When we entered the building it reeked of old cigarette and more recent pot smoke. There is no front desk. You don't find that out until you arrive. Then you have to drive around the corner 3 buildings away to find the desk in a community center...odd. The room was clean and looked nice. The beds were terribly hard. I need a softer mattress so I didn't sleep at all. My husband slept OK but we were very tired. There is no fridge, microwave, coffee maker, dressers, coat racks or hooks, and only one tiny wastebasket in the bathroom. There were 2 very old, shaky mismatched kitchen chairs. The price was quite low. I think it could have been lower. You get what you pay for. In this case you don't get much at all.

Check in was confusing. Maybe a better sign outside that said "the Lodge" instead of something about a pelican.... Then there was a rude guy pressuring about buying time share stuff which we were not interested in.
