Nice hotel located near downtown and the beach.

The hotel was located within walking distance of the monarch sanctuary and the beach. The gentleman that greeted us at the counter was friendly and professional. The room was clean and spacious. My only complaint is we were awaken by what seemed like banging on pipes and maybe some repairs that were taking place in a nearby room.

Quiet and private hotel

We enjoyed our stay here even though it seemed a tad bit dated. It was clean, private, and quiet. We were able to get a good night’s sleep. The young woman at the front desk was knowledgeable and courteous.

Stayed for one night at the wonderful Olympia Lodge. Amenities were ok just for a night and for the price, however I probably wouldn’t book again. Recommend bringing your own pillows and towels. Breakfast was a stale croissant and a baby bell cheese.

Great Value with a Minor Scent Issue

The hotel offers excellent value for the price, with clean and comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and convenient amenities. However, there was a strong cleaner scent in the room upon arrival, which may bother those sensitive to strong smells. Despite this, everything else was great, making it a solid choice for a budget-friendly stay.

I don’t usually write reviews, but I feel compelled to share the absolutely appalling experience my wife and I had during our stay at this hotel. Where do I even begin? The rooms are shockingly outdated, with no heating or cooling system to provide even basic comfort. It was freezing at night, and the lack of climate control made it nearly impossible to rest. Breakfast, which was advertised as “included,” consisted of a single cookie, a toffee, and a piece of cheese—hardly a meal, let alone something worth mentioning as a feature. The service? Nonexistent. After 6 PM, the staff disappears, leaving guests completely stranded. If you encounter any issues after that time, don’t bother trying to get help—you’ll just be wasting your energy. To add to the misery, there’s no parking nearby. You’ll likely have to park far from the hotel and haul your luggage by yourself. If your room happens to be on the second floor, prepare for a grueling climb up the stairs, as there’s no elevator. And once you finally reach your room, you’re greeted by an icy, uncomfortable space that feels more like a punishment than accommodation. I would strongly advise anyone considering this hotel to think twice and save their money. The lack of refunds only adds insult to injury. To make matters worse, I’d recommend having excellent health insurance if you dare to stay here—you’re bound to get sick from the cold, substandard conditions. In conclusion, this was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had

This property was just right for what we needed. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the room or on the property itself. We were doing a quick family visit in the area. We got in very late, there was no staff in the office but we had planned for that. They made getting checked in and our room key retrieval super easy. We didn’t see the heater the first night so it was chilly but our own fault haha. There was an extra blanket in the room so we made it work. The bathroom had a shower/tub combo which was perfect for traveling with a toddler. The property is cute and quiet with a nice balcony and a little court yard. It would have been amazing if there was a little firepit down there, but again we weren’t spending much time at the hotel besides sleeping. If you want fancy with a lot of amenities, this isn’t it. With the price it is exactly what is needed, including coffee pot in the room). I will definitely keep it in our list of places for a quick trip.
