Happy Hour was a nice addition to our stay and the pool was warm and clean. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet and had a nice dinner in our room one evening. Great location for driving into San Francisco for the day.

The room was a good size and having a freezer and full fridge was very helpful, especially given that there was no ice machine. The staff was very friendly and accommodating!

The room was spacious and had great air conditioning.
The room was spacious and had great air conditioning. They had blackout drapes and a nice tub. I loved the shampoo and conditioner that was already in refillable dispensers in the tub/shower area. They also had every channel I could ask for with the TV and I was able to access my netflix as well. I will stay there again. Great value.MelindaUnited States - 8.0Scored 8.0

San Rafael was a great location for our mission of tracing ancestors in Marin County. It was also easy to get to the San Francisco bay area and beyond. Plenty of shops within a short drive. We even took a trip out to Napa while there.

There are lots of restaurants on the main street. There are things to be seen in the surrounding area, but I have seen them before. This trip was to see people. I ate at IHOP, great friendly spot open until 10 pm. Also Phyliss's Giant Burgers - and that's no lie. I also had a very good crepe at the Crepevine Restaurant, which had a large selection of crepes, omelettes, sandwhiches and more.

It's a good base from which to visit Marin and other neighboring towns, some that are much more expensive. 4th Street has some good eating, Lundy's and Theresa + Johnny's for breakfast if you need more than Villa Inn's breakfast. Also loved being a short drive (could probably have walked to both restaurants) and to Copperfield's Bookstore. Also if you can't handle the big city, this is a less intense and cheaper option than staying in San Francisco.

- From US$338.73 per night9.8Scored 9.8ExceptionalRated exceptional· 16 reviewsThe retreat is very easy to reach from Hwy 101 and convenient to San Rafael and environs. You need a car to get around. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was fine. The decor is clearly very well planned for the hosts. It was a little over the top for us but comfortable. Having access to a washer and dryer was great. As it was cold and rainy we couldn't take advantage of any nearby walking trails or outside spaces.DorisUnited States
- From US$145.60 per night7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 458 reviewsBreakfast was very basic but it was OK to start the day. The reception lady was delightful and welcoming. She was helpful when it came to room selection. Value ... hard for me to rate precisely for in the preceding weeks we had stayed at cheaper and better but in lower cost locations. We also stayed at more expensive and not so good so you make up your mind with regard to a multitude of choice factors. We will stay again.MalcolmNew Zealand

The beds were comfortable and the room was very quiet even though it was very close to the freeway. Continental breakfast was very usual but was adequate. We will certainly consider this hotel if we come to San Rafael.RabiUnited States
