Comfort meets funky
Funky in the best way possible. Great homestay to explore the Tomales Bay area. Conveniently located in town center, next to Route One Bakery and the General Store. For those with little ones, it's half a block away from a lovely playground. Kitchen has everything you need to cook a simple meal. Loved the artwork and musical instruments. Bed was very comfy.

One-of-a-kind place to stay!
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Not A Bank. Bert was very responsive, and the app/website he put together for the property was very helpful - it included directions on how to make everything in the property work, as well as information on the art on display and the surrounding area.
I loved the artwork on display in the interior, and the two of us had fun playing the piano and guitars. The stereo system also made for a fun evening.
My trip just ended a couple days ago and I've already recommended Not A Bank to several friends and family members. The next time I book an overnight trip in the area I'd gladly book this place again.
