In the woods but right off the freeway. Breakfast at the room was offered but carb based. Would have liked a protein option, even if it was just hard boiled eggs.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Room smelled and looked clean but needed a little more attention to the corners/edges of the room near the bed (dust, dead fly). Breakfast hash was really yummy, meat quiche was very salty, beverages were good, mini blueberry muffins were ok, but the French toast muffins were dry and bland. The room smelled clean and pleasant! The room itself was very inviting! I would have really appreciated access to an ice machine instead of having to request the ice from staff.

This place is a great little gem. It's convenient to the freeway and the rooms are clean and cozy. It sits alone in the trees above the lake. The dinner food (Indian) was great and the breakfast (delivered to your room) surprisingly good for a lower priced hotel. The only downside is the train and traffic sounds, but since the rooms are so well insulated you barely hear them from in the room.

The unit is so beautiful, spacious, and spotlessly clean; the little kitchenette is a plus; and a jet tub is simply amazing; the surroundings are so serene and calm; wake up in the forest with door delivered breakfast every morning made us feel so pampered; just sitting on the porch enjoying morning tea and breakfast is already like a vacation. We will definitely come back here when we’re in the Redding area.

Super Clean & Comfy!

It's a beautiful location--kind of like camping--but with nice amenities. Spotlessly clean...and we found it quite quiet. Others commented on the freeway & train noise, but we didn't have anything bother us. It's nice that they bring breakfast to the room... especially because it was pouring down rain that morning! And we enjoyed the big tub, as well! They have great wifi, too! We will stay again!
