Liked: Cleanliness
Property was clean and in good repair for a very basic room. Nothing fancy but a great value and extremely close to Sausalito, Mill Vally, Larkspur and the Marin Headlands. I just need a room to sleep in and it fit the need well.

Don't let the outside fool you (as it did me). The rooms are nicely updated, clean and the bed is super comfy. It's on a busy road, but it was relatively quiet at night. There's a few good restaurants really close too.

Though the room was very close to a busy highway it must have been very well insulated because it was quiet inside the room. Appeared to have been recently renovated and freshly painted. We were comfortable and slept well.

The room is clean, no smell, wifi is fast, but the building is right next to the street, vehicles pass by constantly day and night, couldn’t sleep well at night, that’s the only downside otherwise is a good place.
