Jake J.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Room looks nothing like the photos and is incredibly dated, smells awful, has no AC. Despite the industry standard being an 11:00am check-out they refuse to offer a checkout later then 10:00am. The customer service staff was very rude and inhospitable. I've heard horror stories about Vacasa managed proprieties before. This is my first time staying in one and I can say without doubt this will be my last. Bed was incredibly uncomfortable and the walls are paper thin.

Lamplighter Inn

The room is clean and quiet, but getting in was a challenge. The lock on the door didn't work with the code that was given and there's nobody there to assist so I had to call an 800#. I wouldn't stay there again.

Great,clean room, comfortable bed,at a fantastic price.

This is our second time at the lamplighter Inn, and we love it there. We don’t even look anywhere else. The rooms are decorated so nicely, the beds are comfortable. It’s quiet there. It would be nice to have a few more coffee pods for our stay. But there is a really great drive up coffee place 30 second drive from the motel.
