Stay here!
Nice place to stay. Warmly greeted. Most helpful staff.
Very friendly and helpful staff. The walls are relatively thin so you can definitely hear what’s going on in the next room, but it wasn’t a problem for us. The pool area is quite lovely sunny clean and relaxing. You can’t beat the location either.
Front desk clerk was wonderful, he was friendly and helpful. He recommended places to eat. Keep in mind most are closed during the week. We got coffee and breakfast at Bohemian Market, had lunch at Howard Station Cafe. We had a pizza and salad at Union Hotel. We wanted to try Negris and Hazel but both were too busy on a Sunday.
Beds were soft and comfortable. The pool was too cold to use but it was a nice place to sit.
If you’re adventurous I’d recommend the zipline course two miles away.
I couldn’t stop thinking I was being discriminated at the time of check in. I had already asked for an early check in, the man asked me to come back later since the room was being cleaned. Got back and two other couples walked in at the same time, the man said “2 rooms available” and gave it to them when I had been there before they did. He had the audacity to tell me “checking time is at 3 pm and smile at the other guest”. This was plain wrong. I don’t what to mention the race of the other guest, but I’m sure you’d have a pretty good idea .

Older place, but clean. The town had few options when it came to food, clerk said most places are closed on Monday and Tuesday. Slept good, bed was comfortable.
Everything was great except the outdated bed which was very uncomfortable.

Pleasant check in
First room was pretty cramped. Small tv in adjacent nook. Could not watch tv from bed. Asked for a different room and was graciously reassigned to a different room
Good value for the price. Enjoyed Thursday Night market across the way.
The staff was very friendly and upgraded us to one of the newly refinished rooms. We have stayed here multiple times and always enjoyed it. Clean, quiet, and beds were comfortable.

Great place!!! Friendly staff. Clean updated room. Pleased with the upgrade!!!
The Lodge itself was very nice, clean, comfortable and centrally located in town. My wife and i stayed from Sunday for 4 nights on our first night all restaurants and the only bar in town were open and that was the last time we could use the bar as it was closed until Friday. The towns restaurants weren't much better with only one open each evening with none open on Tuesday evening. I would recommend you look at the town web site for days and times eateries are open. Occedental-ca.org to help fine places to eat.
