Lower priced than some other hotels in the area with accommodating, sweet staff. Even though it was right next to a main road, was very peaceful and breakfast was excellent! Very pretty property.

We booked two rooms, both with two queen beds. The property is right next to a highway, so there was quite a bit of road noise, and unfortunately, the rooms were not quite what we expected based on the photos. One room partially faced the highway, with a lovely view of the highway and parking lot. The other had a large tree right up against the window, completely blocking any view of the water. If you’re booking a room with two queen beds, I wouldn’t count on getting the beautiful water views shown in the photos. Overall, the stay felt expensive for what we got, especially since I thought part of what we were paying for was the view. That said, the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable.

The room was clean but did have an odd smell. Parking was difficult one day because of an event but the staff was helpful. The breakfast was good. This hotel is right off the interstate which is convenient but it is also loud - you can hear it at night. Overall the stay was fine, but probably wouldn’t stay there again.

We stayed on the lower level and a patio with chairs looking at the water. The room was spacious and clean. The hot water was fantastic, with plenty of pressure. The breakfast in the morning was extensive, cereal, oatmeal, fruit, veggie frittata, scramled eggs, bacon, sausage, and Belgian waffle maker! There is also a bar where you can ask for your favorite coffee, Espresso, Cappuccino, or Latte, to be made on site! Our favorite amenity were the bikes available to use! There is a bike path behind the Acqua that you can take to Sausalito(3.5 miles) and if you want more of an adventure, follow to and over the Golden Gate Bridge to Downtown San Francisco! There's a wonderful activity trail that goes along Crissey Field all the way to Embarcadero. After exploring San Francisco, catch a Ferry back to Sausalito and take in the views!
