Rooms hadn't been vacuumed and weren't clean. Breakfast options are a joke. The picture is misleading.

Sorry, you did not like our breakfast options. Thank you for pointing out that we need new pictures of our lobby we did a huge remodel of it and still haven't updated the pictures.

Some of the rooms are quite nice. The one they put us in this time looked like the door had been kicked in and that the room needed painting to cover the big stain on the wall and other problems.

The people at the front desk were very nice and polite. The room was clean and up to standards for the price I paid.

First morning discovered that there was no soap or shampoo in the dispensers. Second day housekeeping failed to clean room and empty trash. Not a grand experience!

I am sorry that you had hassles during your stay. We have had some new housekeepers who are in training and we take full responsibility for their actions. Your review is important to us and will use this to be a training exercise for our new staff. Hope that you do not have such issues during your next stay.

I'm old enough to remember when such properties were the latest thing, brand new motels or just several years old. The Guest Lodge keeps up with things after renovation & redecoration. I like that the rooms are a new cosy, but with a familiar layout & a handy frig/microwave. The beds are the best I've found in decades of US & international business travel, including 4+ star luxury hotels --- cloud-like, but very supportive of my car-wrecked back & with plenty pillows. The staff is wonderful --- kind, thoughtful, helpful & caring. I so appreciate their working with my needs when I come up to be "shot in the back" --- by my pain doctor. I always hope to see Wendy at the desk; she's a joy. The beds are the best I've slept on in decades of US & inavel

Sorry that you did not have a stay that is consistent with our lodge. Thank you for the feedback, we will look into what led the stay to be less than satisfactory.

Nicely landscaped, friendly staff, very, very clean. Liked the wall container with liquid soap at the sink. And same style container in shower with shampoo, conditioner and body wash, all dispensed at the touch of a button. So convenient. Better than those small samples most hotels use. Anyway, very nice pool with redwood lounge chairs and overhead sun shades. Also, nice conversation areas outside pool with 2 outdoor sofas and umbrellas on 2 sides of pool. Locally owned and operated and considerable thought to this. Older styled rooms well maintained.
