Checkin was at 3pm and we showed up only to be told that it would be an hour before ready. After…read moreone hour I asked if the room was ready and they said another 20 minutes. Eventually we got our room a little after 4:30. The staff only has 10 rooms to clean. We were on the bottom floor and the noise coming from above was terrible. People walking back and forth all night, moving chairs, etc. we heard everything. Don't book rooms 6-10 unless you want to hear people upstairs all night long. Room had a jacuzzi bath which I thought would be nice after a long day but when I tried to fill the tub, the stopper would not work. For as expensive the room was, it was a very very disappointing experience.

Maybe I'm biased because I went to see my dad's band play, but we had a great time here and the…read morefood was shockingly good! You wouldn't expect an old saloon way out in Bolinas to have such delicious, fresh Mexican food, but they do! Not only were the burritos and tacos delicious, but the pico, the guac, the green AND red salsas were all basically perfect - fresh, delicious, not too spicy, the exact flavor profile I want from each one! Seriously, the tangy green sauce was delicious and barely spicy, while the red sauce was just spicy enough and had a ton of that smokey flavor that makes it so good! And those THICK, crunchy, salty chips - those are the exact right chips! They also have a great drink selection, and I'll probably come back sometime for lunch so I have an excuse to try their local coffee and breakfast cocktails. Also worth mentioning that if you drive another 100 feet down the road, the ocean is right there.

The small cups (about 1 cup) were half filled with spanish rice, the other cup half filled with black beans. HALF-filled. Our fish tacos had a very small portion of fish with a smattering of cabbage. I'm not one to complain about portions, but this is one review I have to write - portions were measly for $39. Thought I received a kids meal. This is a cool place to visit - maybe just have a drink, because the food is just not all there - literally.

Nestled in the cute little town of San Anselmo, you can walk to nearby shops, or you are a short drive away from forestry features such as redwoods and fragrant pines, as well as the Pacific Ocean. Built in 1926, this hotel has original wainscoting in some rooms and hallways that whisper of times gone by if you stop to listen. The breakfast on weekends is comparable to any 5 star hotel with homemade meat and vegetarian quiches, sausage, bacon, potatoes, and an array of breads. Even on the weekdays, the offerings are plenty with incredible croissants, muffins and bagels as well as yogurt and granola and any combination of breads for your toast, as well a fresh fruit. You can eat inside sitting in front of a fireplace or even better, take your plate to the beautiful outdoor garden area with water features and greenery. The GM is always available for any questions you may have or a friendly conversation. The booking agency that I used did not contact him regarding my request for a handicapped room because I was traveling with my sister who is in a wheelchair. When I arrived and saw that I was booked upstairs I contacted him and he changed our room immediately even before she arrived , as well as offering to bring all of my things downstairs for me. Our stay was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend this place!

We had friends in from Los Angeles and they stayed here at my suggestion. I met them to help get…read morethem parked and carry their bags upstairs. They were there for two nights. The good: easy to make reservations and arrangements were clear. The Inn is convenient and clean. It is charming and has some very lovely touches that you would never get in a hotel. Parking is easy and reasonable ($10 per day). The beds are comfortable and supportive--a key element as my friend has had extensive back surgery. And, breakfast is included and served on the lovely patio. When my cousins came to visit, I had them stay at the Inn. They raved about the breakfast! My friends raved about the great lighting in the bathroom. What to expect: there is no elevator and you have to carry your bags up a staircase that can be challenging if you have much large or heavy luggage. The floors are not completely even in all rooms. Some are just a little bit off and are carpeted. It's easy to trip over the change in floor level, as there is no marking. Nice surprise: there is a cut in the wall to show the original knob and tube wiring. It's got a plexiglass cover. But the preservation of history and education is a lovely idea.

Shared bathrooms,one w small shower the other a claw leg tub shower. Rooms have a small shared kitchen area w coffee maker,microwave and fridge . Continental breakfast included as well. Great value for the money! Live music below these rooms Tues-Thur. from 7- 10 pm so if you need quiet early in the evening I suggest a room further from the main dining bar area. Staff treated me so well I can't remember the last time Ive had such a pleasant experience in a hotel . Had a few friends for dinner last night and we couldn't have had a better time.. great food ,wine and fabulous service. Thanks to all of you there at The Panama!

Our day started with brunch, which blew us away. The service was calm and intentional, a great start to the day. It was hot out, but the misters kept us cool. We both participated in the Pick your own bouquet at $35. It came with a tall vase to fill, someone to explain the floral do's and dont's of the field, and a pair of shears to borrow for your duty. The paths between the flowers are dirt and grass, so bear in mind your footwear and attire when booking! This would be a perfect spot for families. Overall an incredible experience, being able to even walk the grounds was enough to make a good day, great.

This is a beautiful venue! I stopped by here with a friend to try their brunch and check out the…read moregrounds. Brunch opens at 10am. They take reservations online but walk-ins too. The server told us they operate out of a food truck. So the menu is limited. But what they make is really good! We ordered the lemonade, chicken and waffles, huevos rancheros divorciados, and the strawberry champagne sherbet. Service was very prompt! The actual menu in-person had a couple items that aren't on the sample menu including a couple more dessert options like fig ice cream. We really liked everything we tried! The portions were pretty good. If coming here for food I'd recommend getting here early since food trucks have limited capacity. You're welcome to stroll around the property both the flower farm and the inn side before or after your meal. The parking situation is a gravel lot. So it may not be the most handicap accessible place. We had a lot of fun stopping by Park Winters. They were setting up for a wedding so the inn side would have been closed for the event starting at 1pm. The check also came with a small map of the property for you to keep. This was very helpful in exploring the property. The only caveat is this is the countryside. Wear long pants or be prepared with insect repellent! Even at 10am in the summer my legs were bitten by mosquitoes. (Type O blood. Mosquito magnet here.) I'd like if they burned some citronella candles to help with mosquitoes. The rest of the dining venue was so thoughtfully designed including timed misters (like at theme parks) to help keep the area cool. Definitely check it out if you're curious or in the area.

My son loves the interior with the walkways visible from the ground level - one could say he was impressed with his first view. The staff at the front desk is always so friendly and welcoming. They are why I've chosen to start again and again, even when it leaves us farther from our final destination. Every check-in, every entry truly leaves one feeling welcome. The gals I've had the pleasure of talking with remember us from day to day, it really does make for a wonderful stay. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, always clean and stocked. Daily cleaning is a treat with many hotels skipping days now. The restaurant is convenient for dinner and offers a very nice breakfast included with your stays. The bar and ample seating around it great to unwind in if you'd prefer not to stay in your room. This is our hotel of choice when visiting the area.

They kindly answered my questions and gave me tips about the hotel's amenities. The service during happy hour and breakfast were great. My room was clean, modern, and very spacious. There was a living room/office area in the front, and a bedroom in the back, separated by a bathroom. The furniture was spotless, comfortable, and in good condition. The bed was very comfortable, had plenty of pillows, and nice clean sheets. There was also a refrigerator, and two TVs! I stopped by for the free happy hour and they had drinks, chips, salsa, pretzels, peanut butter, veggies, and dip. It was a nice way to unwind after a long day. The breakfast was also free, and included things like oatmeal, eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, fruit, yogurt, and toast. Juice, coffee, and tea too! It was a really great stay, and I hope to be back.

On a last minute birthday request by my 14 yr old granddaughter to stay in hotel w/ hot tub. We'd…read moregotten a res. on line advertised at $110 +taxes and fees; hotel site, much more. Hotel confirmed they'd honor third party reservation. First pros: When we finally found lobby, we were greeted by a feeling of elevated comfort, & elegance w/ the black-coated front desk staff, earth of faux fire place, leather couches, & fancy chairs. Around the corner are the lowered lights of a bar & grill w/ lovely accents of polished wood throughout. Large glass windows surround a beautiful blue outdoor pool with hot tub in garden setting. In lobby, 2 options of chilled filtered water, 1 plane and 1 infused w/ fresh melon, a nice touch to give good 1st impressions. They said it's ok to invite hubby and son to join my daughter & grandkids & I to enjoy jacuzzi, even though they weren't staying; seemed generous, + towels provided. Open till 10pm. There were nicely scented toiletries in bathroom & MAX, HBO, YOUTUBE, and other streaming services, free w/ your stay. MANY CONS: Our room had ugly window view to parking lot; we asked if we could change to double queen pool view, they said no, hotel only has single King rooms w/ pool view and any others were booked. Ok, we did Book last minute. Next day, Service Tech said there had been plenty rooms avail. w/ double queen, pool view, but 3d floor + our room would soon be renovated, and why it was sub par. Why the lie? Jacuzzi: We visited the area earlier in eve, 6:40 pm when it looked lovely and aglow with gas fire pits & other outdoor ambient lighting... sadly, spa not hot, and just one jet working when i kept pushing button to start them? Service tech said they only come on w/ sensor w/ more folks in tub (whaaat?) he said, jets won't come on at night because of chemicals they add to hot tub (whaaat?). I hoped by AM, spa'd be hot so we could enjoy our AM coffee & take a dip! By AM it was so cold by pool we did not want risk of experience night before w/ cold spa, so resorted to regular tub soak in room. Sadly, tub plug broken and won't fill! Settled for shower :( No working bathroom fan! Not good for steamy mirror nor other smelly reasons fan is needed in there. Room window made of thin single pane glass that if child or anyone fell into, it'd easily break and we'd fall to cement, 3 floors down; no screen on window that opened 3 inches. Also large chips out of paint on window wall, size of apple. Heater tricky to get fan low, less noisy, & temp right. It loudly blew cold air and had to be turned off. No working USB charger ports, only 1 defunct port & service tech said it was disabled in anticipation of remodel, & also why furniture was old, and my mattress felt like a heavy person slept in it creating very bad dip; mattress needs changing! Fridge freezer, though coated in ice, not cold enough for ice cream. Ours went from frozen at store to melted beyond eatability, w/ in 2 hrs. While hubby awaited our return from shopping he tried to get beer at bar, but found it closing by 9:pm. Instead of letting him know he'd closed out his cash register & that my hubby could get beer to take to room from front desk, bartender rudely said, "i just closed, sorry!" instead of suggesting beer at front desk. We did not realize was possible till too late. Before checkout we waited over an hour for service tech to come look @ bathtub; we called 3 times over that hour & each time, told they were sending someone. When tech finally showed up he explained all about up coming remodel. Why the sub par room? Punishment for using 3d party? With each issue w/ room, we tried calling front desk for help. 1st time, when we asked for more bath towels, no one'd answer, only machine says staff is w/ other clients, even @ 2:00am when i wanted heat but couldn't get cold air to stop blowing. No one ever answered @ that hour. I gave up & just got extra blanket from closet (there was only one!). I thought, they're sick of hearing from room 309. When checking down stairs, staff were not visibly busy..... usually 2 agents working, just typing on their computers & no guest in front of them. Service tech said, trouble with phones was part of future renovation issue. When we'd finally reached staff over phone to ask for 2 more bath towels (since we're 4 and there were only 2 towels), they brought 2 tiny floor mat towels! We had to physically go ask for bath towels! Con: My granddaughter held bed quilt up to light of window and horrible stained filth showed through; see pic's. They tried to offer minimal points toward discounted stay only to be used on hotel site, where dilapidated hotel costs more money. Not worth it we'd do better at home. Not recommended.

Stayed here one night while in town for a work event. I was between this and another hotel nearby,…read morebut the Yelp reviews sold me on this hotel. The space was clean and comfortable, and the room large and spacious. I had a king room which came equipped with the bed, a couch, desk, mini fridge, and microwave. The parking lot was nice and large, and finding a spot close to the main entrance was easy, though there is a slight hill to get up to the front. A continental breakfast buffet was included, and it was surprisingly good for a free hotel breakfast. It included pancakes, breakfast sausage, eggs, breads and pastries, cereal, fruit, and a few other items. When I checked in I was assigned a room that unfortunately smelled like cigarette, I immediately went down to the desk and they were able to switch me into another room that didn't. The hallways were a little loud and I could hear everytime a door opened and closed, luckily it wasn't too busy of a night, but I did still notice it.
