8/10 Good
"The room smelled overpoweringly of bleach, which made being in the room and sleeping difficult. We could open a window, but it didn't help too much, since there was no cross ventilation. The receptionist didn't seem very concerned. The breakfast was outstanding. The bed was comfortable; the room quite small given the high booking price. Overall, I would not stay here again--I could go to a restaurant for a fine breakfast."

Cozy Quiet Cottage Close to Trails, Wine Country & SF and Lots of Light!

10/10 Excellent
"We spent a few nites here at this lovely cottage. The location is perfect! It’s nestled in the trees and there are even redwoods on the front lawn! The neighborhood is super quiet and having parking was a big plus. We were about a 10 minute ride to the larkspur ferry (that got us right into the city without the parking or traffic) you are also close enough to the coast (Muir woods, Muir beach, mount tam etc) Inside the cottage- was great! It’s a tiny space good for one or 2 travelers. The bed was king size and very comfortable the shower was soothing after a long day of outdoor play and having a W/D was a big plus. There is even a small balcony to enjoy morning coffee while watching the neighborhood deer and listening to the birds. Rusty keeps her cottage in tip-top shape and was quick to respond to any questions. It’s was a good place to stay-it felt like home. Clean quiet and comfortable"
