8/10 Good

For the money you pay they could at least heat the pool and the jacuzzi but it was a decent place
Robert, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

It’s a nice spot to stay. We had a problem with our room and they were quick to switch us and resolve our problems. Only thing is the hot tub was broken and that is the only reason I booked this hotel. One of the late night staff gave my friend attitude when he asked if they possibly had paper plates but the daytime and evening staff were awesome. I didn’t catch his name but a younger gentleman with darker hair helped us a lot and is the reason why we stayed even when our room had problems.
Anna, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Only stay of you are on a budget
anthony, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

One reason I picked this hotel was for the jacuzzi tub and that was not working and neither was the pool. A little disappointed for sure
Heather, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Jacuzzi, ice machine, clogged sink. No mention that amenities were not going to be availible. Will not stay there again
James, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Clean & good for the price :)
Jewell, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Right off the bat the guy who checked me in was really dismissive. Seemed annoyed I was checking in and gave no details about my room location. When I got to my room it was the farthest room away in the highest floor even though the entire hotel seemed almost completely vacant. I booked cuz there was a hot rub but went to find out it isn’t working. There is coffee in the closet but no coffee maker. And there are blood-like stains on the wall.
Patrick, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Dirty!
Sonya, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The Lamplighter is a very nice older motel with some architectural character. We enjoyed our stay. The usual amenities are provided
Alicia, 1-night trip

Great location!
Tami, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Simple and well located little hotel. Great price, definitely recommend.

4/10 Poor

It was filthy room had gum stuck in the carpet, black and red stains everywhere, hair all over the bathroom, flies and knats were noticed in the room upon walking through the door the first time, door card reader died after opening the door initially. no amenities, pool and spa wasnt clean had a fair mount of bugs leaves and visible dirt. Spa was cold and out of order. Its asham because it seems like it could be a nice place. It has potential to be a decent hotel, and I can only speak on the one room we stayed in as well as the other flaws we experienced.
Cameron, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Broken toilet
Sangeeta, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The desk clerk/manager was surl and confrontational. There was mold in thle bathtub, cobewebs on a wall ans a hole in the wall. Carpet was dirty and the hair dryer was broken.
Jim, 5-night trip

6/10 Okay

When I stayed, the jacuzzi was not in service and the pool water was very cold.
