Great stay! Was concerned that proximity to 101 would be loud, but my room was well off the frontage, quite quiet and very well appointed. The shower was particularly nice. The free breakfast was better than most, and overall, if I needed to stay in North Marin ever again, I'd come back to Marinwood Suites.

I liked that,fpr my needs, this was a great location. I liked easy acess to the freeway going both north and south. I liked the Peets coffee machine with the breakfast, offering such delicious choices. Liked having the parking so close to my room. I didn't like hearing the freeway noises all through the night.

Trip started out great. Woke up to take shower and had no hot water. Ran it for 10 mins and still nothing. Had hot water the night before. When checking out, I told the front desk that I didn’t have hot water and was told that “no one else complained so don’t know why”. Really? Might as well call me a liar. Would not return.
