This is an old-fashioned layout for a motel with one's car right outside the door. Roomy and spacious, with a great shower stall, water pressure and amenities.

I really enjoy staying here when I come to the area for school. The staff is friendly and personable, unlike a lot of places. And it has nice touches- like real glasses for drinking instead of cheap plastic ones. The town of Occidental is tranquilly situated among redwoods.

We enjoyed our stay in the town of Occidental and the Lodge was a throw back to earlier times in that hippie town. We loved it.

The carpet did look like it was a pet friendly room as there were possible prior stains on the carpet. Bathroom was clean and tidy. Enjoyed the fridge. Overall very nice aesthetic and good pricing.

Needs a few upgrades. Coffee pot does not match the coffee pod sizes. Overall service was good. Area is a little depressed, so not much variety in food choices.

Lovely place to stay

Great place to stay. Clean and tidy and the bed was very comfortable. Staff at reception were very helpful and informative. Howard Station is directly across the road and do a fantastic breakfast. Overall, Occidental is a lovely little village, off the beaten track.

It is a basic, clean, no frills motel, which is what I would expect for about $100 a night. The TV got a lot of channels and had an easy to use remote! The bed was pretty comfortable, but definitely bring your own pillows. It had a nice pool, though it was too cool to swim, but the furnishings around the pool were comfortable to sit and lay on. The biggest downside for me was how noisy it was being on a bottom floor, because I could hear the people above me walking back-and-forth and back back-and-forth nonstop. Definitely bring earplugs! It had a coffee maker, microwave, and mini fridge. There was a farmers market going on across the street and there is a market there to buy food. It’s surrounded by a hillside with nice trees. The soda machine doesn’t work, but you purchase water and a few sodas inside the office for $2 each. If I were to stay again, I would definitely ask for a second floor room in the back by the swimming pool, because it looks like a newer wing. Although I’m sure if the weather were hot, that room would be noisy because of kids in the pool. So maybe a second floor room somewhere in the middle of the property.

Small town, good rates. Hotel is modern, room was very clean. Restaurants in town all seem to close by 7. Would we stay again? Absolutely, but we would have something in our cooler for dinner!

I came here for a quiet vacay on my own. The room was quaint and clean, the staff were helpful and kind. I will most definitely be coming back again. It’s the perfect place to chill out and enjoy the coast. There is an awesome spa is just down the street and the room rate was the most affordable in the area. Don’t miss out on this place!

Adorable motel with super friendly staff

Very charming spot in an equally charming little town. Don't plan on sleeping in if you're on the first floor- housekeeping starts around 7 AM and it's impossible not to be woken up by it.
