The staff in the front desk was trying to charge me extra since I only put 2 person checking in but we are actually 3 adults and 2 kids. I booked room with 2 queen beds and it says can sleep 4 adult. She is even claiming I paid way less on what I supposed to. She didn't even know how much I paid for the room. We were tired and had a hard time looking for the place since there is no internet connect even mobile signal to call Lake View Lodge. That old lady ruined our stay.

My rating is to get one's attention. The room was fine. However, I was an 'environmental fee' per night which was not disclosed at time of booking which is against California law SB478 requiring full disclosure.
