Terrible stay avoid this place
Unfortunately this bed and breakast has gone down hill in the last 6 years. We stayed in 2019 and loved it and now the breakfast is gone (they claim Marin county wont allow it even though covid era mandates are over for a long time now) and the room was terrible (yellow stained curtains and no AC)
Skip this place and stay at Casa Madrina (we will next time)

Peaceful and nice spot!
This was a last minute overnight getaway. It was close to everything, the staff was super welcoming and helpful.
The room was very historic feeling, but nicely maintained. I only wish I had a room with a view! It would be nice to have a place to purchase snacks, drinks, etc. But overall great.

The closeness of the hotel to downtown Sausalito was great for catching a ferry over to San Francisco for the day. Room was clean, great bay view, with a small porch included. Thank you for a wonderful stay on our anniversary.

We stayed in the Cedar Room. Nice setup. Zachariah was very informative about the best places to eat. Great location, so didn’t have to drive around. Just walk. Only problem was the parking. Tight garage had a water pipe and I backed in and hit a water pipe and smashed the car taillight.

Summer Ladies Weekend
The Gables Inn is a really cool, clean and welcoming place. Our room was very spacious with a side door to the patio where you can see the bay while drinking your morning coffee. My rooms ac unit was not working and it was pretty warm throughout the day at 74 degrees inside the room, making it difficult to get ready for the night activities. The staff were friendly and provided great recommendations to grab fresh croissants and coffee. Overall I would give this stay a 8/10.

Adorable hotel
This cute hotel feels cozy and has great views of Alcatraz and SF. Cute little balconies to sit and have a drink on. No breakfast or food on site, but walkable to everything. Our room was super roomy. No A/C, but we slept with windows open and had a nice breeze through the room. It has a bit of an older feel to it, but we found that super charming. Would come back!

Nice, clean and centrally located.
Some area if the outside looks like it could use some fresh updating. Looks dingy and tired.

Overall enjoyed staying at Gables. The old-style tub was a bit challenging to get in and out of, and a little un-even footing taking a shower. A step to get in and out of might be good

We didn’t know this is a house changed into a hotel. The room is right behind the check-in counter and right in front of another room. There’s no privacy. We can literally see and hear other residents. The AC doesn’t work too. The room is spacey. If you are on the road and need a place to crash it’s fine, but we are bay area locals and were looking for a get away, at this condition, we’d rather cancel and go home.
