Had a nice little restaurant on the property. The older son was very nice when we ate there. The owner is a tough old bird. Some of the people that stayed there were kind of sketchy but otherwise nice room.

Comfortable motel at good price
This is the motel we stay at when visiting family in San Anselmo/San Rafael. While not walking distance, it is in town for short drives to the people and places we want to see. Nice staff. Clean and comfortable rooms. Nice breakfast spread for us to start our days.
