The owner of the hotel checked me in and she was absolutely wonderful. I asked that I could have one of the quietest rooms. Because I was a light sleeper. And she tried to accommodate me the best she could. The room was clean and neat and it was quiet. Nice day and I would definitely return thank you

Hello Kevin, Thank you for sharing your experience on your most recent stay. We are delighted to hear that the room accommodations were to your liking. As California is recovering from a severe drought the lake is of course not in our control. However, its conditions have vastly improved within the past three years. We would be happy to welcome you and your party here again in the near future. Thank you.

Casual In Clearlake
Traveling for family sitch. Place was half the price of next door. Clean and comfy bed, large room. Gentleman at the desk could not have been nicer. He called me when I left my rental car keys on the ground and they collected them for me. Shower inoperable but bath was wonderful. TV remote was super old and wonky to me and there was a godawful buzz from the minifridge. All in all, met my needs which were to be clean and safe. It’s no Taj but the price is right and again, it’s clean and safe. I did not mention to staff that my shower didn’t work because I’m confident they would have moved me and I didn’t have the energy. This trip was not for pleasure unfortunately, but the staff here was as kind and courteous and helpful as the fanciest five star million dollar outfit. BEAUTIFUL location.

Would Choose Elsewhere in the Future
Checking in was through an outside window. Weather at the time was cold and not an ideal setup. General appearance of grounds and surrounding properties, makes one question general safety. Free continental breakfast advertised but not available due to COVID. Our room was fairly free if strong odors. The other portion of our party was not so lucky. Non-smoking room had strong odor of marijuana. It appeared that several rooms were occupied by long term residents. The bed was fairly comfortable, however sleep was tough since there didn’t appear to be any insulation or sound proofing between the walls or 1st/2nd floors. I’d rate the quietness of this stay a 2 out of 10. Staff seemed helpful, courteous, and friendly.
