This room also had a VERY big nice TV - much larger TV than in the other rooms! This was our first time to Crescent City and of course we wondered if the fog horn would be a problem (especially given the "warning" on the hotel website). It wasn't an issue for us - but we didn't sleep with the door to the balcony open or anything. You can definitely hear it... but it's not super loud and/or overbearing... when I think "foghorn" I usually think about the super loud blaster that they use at 49er games or something, but this wasn't that at all - not even close! The TV was a little bit of a challenge to figure out, but we figured it out eventually. I can't say that I was crazy about the bathroom layout... with the sink part being in the main room, but the upside to that is there was a LOT of counter space, much more than would have been available otherwise. After a little reflection, I realized there really wasn't a better way to lay things out. I just had to get used to it... and now, I wouldn't hesitate to get the same room again.

Would not recommend…read more Service: Checked in on a Sunday night. We were hoping to modify our reservation to check out one day early. Ryan at the front desk indicated that while he technically could modify our reservation, we'd have to go through Expedia since we booked with them - sure, not a problem. I talk to an Expedia agent who says yep, we should be able to modify the reservation. They call the Oceanview Inn, speak with Ryan, who says nope, no can do. When I went back to the lobby (still on the night of check-in) to ask Ryan what happened, he became confrontational. The staff here are unwilling to help their guests or make even minor modifications to reservations, even for services that have not and will not be rendered. Location: Convenient location close to the beach, highway, and Redwood National Park. Other than the national park there is very little to do in Crescent City. Not many good restaurant options. Room: Antiquated. Hasn't been updated in 25 years, uncomfortable bed. The upgraded room we reserved was quite large, however, the walls are thin and we could hear our neighbors all night. Also, the fog horn blows every 8 seconds. Walking to & from the room we noticed the hallways smell like strongly of urine.

Pros: Convenient location, very friendly staff, and very convenient EV charging on-site…read more Cons: The balcony floorboard is soft in at least one spot. Dangerous and scary! The room is musty and outdated, with ugly, dirty carpet. Kept getting attacked by fruit flies. Lastly, in the final hour before I had to leave, I went for a much anticipated shower. NO HOT WATER! Let it run for five minutes. Never got hot. Worked fine the day before. Didn't have time to complain about it. Had a tight schedule so left feeling dirty. That's automatic minus multiple stars. If I ever return to Crescent City, I likely wouldn't stay at this hotel again. Sorry.

No blow dryer or other standard hotel extras, so come prepared. The sliding glass door opens directly to the beach walkway, meaning anyone staying at the motel can walk right past your room. This got annoying, especially since my dog barks at every little sound. People would regularly walk by and even look into the room. While it's not the motel's fault that some guests lack basic etiquette, a divider or barrier would go a long way in giving guests a bit more privacy. Top notch hospitality!

I've stayed here twice in my entire life - and while I was too young to remember the first time, I…read moredo remember this last time! First off, how cool is it this place is made from a frickin' redwood tree!? Second, the man who checked me in was quite nice and kind - my room was next door to a room that was getting updated, and the next morning, when I was packing up the car, he checked on me to make sure the workers hadn't woken me up (they hadn't!) Third, the rooms are both funky and yet updated. By funky I mean, a vibe that only the Curly Redwood Lodge could ever have - it personally reminded me of my favorite movie that takes place in a motel - just without the creepiness - and that motel was funky! But unlike that motel, this place was also nice. The bathroom in the room I was in had been remodeled and damn, it was nice! I'd recommend anyone to stay here! I wanna stay there again! Like right now! Great wifi! Clean! No bugs! No weird smells!

review My elderly parents booked a cabin at White Rock over…read morethe phone with a host named Estee, that apparently is not associated with the resort and runs bookings privately for some of the cabins. My dad booked cabin 11. This cabin needed a lot of updating and repairs. The dishwasher did not work, the hot water only lasted for 3 minutes, the paint was missing on walls and the deck was also in bad shape. The bathroom floor was rotting away. The decor was shabby and the cabin needed a deep cleaning. Carpets were disgusting. The fridge froze our food. Many of the light fixtures were missing bulbs or the bulbs were dead. My parents and I were very disappointed in this cabin as it was over $400/night. My dad called during the stay to make complaints and the host did not call back. He made several other attempts to contact her to request at least partial refund and she never called him back. See photos.

The whole place was very dated. Not sure how they had an 8.1 rating on the hotel booking site…read more Bedspreads were faded and dingy, and they had brown blankets on the beds. Brown. Gross. Upholstered chairs in the room were worn and had holes. The toilets barely flushed, maybe because they were so old. The AC didn't work, and they do not have maintenance on site, so they gave us a loud box fan to put in the window for the night. They offered to move us for the second night, not the first because they were sold out. By the time the 2nd evening came, I was over it and opted to book a nicer hotel up the road. They then refused to give us even a partial refund. They left a young girl at the front desk who couldn't offer any help other than, "I'll have to call my boss." We requested that her boss call us, and that never happened either. Update & response to site management response: We clearly did need the AC, it is often muggy / humid on the coast. Leaving the window open all night with the noisy fan in it, left the room very humid and muggy in the morning. Not to mention noise from the Best Western next door, and the view of their garbage area. And having staff tell us that they can't make a decision, but have to call their boss is not supportive. Neither is not calling us when we requested a phone call to discuss further. "Not fancy" is one way to put it. Dated and dusty / dingy is another way. It's semantics.

Stayed here on a Tuesday night during the middle of a long road trip. Place was quiet and eerie. With your window open, you are only accompanied by the lapping of distant waves. That is genuinely it. I probably saw 3 guests the course of my 14 hour stay. Eerie right? The dated decor didn't help either. However, I attest that this lodge is worth the stop. All of the workers were nice, the mattresses were extremely comfy, and the views were beautiful. All components of a great stay. Truthfully maybe this place doesn't deserve five stars. But I am rooting for this establishment. I hope you all enjoy oceanfront lodge as much as I did.

It was austere, starvingly decorated, the ceiling was the same texture and color as the walls. Aggressive signage, passive aggressive laminated signage installed at the behest of a paranoid, and tasteless owner who clearly had more interest in aggressing the patrons of the hotel than anything else. Overpriced, undercared for, even the jacuzzi was an eyesore. Images attached. Avoid as much as you can help. Truly a hilariously, awful experience. The only upside to renting the most expensive room for a night, was how absolutely comedically awful the room itself was. We got a good laugh from it. The bathroom as well is the cherry on top of the shit sandwich, it too shares the same austere, low-budget pornographic character as the rest of the room.

Though the cleanliness was questionable at a glance, it did carry the overwhelming sent of bleach; so I was pretty certain I wasn't going to contract a disease. Cons: walk in the room and the place reeks of cigarettes and bleach. I can deal with the smell, since it wasn't stale smoke trapped in the fabric of the furniture, but seemingly was just the aroma from every other patron there sucking down their lung darts. However, Not supposed to smoke anywhere near the rooms, but people standing on walkway smoking, and the smoke just wafts into the open window. Just close the window you say? Well there is no heat or ac. Need to open the bathroom and front window to get even the slightest airflow. I didn't want the window open, but if I closed it I may have well camped in Death Valley in the peak of summer. This is also a super sketchy area, in my opinion. Some golem of a creature kept walking back and forth on the walkway. I say golem because every step sounded like their feet were made of solid stone; heaviest footfalls ever!! From the first step on the staircase to the last at the very end of the walkway. Im also fairly certain that the north coast inn is a haven for drug users. People yelling and arguing for at least 30 min. someone drunkenly shouting something unintelligible for a loong period of time. some dude screaming "oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh" like he was being stabbed to death, and at multiple intervals through the night (and there were even more "oh's" but for the sake of writing this I'm limiting the occurrence). some random crack head banging on someone's door wailing and crying. Then her presumed boyfriend arrives and they start peeking in car windows and jiggling car door handles. Had to run them off as I was walking my dog (yes it was that blatant). I did call the cops if you're wondering, but it's California where they coddle and never punish those doing illegal and nefarious deeds. One of them got into the cooler in my truck bed and I had to run them off again. Called the cops again... still nothing. Needless to say I didn't get any sleep. I told the front desk and the kind lady took a note, but didn't seem to attempt to call cops either. You'd think with enough callls to the police, they just might take care of the issue... nope. Also, it's right right off the highway so it's terribly noisy, even if you pretend the screaming, crying, arguing, crack head activities, attempted break ins, wasn't an issue. All in all it was a sleepless and extremely irritable night. I ended up feeling like and looking like the crack head; every noise, I was at the window, peeking out due to the prior issues leading to extreme paranoia. Every moment I finally could relax, some asshole would rev the hell out of this car and jolt me back to consciousness, or the meth addicts would cause me to wake. It's a damn shame cuz the area is beautiful. Not the town, it's a shithole, in a cute coastal town kinda way, but beautiful scenery... this could be a destination location, but poor state and city policy will keep it one of those places you only wanna pass through. I recommend spending more money and staying elsewhere, just for a little more peace of mind. If I were only rating based on the staff, it would be five stars all the way. This review is in no way a reflection of the employees. Unfortunately, the haphazard condition of the facilities, noise, and most of all safety and security concerns bing it down to a two star review. I feel terrible, cuz the staff is trying hard to make the spot as good as they can. I want to give it a much better rating, but in all honesty, I think I'm being too generous offing even two stars. I hope my experience was the exception and not the norm. With that, I'll say: Weary traveler beware.... And Godspeed.
