Definitely a good stay! Pricey but worth that yummy breakfast in the morning. I didn’t get to indulge on the cocktail hour they had which I regretted. I would definitely stay there again. The room was so clean and the beds comfy. They just got to work on their pillow game but all in all very fine hotel.

Parking here was super easy, location is not near much but was convenient since we were visiting for business at the Marin County Civic Center. Staff was friendly and very attentive. Complimentary breakfast and evening cocktails was a great touch! I would stay again if I had business in the Marin area.

I was disappointed with the breakfast and manager reception. It’s been a bit since my last ES stay and the pancakes were hard, the juice was watered down and the ‘cream cheese’ jalapeño popper omelette had a ‘cream’ sauce and tasted over cooked. The manager receptions food was poor. Still had two drinks comped so saving grace. Rooms were clean and staff were always kind and helpful They didn’t mention parking charge until I checked out telling me it was on the website. Tell me at check in please
