Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The service at the restaurant was terrible. We waited 20 min for someone to even take our drink order. It was painfully obvious that there were local regulars in the restaurant and tbe staff blatantly prioritized them over other guests. It took an hour from the time we sat down until our food finally came out and it was not up to expectations. They listed fresh fish on their menue and it was clearly processed frozen fish. For breakfast they did serve a made fresh omelet however there was only one cheif for the enitre service. We waited in line for 40 min before we could ordrer. It was very good but the wait was ridiculous! The room we had was dingy and smelled of mildew. The carpet was filthy and stained. The bathroom was terrible, the tub was dirty and the kleenex box mounted on the wall was metal and covered in rust. We were on the first floor, each roon had a small patio however the curtains they had provided gave little to no privacy. At night with the lights on in the room, you could practically see through them. For the pice they charge for a nights stay it was horrible! We would not recommend!!

Great stay, kind staff, good value
We really enjoyed our stay. Very dated, bare-bones lodging but the staff was friendly. Free breakfast included a made-to-order omelette station. The restaurant was lively on Friday and the food was fresh and cocktails nicely made. It was an older, chill crowd overall that was staying there during our visit.

Location-Yes! Condition-No!
The location of this hotel is great…very close to downtown. But there is no water views except from the front steps. Also, the hotel and rooms need a buff job. The beds were just ok, the walls were very thin so could hear conversations next door and footsteps upstairs, the bathroom was crummy as the tub is worn and needs replacing and there was hair in the tub when we arrived, and the lighting is horrible as not enough lamps so very dark. Overall, it needs updating and a good cleaning.

The Lodge is AMAZING
This place is simply amazing. It's as old school as it's gonna get. No it's not the Ritz Carlton. It's a classic. Other reviews complained about cleanliness. Our room was immaculately clean. Staff was awesome, Willie and Shelly at the bar, fantastic. This place is a winner. A definite do again!!

My partner got Covid the day we were supposed to stay, being respectful humans we opted to stay home and quarantine and they refused to refund the cost of our reservation. A little customer service would go a long way.
