Noisey, paper thin walls. At check in the clerk seemed to not pay attention to a single word I said. When checking out, i was asked how my stay was. I stated not very good, refrigerator in room would make loud popping noises when running, mentioned I could hear the guest next door coughing. She had no response. As I... More

The organic shampoo and conditioner in the shower turned my hair into pure silk. This little treat is one example of the tiny comforts that adorn this place. The location was easy to find which is important for clueless out of Towners. The grounds were quite inviting. They have the most comfortable hammock chairs in the courtyard that provided a... More

We spent two days and nights here in a jacuzi suite in late March. After a long day's drive, the Inn and its staff was welcoming on our arrival about 10:30 p.m. As we are drove in and opened the car door, we could smell jasmine. A great start. The facility is single floor spread out over 3 buildings. The... More

... but this hotel was perfect for us. Even though it is just off the highway, the tree-covered hill next to it blocks the noise and all the green space/courtyard gives the place such a restful feel. We slept so well! This has the ease of a motel (free parking) and the room of a suite (we stayed in a... More

I stayed for five nights during the Bioneers Conference in mid-October. The staff was very friendly and even offered to drive me to restaurants around the area when requested. The place is very clean and I experienced no big hassle. More

Rooms in a row, with cars parked in front. An old fashioned roadside motel with rooms in an asphalt lake. Really can't open your shades or windows as people are walking to their rooms, or parking their cars, right in front of your room. Inadequate lighting in the rooms, very low voltage bulbs, and our ceiling light did not work.... More

While we always strive to exceed client expectations, it is unfortunate that this occasion of misunderstanding did not allow us to respond to a guest directly. There are many points in this guest’s review that are inaccurate and do not give a completely true picture of the Inn Marin. Our guest rooms do not have ceiling lights and we can... More

My wife and I were traveling from Marin to Lake Tahoe and needed a place to stop over for the night after a long day of mountain biking near Fairfax. We found Inn Marine online and it looked great from the photos. When we called, they had two rooms available. Great! We said we'd take one. What they failed to... More

We stayed two nights for a a wedding, overall experience was pretty good, clean rooms, with all the perks, friendly staff and very handy as you park your car in front of the room for free, I liked that ! The breakfast was OK, nothing spectacular, toast bagels, muffins, coffee juice, frijoles (beans) and waffles. I would definitely go back... More

We wanted to stay outside of San Francisco, but the first few places were solidly booked. We were referred here by one of the hotels. Avery was the front desk receptionist to whom we spoke prior to arriving. She was WONDERFUL! She helped us get the best rate (AAA) and told us about restaurants in the area, wineries in Sonoma/Napa,... More

We stayed at the Inn Marin for the first time in early August, 2011 while traveling about in the Bay area looking at colleges.
