Good Vibes

Super clean and comfortable. My non-smoking room was not only free of any smoke odors, but it also had no coverup disinfectant smells--which I hate. The room was dated in many ways, but proudly so: I nice flashback to days gone by, and very well maintained. The flat-screen TV, microwave and refrigerator with a separate freezer door were all great modern additions. I checked in and out without ever seeing the staff, but I had a pleasant phone call with the manager who let me in remotely. Nice location and very quiet.

Not the worst

We stayed in Room 4. There was zero water pressure and no hot water. My wife and I took freezing cold showers. there's a wall heater in the Central room, but that does not go into the kitchen area are the bathroom? So both of those rooms are freezing cold, it's was a memorable adventure. It is not bad to stop and spend the night and leave. The outside is amazing and the views are incredible, but inside the room wear shoes because the tac strips under the carpet, we'll cut your feet. Our coffee pot was nasty dirty and unusable. My wife and I stay at roadside hotels frequently and this one needs a little help. The owner does it all by herself so i am sure she does the best she can.

sleeping with our neighbors

Stayed a night at the lakeview motel a few days ago, while it is not a bad place to stay when passing through, i can’t recommend for longer than a night or two. the beginning of our experience was great, a room to ourselves/cozy overall, we were rudely awoken by our neighbors with walls so thin you’d think they were in the same room. around 1am, we could hear their entire conversation as they'd slam the microwave door reheating food we could smell in our room through the crack of the door. if you’re lucky enough to have quiet neighbors, not a bad place, if you’re even more lucky, you’d stay somewhere with thicker walls. the lake isabella area is charming and wouldn’t mind giving it another chance in the future.

Comfortable with little sleep

It’s definitely an older motel, but it’s still a comfortable stay and a nice size room. It was pretty tidy, and if you don’t mind older amenities, then this is an affordable good stay. The door locks are also updated, making me feel better traveling as a solo lady. The only issue I had was with how thin the walls are. I could hear the frequent opening and closing of my neighbors’ door, as if it was my own door. And in the morning, I could clearly hear the people next to me discussing breakfast, as if they were in the room. It was a rough night with little sleep. I will likely stay here again, but I’m definitely bringing ear plugs
