Cute and comfortable
The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful. If it were summer, we’d definitely want to spend time enjoying the outside. The room had lots of character and reflected the area. There wasn’t much privacy for the bathroom because of a large gap around the door and a strobe light feature on the lamp but was a really comfortable room otherwise.

Athens, Ohio Football Trip
Stayed at the lodge Thanksgiving evening, to attend the Ohio University and Ball State football game the next day. The location was easy to find, and I believe we were the only guests that night as it was very quiet. The roll out bed from the couch was rough, but was expected. The in room coffee maker didn’t work, due to a missing part but coffee was available the next morning as apart of the continental breakfast. My kids enjoyed the strawberry waffles and other quick breakfast items. Overall for the location, and the fact that it was Thanksgiving evening I enjoyed the stay and found the area and small town feel a nice change of pace from chain hotels and busy metropolitan areas I’ve stayed at in the past.

Do not book here, my car was broken into and things were stolen out of it. The hotel said it’s common for druggies/ homeless to steal around the vicinity and in the parking lots. When I first arrived I was given a room that wasn’t clean. On the second try I was give. A room that was clean.

The hotel was nice. However the bed was extremely soft/weak. Also breakfast was limited. On the second morning there were no plates, plasticware or syrup available for the waffles. Went to front desk but no one was around.

I felt there could have been another seating option in the room. There was an easy chair and the bed and that was it. When there are 2 people staying in this sized room, perhaps a desk chair would be convenient. Otherwise the room was great!

We had a great stay minus the breakfast. It offered waffles but no knives, forks, or napkins. Limited selection available. Everything else was nice.

I loved the room and the location was easy to find. Everything about the room was great except the mattresses. They were not firm enough for me. I sunk into them too easily and couldn't easily switch from side to side. Outside of that the staff was friendly and i could get in and out of the location easily.

Trip for the fall colors
I enjoyed my stay at the lodge very much. The room was clean and comfortable. The lodge is not far from Hocking Hills, where I spent most of my time. I do wish the continental breakfast had more options, it’s very simple. Think cold cereal, granola bars and a waffle maker. Fresh fruit would have been nice. I would stay here again if I’m in the area
