Liked that there was specific parking for each unit. Floor needed a good scrub. No restaurant. Breakfast was average and had no protein or fruit choices. Coffee machine was nice. Front desk needs friendly service lessons. Breakfast room not ADA compliant. Upcharge for ADA room. Would i stay here again? Nope, not for the price.

Solid little spot with good sized rooms and very good beds. Breakfast is simple, cereals and toasts, bagels but great coffee machine with excellent coffees -- lattes, cappuchinos etc. Quiet and motel style parking near room. Not too far from good restaurants and 25 minutes to Sonoma or SF if just regular traffic

The room was nice and clean. The carpet could use cleaning/replace. The air conditioner worked ok but a bit loud at night. Easy parking. Even though it is close to the freeway, you could not hear it in the room.

The kitchenette was a nice feature, with a refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker with complimentary coffee provided. The bathroom was a comfortable size, and the shower had consistently warm water. The television offered a good variety of channels, and the complimentary breakfast was an added perk. There were a few areas that could use some attention. The carpet in the bedroom area could benefit from more frequent cleaning, and the electrical outlet next to the bed was loose and barely held a plug in place. I notified the front desk about the outlet issue. Some touch-up painting in the bathroom and kitchenette would also help improve the overall appearance. Having to walk to the back of the property and up a set of steps to reach the room wasn't ideal, but it was manageable. Overall, for the area, the room was fairly priced and offered good value for the cost.

The rooms have nice touches of elegance -- terrazzo steps outside, beautiful basins, and pretty moulding. I particularly appreciate the roomy fridge and microwave. Although the freeway is close, its noise is not intrusive.

I like Marinwood Inn. It is fairly quiet, even though it's near the 101 highway. The meandering quality of the buildings feels kind of homey. The staff is great, too.

Clean room and easy access to freeway and restaurants. Bed and room was comfortable, breakfast was good. Only complaint was that some one came by and started cleaning window screens and area outside my room, which woke me up. Otherwise no complaints, would stay here again.
