Our stay was average, we did have a comfortable bed. As a business traveler I felt room was not that adaptable for work purposes, work desk had no useable outlets for my electronic equipment, lighting was not so good, the room was just average. I assume for the price, was okay. I would recommend upgrade to room to make more attractive to business travelers. People would pay the higher rate if needed if the amenities were available. Overall our stay was adequate.

The lady at the desk was friendly helpful efficient & interactive. The room was fine as always, and a short walk/short drive away from everything in Novato. I have stayed here a number of times in the past & will continue to do so. Also of interest, the hotel is a very short walk from the San Marin SMART Train station, which can create myriad travel possibilities.

Price/value was fine, but I have many pictures of the horrible conditions inside the room: laminate flooring buckled and peeling and manyarge areas, spots and stains showing the place was not mopped, water flowing from handle of bathroom faucet, hot tub jets not working despite being told hot tub was working. I shared this with the front staff, twice but only got shrugs like "what can we say, we only work here "

Hotel room was nice, renovated and clean and pleasing, the staff were friendly. The building overall look was a little old, and it is located behind a train line but there were no big noises at night afterall. The hotel is located near a good neiborhood so it feels safe to walk around. Only comment: Early mornings there is a bad smell outside the hotel when you go to the parking, like a open drain.

Located in an industrial area. Convenient to where we were going and perfect for our dog. Limited dining but Door Dash was available from a nice restaurant and we had a great meal. Nice landscaping. Doing a significant upgrade to the pool which was not open but will be great when it is finished.
