The location is great and I love the architecture of the place. However the rooms need an upgrade. And ensuring that at least each room has an ironing board and iron. And the bathroom towels upgraded. You can increase to the cost of stay with overall complex upgrade to reflect 2025.

This was my 3rd stay (every year in July just to sleep while busy all day at sporting event). First year (2023) was about a 3.5 to 4.0 (out of 5) since I received a “garden” room in the 101-121 block. It was a pretty good stay in an old & aging motel, so I came back. 2nd year was Room 165 on the backside (noisy apartment party next door over back fence), so it was a sub-par stay. I thought I’d give the motel another chance this year and requested a “garden” room and got Room 140 (check-in clerk said it was a garden room). This room faced the 101 Fwy and was only 50-100m from the freeway. There was road noise all night and I had to leave the AC/fan and TV on all night to drown out the noise. I think this was my last stay. I didn’t see any investment/improvements over the 3 years, just more aging. Unless you get a room between 101-131, you will probably be disappointed even though you may save a few $’s over the other local hotel/motels.

The Inn Marin and Suites is in a very convenient location. I stayed here for four weeks, not including weekends. Unfortunately the rooms need a lot of upkeep—-lots of mold in bathrooms, overhead lights don’t work, refrigerators not working or freezing all food, tv didn’t work…..the frosted glass in the bathroom made changing uncomfortable. The roads around the property had huge potholes that were hard on my car. I am disappointed because it is pretty convenient and inexpensive…. But too many simple things didn’t work. The lights were fixed for one day and stopped working again. I was told to try unplugging and plugging in the tv (didn’t work) and I just fixed the toilet on my own each time. I requested room service but didn’t get any. I won’t be staying her again. Oh well.

The rooms were quaint wooden floor rooms. The bathrooms were older style with wooden shutters for the window. Our room did not have very much water pressure in the shower. The shower floor was a little slippery. The pillows were great. The breakfast was limited to cold cereal, toast and bagels.

Good luck with your improvements.

The exterior of the property is poor. I believe that they are working to improve. If our room hadn’t been recently updated, clean and comfortable, we would have gone to another hotel. The lobby and continental breakfast area and offerings were good. The staff were all good and accommodating.

The photos on Google looked beautiful, but when we actually got there, it was disappointing from the moment we tried to enter the parking lot. The road to the check-in area was so narrow it only fit one car, so we had to park in the back lot and walk all the way around the building. Our first impression of the inn from the back was... "Oh no, this looks so crappy—we’ve been tricked." All the photos on Google only showed the inside, but the outside, especially around the parking lot, looked like an old, run-down motel. To make things worse, I nearly passed out when I saw cockroaches crawling on the bathroom walls in the middle of the night.

Landscape does not match photos. Checked in on a Saturday at 4:30pm, landscapers were still working on the property. They were blowing away stuff right outside my window. My room smelt like fresh paint. When I notified the front, they couldn’t put me in another room because they had no other vacancies. The bathroom was tiny and overall, the room was not impressive at all. Jacuzzi was out of order. Breakfast was coffee and store bought bagels, that’s it. We opted to grab breakfast elsewhere, it really was a joke. I would never stay here again.
