Knee challenge
Very dated room, dark even with lights on. Comfortable bed and pillows, but with cheap linens. Toilet unusually low to the ground, 15", definitely challenging for senior citizen with bad knees. Heat pump was very effective, but noisy right next to the bed.

Lovely, cozy lodge in a magic spot. Very good, helpful staff. Great restaurant on the grounds. The electric outlets are loose, need replacing. USB outlets would be helpful. Also, it was very difficult to turn on the shower water.

I missed having a shelf of some sort in the shower to place soap and shampoo, as well as missed a place to hang a wash cloth. As a woman I found the sink in bathroom high and far away, long reach as was toilet paper holder.

2/10 Poor

So disappointed. Our room was not only dirty(carpet was disgusting) but it was tiny with cheap old furniture. The worst part however, was the bed that made loud creaking noises every time you turned over in bed. Don’t waste your money. Drive the 10 minutes down 395 to the June Lake area with better rooms.

Black mold
There was black mold on the ceiling of the shower. Unfortunately it wasn’t visible until I noticed it when I got ready to take a shower next morning.

Nice staff, good room. Beautiful gardens. Food at the Cafe was good. Nice to be so close to the center of town. The vessel sinks were so high I had trouble using them. The laundry was difficult to find.

4/10 Fair

Both sinks were elevated to chest height and were almost impossible to use. The room fan unit was located at the back of the room rather than in the front (the side closest to the highway) so road noise all night long kept me awake.

The property was convenient to the locations we wished to visit and easy to find. Our room was under a stairway, so it was a bit noisy.

For the price tag, I was expecting a better maintained motel/hotel. The ice machine broke when I was leaving in the morning. The vanities — wash basins and toilet — appear to be from the 60s that are installed very low.
