Good rooms mediocre amenities
The room was spacious and clean. Amenities listed breakfast and pool/hot tub. The breakfast is packaged pastries, the hot tub had 2 inches of water in it and the pool had the shade umbrellas in it. So rooms were fine but amenities were mediocre.

Good Room for a Good Price
My room at the Lamplighter Inn was clean and in good condition, and when I booked it the very best price in town. It had a pleasant staff, fridge, and a pretty view of "Mount Madonna" peak. So 5 stars for that. But I deducted a star because it didn't have a microwave (they said it had probably been stolen, but they heated up my stuff downstairs). And the hot tub, which was featured in the very first photo on the ad, and one of the reasons I chose the hotel, was out of order (they said the had just gotten it repaired, but then it broke down again). Those things will probably be fixed, I hope. A HORRIBLE loud gas-powered leafblower destroyed the peace calm of guests and neighbors in the morning. A light breakfast of coffee and cellophane-wrapped local Edna Bakery pastries was included (but no fruit or yogurt). I'd stay there again.
