Great stay! Was concerned that proximity to 101 would be loud, but my room was well off the frontage, quite quiet and very well appointed. The shower was particularly nice. The free breakfast was better than most, and overall, if I needed to stay in North Marin ever again, I'd come back to Marinwood Suites.

I liked that,fpr my needs, this was a great location. I liked easy acess to the freeway going both north and south. I liked the Peets coffee machine with the breakfast, offering such delicious choices. Liked having the parking so close to my room. I didn't like hearing the freeway noises all through the night.

Trip started out great. Woke up to take shower and had no hot water. Ran it for 10 mins and still nothing. Had hot water the night before. When checking out, I told the front desk that I didn’t have hot water and was told that “no one else complained so don’t know why”. Really? Might as well call me a liar. Would not return.

The biggest issue I see with a lot of privately owned motels is, they are not maintained well. From the gap under the door to the lumpy pillows this Motel was a good example of that. The mattress was decent, however, the pillows were the lumpiest and most uncomfortable pillows I had ever had in a hotel. This is a motel with Apartments behind it in the same complex. Some of the nicer outdoor pictures you see online appear to be more of the apartment complex. One area has a bunch of supplies sitting out in front of what seemed to be the location of one of the nicer online pictures. The individual who checked me in was friendly and efficient. Getting to the room and the parking was easy enough. It was an okay Motel but needs some basic maintenance work.

Decent for price

Decent for a 1 night stay. Would not recommend more than that. Room needs painting and drywall repair. Bed seemed clean mattress not the most comfortable and fitted sheet didn’t fit properly.
