Never again at this property! Filthy & disgusting!
Absolutely filthy property. Room was full of mold and cigarette smell. The walls were scratched and paint was chipping. Beyond dated. Bathroom paint peeling off walls. Spiders and moths alive and dead in the room. I cannot believe this property hasn’t been shut down for health reasons. And not enough parking so you’re walking all over property to get to your room. Unbelievable.

The property was beautiful on the outside. However, the room was very dated and dingy inside. The lights in the room with the bathroom vanity were all not working. You had to turn on the lights in the water closet and room to bring some light in. The tv signal wasn’t good either. The employees were so so nice though.

Lovely location in a very small town
A little dated, but nice. The plywood repair on the second floor walkway, however, was not exactly inspiring. Pool is fine, but the weather was a little chilly to really enjoy it. Love, the fact that they allow pets. Bed was comfortable, but the pillows were kind of lumpy. Not great water pressure on a second floor room shower. Multiple restaurants and stores for basics are only steps away.

The Lodge is set in a beautiful redwood area. It was quiet and everything was within walking distance. The Lodge itself is a bit outdated, but very clean, and the staff was very helpful.

Very family friendly amenities, and the (unheated) pool was enjoyed by the aquaphiles in our group. Location is central to Russian River and Sonoma Coast. Scenery is breathtaking, and people welcoming.

This is a cool little motel tucked away in the forest. Nothing fancy, but clean, and decent, and comfy bed. It even has a pool, but it really was way too cold to use it. The morning there was magical: The morning mists washed over the hotel in waves, a flock of little CA quails burbling and peeping made their way through the parking lot, and the caws, squawks, and hoots of birds and animals rolled down from the tree tops. Plus there's a coffee shop just 250 feet away.

Good place to stay in Occidental-needs minor TLC
Good location and overall facility. A/C in room was noisy. Shower leaked water around base of doors when used. Hotel staff was nice and helpful. Parking lot fills up on weekends.

An economical place to stay - walls are thin. Not a good idea on Wednesdays, as it seems the town shuts down. No places open to eat - The Market offers a deli...

We had a two room suite. The size was great, it’s basically an apartment from the early 80’s. Unfortunately it’s really run down, like holes in the walls, huge cobwebs, peeling paper etc. the furniture looks cute but is crazy uncomfortable. There’s not any paper products(like a stir stick for the coffee). It was quite and spacious.

I booked for two days but I had to check out next morning due to the issues below. I checked in on Thursday on but the room was facing the street with the balcony where people were walking in front of my window. I had to close the blinds . I was not able to sleep due to the smell of bleach . I checked out 8 am as soon as they opened their office. I need Hotels.com to redound me for thd 2nd day as i dud not stay. I had no phone number to call Hotel.com to cancel.
