Might stay there again but would have to be guaranteed a decent room. Not a great value. Very expensive for what it had
Pros:

Location excellent. Staff excellent. Breakfast outstanding. Room was old, smelled terrible, and bathroom was very old and needs renovation. Furnishings were shabby and in bad condition.

Cons:

Végig azon gondolkoztam, hogyan lehet, hogy ez a hely csak három csillag??
Pros:

Káprázatos helyen, hatalmas fenyőerdők között lévő szálloda. Reggeli is kiváló, kétfajta quiche-sel, lazaccal, gyümölcsökkel. Du. 4.30 és 6 között bor-és sajtkóstoló is van. Mill Valley is nagyon jó város, kár volt átmennünk Sausalitoba vacsorázni.

Cons:

Nem volt ilyen.

This was one of the most exceptional hotel stays we have ever enjoyed and look forward to returning.
Pros:

The room was extremely well appointed and quiet with an exceptional view of the redwoods off the balcony. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the location around the corner from downtown MV was superb. We simply adored our stay at the MVI.

Cons:

In all honesty, there was not a thing we did not like.

fabulous long weekend away
Pros:

Breakfast was fabulous, way more than expected and the staff would make espresso drinks upon request. All of the staff were friendly. the location was perfection. It is super close to the Dipsea stairs, as well as downtown Mill Valley.

Cons:

Fridge stopped working, when we mentioned it to staff at checkout they said that it had been moved to be on its own switch. they acknowledged that a sign/note needs to be posted.
