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.

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.
