Family vacation and a Ball game.
Came to Petaluma to visit family. The property was well kept and clean. Parking was a little tight, but it was free. Close to grocery shopping and restaurants. Close to downtown Petaluma and a 40 min. drive to San Francisco. Definitely would stay here again.

Noisy
Check in was interesting. There is a machine with a screen in the lobby and you check in with someone virtually, like Zoom. Checkout was the same. I found it pretty off putting.
The room was super uncomfortable. We stayed in the larger room with two king beds and a sofa. Everything was extremely noisy. The floor, doors, couch, bed, chairs, everything squeaked and creaked. Additionally, all the furniture was way too soft. I would have preferred sleeping on a marshmallow.
All the staff were friendly and helpful, but the room was awful.

I liked the customer service and the place. My only issue was that the picture I saw on Expedia and what I was given were very different.
