The staff were welcoming, friendly, and always smiling. They also offered complimentary unlimited water, coffee, and tea, which was a nice touch. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and we were lucky to have a beautiful view of Mount Tam, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The complimentary breakfast was okay, but I wish there had been more variety and additional options to choose from. It was a nice perk, but expanding the selection would make it even better. The only downside is that the hotel itself feels a bit outdated. I think it has so much potential if the property were renovated, including the hallways, bathrooms, and guest rooms. With some updates, it could easily become an outstanding hotel. Overall, I had a pleasant stay. While I don't think the property itself is quite at a 4- or 5-star level yet, the exceptional customer service certainly deserves 5 stars. The staff truly made the experience memorable. Would I stay here again? Absolutely. The location and outstanding staff make it worth coming back. That said, I would love to see the hotel add a small lobby gift shop with snacks, drinks, and travel essentials to make the experience even more convenient for guests. The property has so much potential to truly stand out with some thoughtful updates and renovations. I would honestly love to renovate the entire place because I can see how beautiful it could become. The complimentary cheese and wine hour was a wonderful touch and something I really enjoyed and others as well. As for the cookies, they were good but cheap, but I think it would be even more memorable if the hotel partnered with a local Marin County bakery to offer fresh, locally made cookies or pastries. Supporting a local business would give guests a true taste of the area while creating a unique experience they'll remember. Those little details are what make a hotel stand out, and guests are more likely to remember both the delicious treats and the hotel that introduced them to them.

We come to Sausalito at least once a year and always stay at the Inn Above Tide. It's located on the waterfront and each room has the perfect view of the ocean, looking out towards the city of San Francisco and the San Francisco Bay Bridge. All the rooms have their own private deck where you can relax with a glass of wine or champagne and take in the beautiful views of the city of San Francisco. All the shops and restaurants on Bridgeway St. are within walking distance of the Inn. It is also right next to the Ferry where you can purchase tickets for a ride into San Francisco. When you arrive, you are greeted at the gate of their private parking lot, where your car is safely stored during your stay. Check-in is always easy and all the staff are extremely accommodating and friendly. They offer a Continental breakfast that is served buffet-style in their Drawing Room or you can have your breakfast delivered to your room for a $5 fee. Every evening from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. they have wine, cheeses, crackers, and fresh fruit for all guests in their Drawing Room. You can also arrange to have this delivered to your room as well. When we arrived to our suite, they had a lovely anniversary surprise waiting for us inside. They had a silver tray on our table, with a white rose, a bottle of champagne, a box of Napa Valley chocolates, and a lovely card to welcome us. When we booked our stay, for this trip, we chose the City Lights Suite. The inside of the suite is beautiful, luxurious, immaculate, and very spacious. The bed was very comfortable. I have an allergy to feathers. They made sure our pillows and bedding did not contain any down feathers. They had fresh, gorgeous orchids in the main part of the suite as well as the en suite bathroom. If you want to watch a movie, they have a huge catalog of DVDs, you can pick from, to watch in your room. They really go above and beyond to make your stay an unforgettable experience. That's why we always come back. I want to especially thank all the staff for making us feel welcome and making our stay extra special.

Recommend parking in the private lot upon arrival as the lot does fill up. The lot is enclosed by the motel so parking may be difficult for larger vehicles. My room was in the center structure on the second floor with parking slots underneath. My room was spacious with a balcony overlooking the parking lot. I could see down and check out my car. Bathroom and bedroom were spacious but a bit dated. Bathroom is located on our left with you enter. Closet space and a refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker on the right side. No USB or electrical outlet on the bedside table. I used a long USB to charge my phone overnight. Bed was comfortable. One thing I did not spot was an elevator for the second floor. Check in and out was fast and easy. The small office was locked when I checked out, but they have a walk-up window with 24-hour staff. It felt weird to walk up to the window in the dark to check out. For a quick one-night stay, location, cost, and facilities were more than adequate. I would definitely stay here again.

Walking in I was so confused how it looks so modern for such an old building but very well taken care of. The views were incredible of the whole bay (some harbor view but most is just the open water). They let us extend checkout time no prob and we were left a bottle of wine and birthday card per my request to do something special for my husbands birthday. The parking is a bit of a trek, down a steep hill on the hillsides and then you get your steps in going up all the stairs! But it's stunning and if money were no object.

My partner and I stayed in one of the two premium suites at Casa Madrona Hotel & Spa, and…read moreunfortunately the experience did not match the price point or the expectations. The view from our suite was beautiful, but that was the only part of our stay that felt worthy of the "best room" category. Service throughout the entire town was disappointing, and the hotel was no exception. Staff consistently seemed irritated by even simple requests and frequently hung up on us when we called the front desk. There is no microwave, no room service, and our suite required climbing roughly 70 steps each time we went up or down. Valet drivers operated recklessly, and retrieving our luggage required multiple calls before we finally asked for our keys and handled it ourselves. When they brought our car around, my partner was so concerned by the way they drove it that she photographed her rims. Dining in town was equally frustrating. Servers rushed us, were not attentive, and didn't offer dessert -- we had to ask several times. We're the type of people who enjoy long, relaxed meals with multiple courses, drinks, and dessert, but everything felt hurried and dismissive. DoorDash drivers didn't want to deliver to the hotel, and when they did, the food arrived cold. Overall, the amenities were lacking, the service was rude, and the entire experience made us feel like an inconvenience. For the price of one of the top suites, we expected at least decent hospitality. This is not a place we would return to, nor did it offer the relaxing experience we were hoping for. Ally & Penny

Across the Country, America's Best Value Inn offers affordable, clean, and convenient lodging…read moreaccommodations. As someone who travels for work 200+ days a year, ABVI is often my last minute resource for a room, especially during busy convention seasons. That said, I'm still scratching my head about this place... Drove up, parked outside the office, and noticed that the owner/manager family lives on premises, in a unit behind the front desk and also in the back of the motel. No one was at the front desk so I rang the bell. As young woman walks out, holding a conversation on her cordless landline phone, looks at me without smiling, and says, "Yes?" "Good afternoon, I'm checking in please." "Name?" I told her my name, she begins typing on her computer while still talking on her phone. As she hands me my room key I ask, "I understand you're undergoing renovations. Is this room away from the construction and quiet?" "What?!" she replied, a cold blank stare, and then back to her phone conversation. "Is the room quiet?" "They're all the same! Go down the path to your right!" and with that she walked back into the managers quarters and closed the door. As for the room, it was newly renovated but unfinished. I liked that there were toiletries, a refrigerator, microwave, and decent wifi. Pros- -Renovated rooms that are slightly falling apart -Relatively quiet -Super close to the freeway -Budget minded pricing Cons- -Consistently unfriendly staff (on two other occasions I asked for help but never got it) -Parking sucks (one night 4 commercial trucks parked in the guest spaces in front, taking up 2 parking spaces each) -Limited housekeeping staff -Little/no security and at night the parking lot, street outside, and paths are completely dark Seriously, this was no "The Best Bang For Your Buck". It wouldn't be my first or second choice of places to stay in the area. For $20-$30 more per night I'd recommend the "Holiday Inn Express", located directly across the street!

In general, everything is slowly falling apart here and they don't seem to be keeping up with it. Noisy junkie sounding AC unit, bathroom sink is starting to come apart at the base, dings and dirty marks all over the doors - they obviously don't care here. I thought there was sort of a breakfast thing happening, but when I went down there in the morning, there was just a fancy coffee machine and some weird old lady with dreadlocks hanging around, who seemed like she might be homeless and just loitering. Nothing else absolutely nothing. Thankfully, we've never seen bugs here, but we usually request the upper level so if you have to stay here, I guess that's probably a better bet. There were people that were being pretty noisy just a few doors down and we heard some lady talking all night up until about 2 AM and I don't know if it was the weird lady I saw in the lobby in the morning, but she had a high voice making it hard to sleep! While the location is pretty good. I don't think we're coming back here. It's too bad because this is a very nice area and I don't understand why someone would want to run a place like this. Clearly they don't care!

I had just spent the night in San Jose at an amusingly sketchy hotel, so my expectations were pretty low. This lil lodge is a great location, easy access. Eateries and markets are down the street. Yes, my shutters could use repair, but they were still functional. Room was small, but cozy, fit the bill. Microwave worked, TV, small fridge was nice n cold. For folks not used to traveling, a lot of rooms have single cup coffee makers (just google it if you need help figuring it out, they're pretty simple). To be honest, for the price, being one of the few places in town that still had a room, I wasn't expecting coffee, a fridge, or a microwave, so that was a pleasant surprise. Parking is easy, getting in and out of the property is easy. Yes it is older, so just by virtue of age, you're likely to possibly hear your neighbors shower, or to hear some creaky floors if you're on the bottom floor. It's near water...as someone who lives at the beach, this means bugs might come visit. Knock on wood though, this stay, I haven't yet seen a critter, and thankfully my pup has great ears and a great sniffer, so hopefully would give me a heads up if we had friends. But truly, even the highest end hotels have critters...again, you're near water. I haven't yet taken a shower, but again, my previous hotel started my day with a cold shower and a bar of soap, so my expectations are low. Just happy to be parked outside the room. The room smelled and looked clean when arrived, so that's what mattered most. If you have concerns, check out your room first, and bring up concerns immediately. Anyone can complain online, but if you need assistance, address it immediately. Staff seems friendly and willing to help.
