Booked a king room with bay view. Received accessible room with a fence view. On questioning, we were told they were over booked. We insisted, bearing in mind we are top tier with IHG and Platinum with Hotels.com. Miraculously, a room was found that better reflected our booking, although not in full. To compensate, a $50 discount was offered and accepted. At checkout, no one new anything about the agreed discount. The operative made numerous phone calls and promised to sort it out once the manager began work later. Four days later the discount was applied. Overall, a very poor experience.

Staff were very helpful. Breakfast was good. Room was quiet. However, they don't give the cleaners enough time to do a good job cleaning. Beds were fine, but the bathroom needed work. I would stay there again.

Perfect location and amenities!

The location is perfect! Super close to downtown Mill Valley with great food and shopping. Also its proximity to San Francisco is really convenient for trips into the city without having to stay in the city with higher prices of hotels and parking. The offered free bicycle access which is awesome considering the trail it is located on. The fridge/freezer unit was particularly helpful as the freezer is a separate compartment and held all of our ice packs cold from our cooler for our journey!
