"Enos the gentleman at the front desk was great and very helpful! My room was very clean and cozy….This is a very charming and quirky hotel that feels more like a bed-and-breakfast… I stayed in the Dale Evans room, which is in the section of the hotel that has shared bathrooms and kitchen… There was no one else on my end that evening during the week so I had the kitchen and bathroom to myself. My room had a balcony right out the door overlooking the street which was very nice. It’s a busy street...

Downtown San Rafael
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (267 reviews)
"The hotel is very modern and the room was spacious, clean, and had a nice view of the mountains. However, when booking through Expedia I was charged the nightly room rate and a room deposit. When I checked into the hotel, I was charged a second time for the room, and again for the room deposit. It has been a nightmare trying to get this billing issue resolved. Being charged $655 for a one night stay is ridiculous. I probably wouldn't stay again due to this issue. "
