    I didn't read any reviews before booking this place, which I normally do. So I was surprised at how old the building is, and some areas need cleaning and updating. I was mostly surprised that there wasn't a microwave in our room. We brought food that needed to be warmed up but had to go to the lobby to use the shared microwave. You have to call or text for one to be brought to you. There was only one guy filling requests. Hope they can hire and retain more help. Eventually, someone delivered a microwave, but our food was already warm. Anyway, the beds were comfortable, the lobby was beautiful and updated, and the workers were friendly and down-to-earth. The location was perfect, close to the job, and across the street from Safeway and restaurants. I walked the grounds in the morning, and it was nice and peaceful. Cobwebs were on the gates and also on our balcony railing. The guys had a good time shooting hoops too. Nice basketball court, pool, and plenty of spots to relax outside.

    Wow! This Best Western exceeded all our expectations. We stayed here under a wedding block, and I was impressed by the amenities. The pool is huge and there are two hot tubs. There are rocking lounge chairs near your room so you can look out on to the expansive courtyard with picnic tables and a basketball court. They even took over the restaurant next to the them for the complimentary breakfast so there is plenty of space for large parties. The rooms were typical for a Best Western but everything else was not. I took one star off because the staff were pretty grumpy when we asked if we could do an early check-in.

    The distance between disabled room and disabled parking spaces.

    PROS Friendly, accommodating staff. Best Western is one of the few corporate hotels who is making a real effort to communicate consistently with their customers. They are, from my experience, responsive and responsible. Everyone working at this hotel is to be commended for a job well done. They keep the place up, as best they can, and are truly hospitable. The pool is terrific, though understandably busy on summer weekends. The breakfast is good and the people working in the breakfast room are saints. The common areas and rooms (we had two) are kept clean and tidy. CONS If you are disabled, in spite of offering #ADA rooms, this is not the hotel for you. The two #ADA rooms we booked were at the very back of the hotel (Room 134 and 135) as far from the pool and breakfast room as possible. Parking for the rooms is also some distance from the actual rooms themselves and requires you to traverse along narrow corridors, past many rooms opening directly onto your path. In front of the so-called #ADA room, there are three very steep steps (photos attached) which could be dangerous for disabled persons. Additionally, the floors in the two rooms mentioned here are uneven, with a jolting hump between the area with the shower and toilet and the sink. This was a trip hazard. The whole room was clearly not designed for disabled people at all. Throwing in a wheelchair shower, does not make a hotel room fit for disabled people. I wish more hotels understood this.

    We stayed here for two nights during a Labor Day staycation. Why stay in Corte Madera? Because its centrally located to both Tiburon and Sausalito, two places we wanted to visit for the fine dining and outdoor activities. Although I am mostly a Marriott/Bonvoy fan, the Best Western Hotel Brand is gradually growing on me. The BW Corte Madera takes the term, resort to a new level. Definitely a 5-star stay. * Rooms were large, clean, and equipped with comfy beds. The layout was a bit funky with toilet in one room and bath/shower located behind the TV in the bedroom, LOL! * Free and fast wifi. I had no problem binge watching Stranger Things from my Kindle Fire. * Lots of amenities - basketball, junior Olympic pool, jacuzzi, ping pong, and mini golf. The fitness center was really tiny. No free weights but a good universal cable machine. You can do challenging flyes, laterals, lat pulls, and curls with this. * Huge breakfast buffet from 6:30am to 9:30am. They converted an actual restaurant to a breakfast-only place. Tip: The hotel is right next to an entrance to US-101S. To reach US-101N, take the US-101S and take the first exit - it will lead to US-101N.

    Bedbug's are everywhere in the room!

    I don't normally do any reviews! but this time I feel like I have to warning people about this BW hotel. I was there for four days for business my company booked me at this place since Holiday in was booked out. It was a nightmare bedbugs all over the bed I'm afraid to spiders and at 4 in the morning a huge spiders was coming down the ceiling not just that but the smell there is very filthy everything is very old and a lot of noises I checked out at 5am after leaving I'm still dealing, with all these bites in my body and having nightmares about the spider. I don't recommend this place at all! Room 201

I was surprised by how high the price was for an ordinary room with 2 doubles (with tax and fees, $329!), and we were put off by an additional fee of $15 per day in an unsecured parking lot! Here's what we liked about it: Beds were comfortable Small patio with chairs Pretty quiet from about 8pm to 6am Nice well tended courtyard Conveniently located Clean Here's what made it worth less than half what we paid: Absolutely no information in the room about anything at the hotel except the escape route from our room. Nothing about food, TV service, location of ice makers, etc. Incidentally with three floors they only had ice makers on the first floor The one lounge chair was wedged in between the bed and the patio door, but if you wanted to have your coffee there in the morning, no where to put down your cup. The in room coffee maker had enough to cartridges to make 3 cups of coffee in a room that has capacity for 4 people Only paper cups for the coffee Limited channels available, and if you wanted to access Prime or Netflix, you had to sign into your own account or pay a fee Only enough towels for 3 people Terrible lighting throughout, with the least strong lighting specially reserved for over the one sink in the anteroom to the bathroom, the only place available to do your makeup. Only grab and go food with long common tables if you wanted to eat in the lobby area. I paid over $20 for one medium sized coffee, a small blueberry scone and a one serving size of yogurt. Considering the price benefit, We will definitely not stay again.

Apathetic staff with no security of any kind. Read that; none and hold that thought or you'll wish you did. Room robbery common as are car smash and grab break-ins. The area and parking lots are notorious for smash n grabs and car trunks jimmied open. Good chance you're next. One room robbery occurred on our stay and tragic for the couple that lost their valuables. Locals say hotel staff is in on the crimes. Not prosecuted in California and Marriott will deny and distance themselves for any liability or any compensation in any situation. They are rehearsed with canned reactions if any. Close to food options and things to do. Not pet friendly. Lots and lots of strict rules. No futons no roll-aways no nothing. Breakfast not as good as Hamptons. Easy walking distance from Ionna and the horrible ChargePoint EV charging.

If you understand what a two-star hotel should offer, you honestly can't go wrong here. When I first arrived, the small lobby had a strong smell of chicken curry, and no one was at the front desk. I rang the bell... and instead of a receptionist, a tiny Chihuahua came out and stared me down. It was unexpected, to say the least. After about five minutes, the manager (Naveem) arrived and checked me in. He was accommodating and granted my request for an upstairs room. He even sells small bottles of water!! I was able to grab two for $1, which was convenient. The room itself was clean and fully equipped ....no bells and whistles, but it had everything you need: mini fridge, microwave, ironing board, hair dryer, central heat and AC. There were a few cosmetic issues (some wall scuffs and a door knob dent in the bathroom wall), but nothing that affected the functionality of the stay. My TV initially wasn't working, but Naveem sent a technician within a couple of hours who quickly fixed it. That responsiveness mattered. For two nights, my total was around $250 during Valentine's Day and Presidents' Day weekend...which is honestly not bad at all. You also get free self-parking and easy freeway access, making the location very convenient. There's even a Burger King about two blocks away if you need a late-night bite! Overall, for a quick 2-3 night stay in the San Rafael area, this place does the job and then some. Simple, affordable, and surprisingly reliable for its category.

    :This Motel Has BEDBUGS:::::…read more I stayed at North Bay Inn in San Rafael following surgery and had an extremely concerning experience. Within days of checking in, I began experiencing repeated insect bites and ultimately documented multiple bugs in the room with photo and video evidence. This created an unsafe and very distressing environment, especially while recovering from two surgeries and having limited mobility. I reported the issue to management expecting a reasonable and responsible response. Instead, I was met with denial and blame. I was offered only a minimal partial refund for unused nights if I agreed to sign a waiver, which was not a reasonable solution given the circumstances. I also requested to be moved to another room due to the conditions, but a workable accommodation was not provided. The situation was not handled with the level of care or responsibility that should be expected when a guest raises a health and safety concern. Due to the seriousness of the issue and lack of proper resolution, this matter has been escalated through appropriate channels. I strongly encourage anyone considering staying here to take this into account. No guest, especially one recovering from surgery, should have to deal with these conditions or this type of response.
