Lamplighter Motel is a nice stay. It has the basics required and they let you know at check in that they won't be cleaning your room during your stay. This was fine for us. Very clean, comfortable beds, basic bathroom and our room even had a small refrigerator. Room also has cable tv and the shower was great. The check in was easy and the lady at the desk was very nice. The price was great so if you're looking for high end or extra amenities stay somewhere else and pay for that. This was perfect for our two night stay and we would stay again. Very happy with our stay at Lamplighter.

I just wish the housekeeping would have come in and gave me fresh towels and sheets at least once. I stayed 5 nights, 5 days and to ask for a blanket was like I was bothering. And no curtains in the bathroom!

Quite and Clean - No Frills

The morning we were to start our trip, we had an emergency delay. We arrived at the hotel about 5 hours later than we had expected. They called us to reconfirm our stay. They were very pleasant and helpful.

Fine for an overnight. No fan in the bathroom. No toilet paper holder. Shower had great pressure, but tub was at least 4-6 inches higher than normal. Only 1 hand towel and 1 bath towel per person.
