This a convenient and comfortable hotel that we enjoy staying at when we visit family in Marin. The staff is always helpful and friendly. The rooms have all the basic amenities and are clean. Overall, a great value given their room rates.

This place is a hidden gem. The family that runs are very nice people. It is a real bargain. It is on a busy street and close to the freeway, but not noisy at all.

Marin Lodge is a well-furnished and well maintained little motel. It has some nice touches in the decor & furniture, and a secluded feeling because of the landscaping. Although there’s no breakfast, they have a small takeout selection with good muffins and fruit to get you going. It appears to be family-run and they’re nice people. And the price is always reasonable.

Believe the reviews—this is a great place for rest and relaxation. Our room was lovely, outside common areas to relax, easy to find and park. Best part is the staff—lovely, friendly people that make you feel like family. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Wonderful family owned property. To be honest, we weren't expecting a lot, but it was very cute and unique! We knew we wouldn't be staying in the room a lot, as we were exploring, the area so it was the perfect place to come back to each night. Attention was paid to detail, and the owners were very kind. Great coffee, fruit, and muffins in the morning.

This is a really clean, quiet motel with great service. The front desk staff were very courteous. The room was clean and neat. It was small for our family of 4, but we were expecting as much. The bedding, linens, and towels were all nice quality. The pillows were a little flat, so if you're a full/firm pillow person, stack them or bring your own. There were good quality pastries and coffee in the office in the morning. The neighborhood was very quiet and convenient to restaurants and the highway. Would definitely stay again.
