minute drive. Proximity to vineyards and wineries.

Perfect for those who don't want to be in the city but convenient enough to visit to San Francisco. And convenient to visit the wine country of Sonoma and Napa Valley and go a little further north to see the tall redwoods forest.

This stay was rather pricey. Although clean and generally acceptable, there was only a very basic room/facilities.
On the positive side, breakfast was nice with many options. Restaurant next door, Perry's, was really fun and we went twice.

An interesting downtown area.
An interesting downtown area. Met some very nice and helpful folks. Was disappointed that the American Indian Museum was closed but no advance notice of same. That was my primary reason for visiting the town. Apparently they are remodeling. I found the Novato Historical Museum instead. Talked with several helpful, knowledgeable and friendly staffers. Two ladies recommended a good place for dinner, Grazies, which was very good.
A “happening” downtown on Saturday night. Felt safe walking from and back to my car for dinner.

Should say first off that I has intended to camp out the night I stayed here, but tent camping in Marin is a pretty sad affair as far as I can tell.
The good: Staff was helpful and friendly, and value was OK because of the very low price (under $100 including tax). The room was spacious and seemed to be in working order.
The bad: Motel is located next to working RR tracks (maybe 30 yds from the room entrances), TV is maybe 24", but did have HBO. The "balcony/patio" seemed to be about 8-10 sq ft and may not have had a door leading to it.
The ugly: the mattress may have been just springs wrapped in a heavy sheet. Also, it appeared that the front door had been forced open with a large pry bar at least once in the past.
Overall, it was an inexpensive, clean, and indoor place to sleep for a night in an area that's generally less affordable, and that's really all I needed at the time.

I really like this house . The area is very peaceful and the house is very spacious . You get to experience wild life saw different animals like turkeys . Deers and raccoon my family really love the open nature this house was great love the scenic views
Very, clean and well appointed. The price was extremely good relative to the other area hotels and the check in staff were friendly. This is the second time I've stayed there, separated by about two years, and both were great experiences.
View from room overlooking open space, hills, forest was pleasant and calming. Very little car traffic on road next to hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. Easy access to highway and downtown Novato (even by foot).
The front desk service was superb as I had a lot of packages delivered. They were extremely helpful. The hotel was close to my destination and easy access from the highway. The room was clean and adequate.
The hotel was clean and the breakfast is amazing. Very spaced rooms and good internet. Safe parking and have a very good restaurante/bar next door on same parking lot. Very good!
Surrounded by nature, apple trees, clean, a lot of comfort. Great place to relax. Small town Novato, located 30min N from Golden Gate Bridge, is full of Ma and Pa's businesses.
This was the cheapest place I could find in the North Bay with a decent review score. It was basic, but the third-floor room was clean enough and quiet.
I loved this hotel. My room was spacious, and the staff were wonderful! I was able to jog to a hiking trail, and even had a bit of a view from my room.
