Lone Oak Lodge

Lone Oak Lodge

8/10 Good
"Clean room, convenient parking, good location, comfortable beds and fresh, clean bedding. Oddly the 2-bedroom "cottage" had no wall decorations, no closets (one bedroom had a clothes-hanging rod and shelf), no armchairs or comfortable seating (just one stiff, inexpensive "desk chair" and two Goodwill-quality basic kitchen-table chairs). Full kitchen contained a full-size fridge, decent microwave, nice toaster, and all the necessary plates, cups, utensils, and cookware, along with a roll of paper towels and dish-soap, but just a tiny low-quality coffee-maker with inadequate quantity of coffee pods (2 caffeinated packs), and, in both rooms, 2 superfluous mini-fridges and 2 additional microwave ovens. No one cleaned the room while we were out on all 3 days, had to go to front office to request more coffee packs. The cottage's back door opened to a narrow alleyway full of weeds, cigarette butts, and rat traps."
