The room and property was great. But the TV didn't work and the staff was very unhelpful. Let me do my laundry and get all of my clothes washed and wet and then told me the dryer was broken, after making me pay $4 to use the dryer. Then told me, oh well when I was stuck with wet clothes. Finally told my husband he could use their dryer. Just terrible! Also said she would have someone do something about the TV and then never did.

I couldn't connect to the Internet, the room was dirty and the noise was not heated, so I moved the room 3 times. Also, it was very inconvenient because the TV didn't work.

Liked: Staff & service
Staff is friendly and hospitable and I slept very well. However, the room could use some improvements. For instance, there was no smoke alarm and wires were hanging from the ceiling. The faucet to the sink was very loose and the metal plate below the tub faucet wasn't secure. Oh and the refrigerator didn't seem to work either. As it is, the bed was comfy and this motel has an excellent location. Would consider staying here again.

When we booked, website said breakfast is provided. There was no breakfast on site. When asked, desk staff said that breakfast is not provided. Misleading advertising! Coffee station in room is not maintained and we have to keep on requesting desk staff for coffee and cream etc.

I wish I didn’t choose this lodge. We planned a family trip to Muir Woods and picked this lodge for my stay due to the good reviews. We need an extra bedding and my kids asked the office. They came back with nothing and here is the words from the owner, we have blankets but it’s not included in the package so we won’t offer it. On the day when I checked out, there was a logistics truck blocking the narrow driveway. I waited for 20 minutes and asked the driver to move. He refused. Then I ask help from the owner. He let the driver complete what he was doing and told me, the driver will move, if you are not okay with it, go call police. Yes I can’t do anything because police don’t have resources to handle this. And because of this I was late for my next appointment.

Horrible stay

The staff was not very friendly. The front door had spiderwebs on it and it looked like it had not been clean. We asked for extra bedding, and we were given bedding with a mildew smell. The comforter in the room had stains on it. The shower had mold on the ceiling, the walls and the shower curtain. There was also a spider in the bathroom window. We will not stay here again.

It is a place to rest your head. No services for the hotel. The room was very clean and tidy. But outside was not. Around back the garbage was overflowing and it’s just gross. The walk way needs to be power washed. The parking is limited and one way. The stairs are inconvenient to get to the rooms and carry up the luggage. It rained for the whole week so the walk way was slick and full of puddles. The immediate area looks a little rough. The outside could use some major TLC. .
