The lobby and restaurant were under construction. We stayed in the Venetian Room. It was smaller, darker and dated than it looked on their website photos. Needs some maintenance work or updating - chip paint, holes on the walls, some splashes of "something" on the walls, picture frames falling apart, our towels had holes, etc. Otherwise, good price, great location and walkable to downtown San Rafael.

Under construction. No one was there when I showed up, but I was two hours early for my reservation. There was no clear signage about where to enter, just a big sign that they changed owners. I honestly thought the place was closed but the nice lady next store told me they must be at lunch. My room (captains room) was near where workers were most of the night. I asked for an extra hour passed check out and they said no.

It was not clear from the posting that not every room had a private bathroom. Ours made use of shared facilities. Quaint, cute and a work in progress.

I will say that the bed was comfortable and the price was right. Once they finish with the restaurant construction the place will have a nice travelers lodge feel. The bathrooms are shared, so know that going in. Easy walk to downtown San Rafael and it was quiet at the property.

It’s criminal to charge what they charge for the room and property. The sofa bed was worn out, leather frayed, surface lumpy. Definitely not quality futon as we thought it would be. The carpet is disgusting. The faucets of the sink and bathtub both leaked continuously. There is no shower head!!! Seriously this was subpar hotel experience and I will never stay again nor will I recommend it to anyone. We should have stayed at the neighboring AC hotel which is new and much nicer. Very disappointed and mad at wasting so much money on this stay. Also, there was no mention of the property grounds being under construction. It was a mess and very unsafe and unpleasant. The only good thing to report was the nice employee named Enos.

We have fond memories of this wonderful place from 30 years ago. It is now being renovated by a charming, dedicated new owner. It is an easy walk to downtown shops, restaurants and the lovely Mission.
