Thank you Los Gatos Lodge ! 🙏

We have been blessed to stay at the property several times a year for the past 20 years as our family lives in the area. Always a welcoming staff, decent rooms and if a problem the staff corrects it. Safe parking, beautiful grounds and a buffet breakfast. All good. Great place for families.

Room is fine -- but 2 things: - Garbage (dumpster) pick-up VERY early and loud -- on two consecutive days. Management has got to deal with the waste company on this issue. - Pool closed -- a main reason for booking. Not OK in August, people.

Not fancy but priced right

This place is a bit old and funky but so are we and we loved the gardens and quiet surroundings. It is reasonably priced and the hot breakfast was yummy. We will book again when we are in the area

Since the lodge is on ground level you hear a lot of outside foot traffic and cars. We heard drunk people during night and a car alarm also woke us up. Rooms are sub-par and worn down and decently clean but carpets felt damp and gross. Water pressure was excellent and breakfast was ok.

A surprise oasis

We enjoyed our stay. The grounds are lush green and well kept. It’s an old hotel and some upgrades are needed but it doesn’t distract from the good service and comfort. Great breakfast with scrambled eggs and sausages. Even though the pool isn’t heated, it was clean and we enjoyed the swim both days. Our grandkids enjoyed it especially because it’s been very hot.

My room smelled like mold and had spiders! The carpets were not vacuumed and the wallpaper was peeling off. I called front desk and was given another room. This next room was a bit more decent upon entering until i noticed the bathroom floor was infested with ants. The overall building was old and obviously not maintained. Only positive is the breakfast thats included.

Just ok. Not for kids.

We stayed one night. It's an old place and while charming, needs better updates. The bed was so comfortable! The breakfast was delicious! Our room has evidence of the door being kicked in before, the trim around the door was damaged and drafty. The shower has little pressure and the head was up so high and immovable, my children couldn't be washed in the shower. The balcony wood is wobbly when walked on it and made me nervous to fall through. While everything seemed very clean, I thought there was hair on the shower floor and upon closer inspection , it was cracks in the paint or coating on the floor. Noisy. People were partying all night, jumping around on the porch. We could hear the neighbors throwing up the next morning through the bathroom wall. We didn't use the wifi but the TV options were great with no lag or buffer. We were on the second floor, no elevator. I would advise the staff not to book people with toddlers on the second floor (apologies to our downstairs neighbors, my 2 year old thinks he's a T-Rex)
