10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I were very happy with our room at The Marin Lodge. It is in a quiet neighborhood. It is located near very easy access to the 101 north and south (to San Francisco). The check in went smoothly and we received good information both at the time of check-in and in the in-room book. The book gave all kinds of information for emergency services, restaurants, area attractions, etc. Norma and Beethoven, are the very nice and hospitable owners of the property. It is well taken care of and lovely, Our room was spacious and very comfortable. The beds are comfortable. The shower is fabulous. It not only had wonderful water pressure, but the base of the walk in shower textured so it is not at slippery at all! We have no hesitation to recommend it to you! The price was very reasonable for such a nice property so well located. We will return when we are in the area, that's for sure!"

Simply marvelous 2 bedroom with kitchenette, grilling patio and grand balcony

10/10 Excellent
"Such a lovely view - drinking coffee on the good sized balcony felt like I was up in a tree house amidst the greenery. In reality you are less than a mile walk down hill to the vibrant San Rafael Downtown. The host responded quickly when I had walking direction questions. The shower was a dream. The bed was very comfortable and I had lots of room to make myself at home. Street parking was easy during the day but a bit challenging coming home after evening outings. I would totally come back next time I’m seeing friends in Marin easy to navigate to from the freeway."
