Ok Place, Reasonable Price for what it was
Pros:

The room was convenient to Mill Valley and southbound Hwy 101. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was compact with good counter space.

Cons:

The refrigerator was plugged in but not cold and no visible way to turn it down. The table space was too high to comfortably use a computer. The room was much smaller than the king room I had 3 years ago and there was no provision for a luggage rack, though where it would have been placed was a good question.

Fine for a night
Pros:

Room was clean and the big bed was comfortable. There was an iron and ironing board and hair dryer in the room, which was helpful.

Cons:

There were various things in the room that were strange or did not work. The conditioner pump in the shower did not work. There were no curtains, only shutters, but many people had to walk by the window to get to their rooms and could see into the room if the shutters were not shut. The bathroom was very small and strangely had a hook attached almost to the side of the door for hanging towels. I was also given a room facing the highway, so it was fairly loud in the evening and the following morning.

Erinomaisen hinta-laatu-suhteen majoitus San Franciscon pohjoispuolella.
Pros:

Sijainti Golden Gaten pohjoispuolella on kerrassaan täydellinen - kun ajat kaupungista majoitukseen, siltatullia ei tarvitse maksaa. Lähistöllä on lyhyen matkan päässä riittävästi palveluita, jotta voit olla muutaman yön täällä. Tulimme kiertelemään San Franciscon ympäristöä ennen asettumistamme kaupunkiin ja tämä oli todella meille hintansa puolesta todella hyvä diili! Huoneesta löytyvät kaikki tarvittavat mukavuudet ja se oli erittäin siisti. Pysäköintitilaa on pihalla riittävästi, vaikka autoa ei juuri silloin sattuisi saamaan juuri oman oven eteen. Voin ehdottomasti suositella..!

Cons:

Kylpyhuoneen hana oli todella jäykkä. Varmaankin vain yksittäistä huonetta koskeva ongelma, mutta pelkäsin jo rikkovani hanan, kunnes se yhtäkkiä aukesi ja vesi alkoi virtaamaan. Vikaa oli varmaan kuitenkin enemmän käyttäjässä, kuin laitteessa, koska eurooppalaisena en ole aiemmin törmännyt vastaavanlaiseen hanasysteemiin.

Horrifying experience.
Pros:

Location.

Cons:

The worst place I’ve ever stayed in my life, and it wasn’t cheap. The room was filthy, very old and in bad condition. From 10 PM to 2 AM we didn’t sleep at all because the TV in the next room was on full blast. I called reception about it; they said they would handle it but did nothing. They offered me another room, and when I asked if they could check if it would be quieter, they told me to check it myself. When I said that if they couldn’t guarantee quiet I would ask for a refund, the man started shouting at me. He seemed unstable. They should reconsider who they hire, because I felt unsafe. There was no one at the front desk after 7 AM, so I simply left the key on the counter to check out. They should be paying customers to stay in this motel, not the other way around.

We won’t go there again.
Pros:

The property was clean. The location was good.

Cons:

As a person with mobility difficulties, I need a first floor room. And, I requested such when I booked the rooms. I received a message from the hotel saying that they received my request, and that they would honor it. Upon arrival, we were informed that there were no first floor rooms available, and that they were “sorry”.
Not good. Also, the AC was going out all night so there was a high-pitched noise emanating from it.

Fair price good location
Pros:

Good location. Fair price. Free parking.

Cons:

I’ve stayed at this motel a few times but this time it was loud and they didn’t seem to care well for the property. They used to offer a basic continental breakfast but not anymore. They only offer coffee. The rooms need to be cleaned better and some fresh paint would help .
