I enjoyed my stay at Villa Inn. I honestly didn’t have stellar expectations as I was only staying for the weekend. But I was positively surprised to see how comfortable my stay was. I slept well, I felt safe, and the environment was quiet and peaceful. Definitely recommend a stay at Villa Inn. It’s cozy, quiet, and nice.

Surprisingly Quiet on a Busy Street

Room was surprisingly quiet for being located between busy roads. Continental breakfast was fairly basic but nicely laid out. Excellent staff, very nice & prompt. Bed frame made a bit of noise every time you got up & down, but otherwise very clean & comfortable enough for us. Would stay here again

Great weekend

Stayed here for a family wedding and found the restaurant on the facility to be one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve ever eaten at Marcello and his staff were friendly. The place is cute and quaint and well taken care. Definitely the best value in the Bay Area and Marin County.
