Our room was clean and had everything we needed. The restaurant was excellent, we ate breakfast and dinner there both days. Would stay again.

8/10 Very good

The room was OK….you had to live out of your suitcase, no place to put clothes or even hang them. No towel bars to hang your wet towels. The restaurant was across the street. It was very nice, food was good but expensive. Portions were very large. Even sharing a meal was a lot of food. Staff was very friendly.

This was a GREAT option for Lassen Volcanic National Park. The staff was VERY friendly and helpful. The rooms were cozy with a nice mini-fridge and microwave. The restaurant across the street (same company) was excellent with some great sunset views from the large windows. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.
