Ok basic room for the low price. AC was not on when we arrived so it was over 100 degrees at 8:00 and it was a small AC unit so it was miserable for first few hrs and hard to fall asleep for the family. Bed was comfortable after AC kicked in and bathroom was clean. Rooms need updating but cool retro motel! Safe place and appreciate they allow dogs.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lamp liter inn. It takes me back to a time when staying at a fine hotel was an experience you had with an outdoor courtyard and pool view. Totally 60s vibe. Our room was spacious and super clean and we had a great night sleep. The mattress felt new and the bedding was crisp clean and white. Same with the bath towels. I will definitely stay there again.

While the service and the exterior of the property was very nice, the room condition was terrible. The carpet was filthy the bath tub finish was very terrible as well as the sink area. While clean…this room 246 is in terrible repair. Towels and linens were clean.
