The room was clean, but the TV remote was frustratingly difficult to use.

Why I’m torn on this

Convenient location, friendly staff who made check-in a breeze. The room was pristine and inviting, with good amenities like a coffee maker. Breakfast at the on-site restaurant was tasty and satisfying!

The decor felt dated and certainly needs a facelift. Breakfast options were limited and not very exciting, leaving much to be desired. Also, I encountered some noise issues from adjacent rooms.

we had a fantastic time at villa inn! we were upgraded to a king room, which was super spacious and well-furnished. the bed was really comfy, and the shower was hot and powerful. the staff made us feel right at home, and the breakfast was delicious! it’s conveniently located near route 101, making it easy to explore nearby attractions.

Had an awesome time with friends! We explored the nearby trails to Battery Spenser and enjoyed some great military history. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was solid with lots of choices. Definitely a great spot for a group getaway.

One downside was that my room was on the second floor with no elevator, which made lugging bags a hassle.

The kids loved exploring the nearby trails at Battery Spenser. Plus, the room was clean and accommodating for our large family. It’s a great spot for those looking for value and convenience, especially given the charming family-owned vibe.

For dads, it would be great if there were more family-friendly activities nearby.

I appreciated the cleanliness and the small kitchen with a fridge. The comfortable bed and good breakfast options. I'd definitely return for another stay!

This was just an optimal selection for a momentary visit in San Rafael with all in all brilliant value for money. The friendly staff even lent me their Wall Street Journal to read in the morning. I'd suggest checking if the AC is working before settling in.

The welcoming staff made my experience delightful, especially when they offered helpful hiking tips. The spacious King Room was comfortable, equipped with a refrigerator and microwave for convenience. Breakfast was limited, with only light options available, and the on-site restaurant was closed except for breakfast, making dining less versatile. The room appliances could use an upgrade, as some were outdated, and the heating system was a bit noisy at times.

I enjoyed my stay for 5 nights in a Queen Room. The staff was cute and helpful. Breakfast options were varied with good coffee. The cleaning crew maintained a high level of cleanliness. It was easy to access the nearby trails and downtown.

Comfortable room with decent space and good amenities for the price. Breakfast options lack variety. Great access to local hiking trails.

During my stay, I appreciated the cute staff and clean rooms. The breakfast offered fresh options that made my mornings good. While the room decor felt a bit dated, the overall comfort and service made up for it. A solid choice near local attractions.

I enjoyed my stay at Villa Inn, especially the welcoming staff who were attentive and helpful. The breakfast provided fresh pastries and quality coffee, making my mornings delightful. The location was convenient, close to lovely walking trails and attractions.

Room decor could use some updating.

I had a pretty good time at Villa Inn. The rooms were spacious, neat, and included a fridge, coffee machine, and microwave. I loved the comfortable bed and clean bathroom. The location is fantastic. I could easily access Muir Woods and downtown San Rafael. The restaurant on-site served delicious food with friendly staff. However, the bathroom could use a makeover. the fittings are old and worn. The breakfast was average, needed more variety, and the carpet in the room felt a bit outdated and dirty. Overall, I enjoyed my stay but see room for improvements.

Strong Wi-Fi, clean comfortable room, but parking was tight during my stay.
