Parkin is very secure, and our room is very quiet on the backside of the building. They also let us check in early. Very nice owners, and the location is very good for access to Sausalito.

Some parts of the room needed deeper cleaning, there was mold around our fridge but the rest of the room was okay. We’re only staying for a night and it does the job, the location is great and only 15 minutes away from the golden gate bridge.

This is very very basic side-of-the-road motel, not quite as nice as the reviews made it sound. Pro: They accommodated a very late check-in for us when we arrived town. The bed was very comfortable. Towels were nice. Parking was easy and free. Con: The room was clean-ish but some dirty areas (lamps were dusty, sink was slow to drain, etc). The room was very tiny and very basic. We were not given enough towels or pillows so had to request more, which they did bring but seemed surprised we'd ask. It was a good location for our hiking trip but we would not stay again, we'd pay a bit more for something else nearby.
