Peaceful property, older and vintage but still pleasant. Cleanliness of the bathroom needed to be better as there were cobwebs in the window and splats on the wall. Beds were comfortable.

A safe, clean and no-frills inexpensive place to stay just outside San Rafael. Among many places much more pricey, it's a find. I haven't tried to adjoining restaurant or its free continental breakfast. I'll let others review it.
