Nice clean and remodeled place to stay close to Lassen.
Don’t let the building scare you, it’s a work in progress, rooms were nice and freshly remodeled, decent bathroom, they are working on the dinning area / bar to be ready in future- decent place, kind of expensive for what it is, but so is the area…
Easy access, owner’s responded immediately to any questions. Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was clean, roomy and well lit. Room was nicely decorated and spacious, even had a large walk in closet with plenty of room to store our suitcases. Owners are super nice people!
Real nice big room, and a giant bathroom.
Conveniently located near Lassen Volcanic National Park., and lake Almanor..
Your base camp for all kind of outdoor activities.
So this seems to be a work in progress. It's an old "country strip mall" that is getting turned into a resort? Just a few rooms, that look like new. But the road noise is loud and the walls are thin. Plus the shower curtain doesn't go to the floor in the big stone shower, so it just sprays all over the floor. The grounds look dilapidated besides the rooms. Location near Lassen was key.
