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.

It's old and unkept, very large property, perhaps not much staff to keep up with. It's good for one night, but not for more than that. We had no deadbolt lock on our door and the bathroom sink didn't drain quickly. The bed was clean.

Made reservation online, we needed a place to park with at least a security camera and he was not interested in helping in any way.
AND...
Once you make a reservation at this poorly ran hotel you will NOT be getting a refund, this money grabbing establishment does not give refunds for any reason.
Very inconsiderate way to run a business.

The place was fair and met my needs. Booked Hotel on Hotels.com and still was charged with a daily booking fee which was not disclosed upfront.

Will never stay there again!
The room was fine except the service is in need of real improvement. When I checked in, it seemed like I was bothering the check-in the staff. No welcome no smile no forthcoming word formation. Just handed my card and that’s it. When my stay was over, I had realized I had lost my EarPods in the room and I had called for help at the hotel and they responded like I was bothering them again. No help no nothing. Staff even seemed irritated that I called. So now I’ve lost my AirPods. This reallly can’t be that difficult to be nice and helpful.

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.

Room did not have hot water. Manager upgraded us to full suite w/kitchen & plenty of hot water! Very Nice!
Rooms could use a little more maintenance but overall a good value for this area.
