This place really came through in a last minute. Room was clean and all the amenities were provided. Thank you Oakhurst Lodge. You really accommodated us. Dog friendly but give them a heads up (call). You need a short stop this is the spot. Side note, go across the street and hear THE TALKING BEAR. read more

I stayed here with my dog for two nights in May 2025 (Room 54) and really hoped it would be a peaceful, pet-friendly stop near Yosemite. It wasn't. There were raccoons going through the trash right outside our room, which kept my dog barking all night. I had to move the trash myself because no one was on-site to deal with it even though they advertise 24-hour reception. That's just not okay when you're traveling with a dog who needs to feel secure. The room itself was also in bad shape and there was feces on the toilet when we arrived, the A/C didn't work, the chair was stained, and the floor felt sticky. We requested housekeeping using the door sign, but no one ever came. I had to go to the front desk to get towels myself. I tried to resolve this calmly and even followed up by email. Instead of replying, they quietly took $30 off the bill and said that's all they could do. Honestly, if you're traveling with a pet and want a clean, quiet, and safe space--this is not it. read more

BUGS ON BED. DOOR LATCH WAS BROKEN , HANGING OFF THE DOOR. ROOM WAS FILTHY. AC DOES NOT WORK. NO HOT WATER. TOWELS HAD STAINS. 24/7 CONCIERGE IS A LIE. I woke up with BUG BITES on me as well. THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. I tried to speak with a manager to get a refund for this $291 night stay and she refused. She never apologized and said she will " let the owner know" in A MONTH WHEN HE'S BACK. She said "it's too difficult" to refund I don't know how these people sleep at night knowing they're literally robbing people. Manager is not doing her job correctly she can't even give refunds for rooms that are inhabitable. I asked why they're booking rooms that have broken door locks and she said "it's probably fixed by now we never noticed it" which proves they probably never even cleaned the room. HUGE lability issue. read more

If I could give Oakhurst lodge zero stars that's what I would give them! If you value your money DO NOT book here!!! They don't have hot showers not even warm! I'm in a wheelchair and if I would have been ok with an ice cold shower I still wouldn't have been able to because I couldn't reach the shower head- not wheelchair accessible! Where there were outlets they didn't work. Couldn't charge phones or my husbands CPAP machine. The microwave, coffee maker and fridge all just for show- didn't work! The light in the ceiling also didn't work! Only light that worked was a table lamp. WORST hotel room I've ever been in! Total dump! read more

Oakhurst lodge didn't meet our expectations: To start with, this lodge provides motel-style accommodations with rooms overlooking the parking lot. As the lodge guests arrived in the middle of the night, it got very loud, making it difficult to sleep. Second, our toilet seat wasn't well connected to the toilet. We asked for the toilet seat to be replaced. The replacement toilet seat contained a crack. Third, there was no soap in the room. The front desk lady brought us body wash to use instead of soap. Fourth, the bathroom door contained an indentation in it. Fifth, the walls of the room had different patches of green on them. Last, the TV wasn't easy to turn on. On the plus side, the front desk lady was very helpful. Overall, we won't be back. read more

I've been here a couple of times. The first time was during the holidays. Their free breakfast was much better than the second time I went, which was at the end of April. Also, the room they gave me had a smoke detector hanging out of the ceiling. And the Kleenex box had two tissues left. Other than that seems to be a nice place to stay for the price although it's really not that cheap. There are cheaper options, but I believe for the price. This was a decent place to stay. The office personnel was always very cordial and polite. Also, their TV service is questionable Not very many options to watch. read more

Decided to take a road trip for 2023 New Year's and stayed at the Oakhurst lodge. Great place I would definitely recommend. Bed was surprisingly comfortable. no fancy amenities, but do you really need them when you're out hiking and enjoying the surroundings? Restaurants and coffee are all within walking distance. I would definitely return. read more

Where shall I begin?! We were given a room all the way in back. No words needed, as the pics will show you everything wrong about staying here. Worst experience ever. 1) Check-in is at 3pm. Do not arrive at 2:40. The unfriendly girl in front will have you come back to check in. 2) Room in back was completely filthy. Bed looked like it had been slept in for years and not cleaned--no exaggeration. 3) Door paint peeling off, and window screen bent. 4) Grime and mold in tub! 5) Gross stains on ceiling. 6) Traveling contractors are put in rooms in back, too. You'll be awaken by workers running their engines at 5-6am to warm their work vehicles 7) Supposedly no upstairs rooms available. Yet, people were coming in and given upstairs rooms. 8) Family with kids jumping around upstairs until past midnight. Worst place I've ever stayed. This surprises me for such a popular tourist destination. Yosemite is beautiful, but not having a decent night's sleep does affect the experience. read more

Looking for a place to stay at a reasonable price. I was pleasantly surprised with how clean the room was and how cute the inside was. Looking and the reviews now (lol, I should have looked before I booked the room but honestly never thought of hotels for Yelp! now i know!), I think they've remodeled since the other reviews. The bathrooms are decent and the king bed room was roomy. The front room is friendly and polite. I think once they get the kinks out they could be a 4 star. Little things like 2 wastebaskets in the room (one in the bathroom and one in the bedroom). A shower mat in the tub would be nice so you won't slip or the decals to make it less slippery. How about a box of tissue for blowing your nose? Little touches could make this a stellar hotel. read more

Where do I begin? There is no soap in any of the dispensers and there's blood on our toilets which is not mine or family members. The good is at least the Internet is fast and the shower pressure is good. But hygiene is bad here!! So gross. I hope I don't get bed bugs....yikes. read more

My family and I visited Yosemite memorial weekend 2021 and we stayed at Yosemite lodge. Bruce let us check in early and was very nice and pleasant. The room was clean and decent. The only upside is the air conditioner. It gave cold air it just didn't reach the entire room. When we checked out, the woman at the front desk was very nice too. I'm assuming she was the owner and or/manager. The rooms are a bit outdated BUT they are renovating the rooms so hopefully by the time we visit again the rooms will have been completed. The pool is open and parking is free. Sorry I don't have photos to upload, I forgot to take some. I was too excited for Yosemite. read more

BED BUGS! BED BUGS! BED BUGS! You have been warned!! I am never one to leave negative reviews for a business but when Mr. Norman Bates, I mean Bruce Loyd, at the front desk refused any kind of compensation for my traumatic experience, I felt it necessary to try and warn future visitors. I have never been bitten by a bed bug in my life and all night I could feel something crawling on me in the sheets. I turned the flashlight on in my phone and tried to see them but was unsuccessful due to their shy nature to light. Once morning came I had bites all up and down my back that certainly were not there prior to our stay at the Bates motel, I mean Oakhurst Lodge. As we were leaving and had removed our luggage from the room, I gave the mattress and box spring a good shaking and sure enough began spotting the gross little things hopping around. (See the pictures attached for bites and bug pics) When we approached Mr Bruce Loyd with our honest descrepancy substantiated by PICTURE EVIDENCE of the bugs and PHYSICAL BITES ON MY SKIN, his excuse was "well sometimes these things happen when we get foreigners from other countries. They have a tendency of bringing bed bugs into the hotel....." WHAT?!?!?! THATS YOUR EXPLANATION BRUCE LOYD??? I could give a rats ass what the reasoning behind me being the entree for a family of bed bugs that night was, what are you going to do to fix the problem???! His response was let me talk to Nick when he gets in, aka the management team, and he will reach out to you. We left him our cell phone numbers and he never attempted to reach out. Don't stay here, I guarantee you this Bruce Loyd character went ahead and booked guests in our room right after we complained about the bed bugs. Wouldn't put it past these people. Btw the rates are a complete rip off, around 250 a night so find a better place. You won't regret it! read more

Oakhurst Lodge - Bed Bug Bites on my back from my stay at Oakhurst Lodge - Hotels Near Me - Oakhurst, California

I strongly suggest staying anywhere besides the Oakhurst Lodge. First of all the concierge "Josie" is unfriendly, racist, and unhelpful. It's not clean, smelled funky, and the shower was cold, the tv didn't work. When we called and asked her for assistance she was rude and emotional about helping us. I don't think working at a hotel is the right job for this woman. Do yourself a favor, spend a little more money and head to best western or comfort inn up 41. read more

Room was dirty. No toilet paper, bathtub didn't work, tv had a big blue line, coffee maker broken, smelt like something dead, pee stain on sheet, miss matching paint and drywall, wires hanging out of fire alarm, multi plug stretched among floor for TV, blown light bulbs, sticky furniture, door doesn't close unless slammed, cigarette butts around entrance, pool is green and moldy, have to drive through 6" puddles of mud and water to get to room, toilet tank was apart and ran all night, used soap left in bathroom, woman's hair in tub, tv blocking room mirror, took almost 10 minutes to get hot water, said they were booked and had to buy a double when I was by myself. ( only one car in parking lot) moldy breakfast. Ect, ect... read more

While in Oakhurst or need a place to crash before you hit up Yosemite or Basslake consider this place. If you're on a budget and all you need is a place to drop your stuff and shower from time to time, come here. Pluses: Cozy beds, flat screen TVs, Coffee in the room and a blow drier. There's a breakfast bar in the lobby as well. Location is within walking distance from restaurants, fast food and a Rite Aid. Cons: When we arrived there was an old coffee filter in the machine and this was never changed out when the room was cleaned, nor were the cups replaced. Room kinda smelled like there was "smoker" in it before. Its not a very quiet location either. There were all sorts of voices waking me up at 4 in the morning on the last night. AND the OJ machine was busted. Older reviews of this place dont surprise me either. But like Emily M. says "Hey, you get what you pay for.". Overall: Sure Id stay here again. Management just needs to get the cleaning staff in line and maybe add a security guard at night. read more

The lock on our first room didn't work, so anyone could access the room. After putting our stuff away we discovered this issue just as we were trying to lock the door to leave for dinner. The staff graciously moved us to another room. The carpets in the new unit were stained with well something. The electrical outlets aren't located where you expect. One useable outlet in the bathroom and for the coffee maker. on top of a high shelf. There was no clock or radio. They did had TV and wifi. There wasn't a closet just two partitions with a rod and hangers. There is no cleaning service, we stayed three nights and had to put a hang tag on the knob to have our towels changed. The door had a 1/4 to 1/2 inch gap at the bottom that huge issue given the temp was in the mid 60's at night. In the winter the room will have a definite draft unless they install a threshold. The so called breakfast included bagels and toast and a waffle maker and yogurt. No eggs of any kind. some cereal. The orange juice dispenser was out of orange juice. The staff were nice and welcoming. read more

Good value, comfortable, CLEAN. quite... a down side, volume button on tv doesn't respond, boo who... ... so for the room rate, (we had a group rate) a good deal.... read more

Oakhurst Lodge - My room - Hotels Near Me - Oakhurst, California

SUPER friendly staff. Not only did he (didn't get his name..) reduce our price (for a short notice extended stay-on a weekend too!), but he was very helpful in introducing us to the area/recommending hikes around Yosemite Valley. Do not expect a hotel-like place, it is definitely not fancy. Still, a very fair deal considering what the prices are like a bit closer to the valley. It took us about 1h45min to drive from the Lodge to Glacier Point (AMAZING hikes up there), but I believe it is under a 30 minute drive from the South entrance of the valley. All in all, we were pleased with this spot. Would go back again next time I'm in the area! read more

This BY FAR THE WORST HOTEL I have ever stayed in. It is worse than the worst Motel 6. Motel 6 is like the Waldorf Astoria compared to this place. So we arrive. TV doesn't work, and there is no soap at all in the room. I call the front desk. The manager guy (Who is probably the owner, but he doesn't want you to know) brings soap and fixes the TV. No apologies at all from him. He leaves. Next day is spent at Yosemite Valley. We arrive back after a long day of activities to find that our rooms have not been cleaned. The beds are unmade, and there are still used towels in the bathroom. I call the front desk. The same manager guy says he doesn't know why the room wasn't cleaned, and says he'll speak to the cleaning lady. Again, no apologies from him. The next day, I take a shower. The hot water lasted for approximately 60 seconds, before turning almost as cold as the weather outside. I had to jump out of the shower naked. I just dried off, instead of going back into that ice water. I call the front desk. The manager guy says that the water turned cold because most of the guests are probably taking a shower at once, at that is putting a burden on the heating tank. DUDE, NOT MY PROBLEM. FIX IT. Checkout was the same day. At checkout, I asked for a discount or a refund, due to the terrible amenities. The manager refused, stating that he is simply a manager, and the owner would not grant such a request. I mentioned all of the problems. He kept agreeing with me that there are problems with the hotel, and acted like he is powerless to fix them. I asked to speak with the owner, and he gave me the following email address on a card: Reservations@oakhurstlodge.com. He says to email that address to reach the owner. HAHAHA. The guy thinks I'm an idiot. He gave me the address to the hotel's own reservations unit. If I send an e-mail there, the same manager guy will receive my complaint email, laugh out loud to himself, then delete my email. As I left in disgust, there was a poor old man, who had to be at least 75, complaining that his room had NO HOT WATER AT ALL. Poor guy. I felt bad for him. AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE. The rooms are worth $15 a night MAX, simply because the amenities (or lack thereof) are much worse than any Motel 6 ever. The only reason they can charge remotely as much as they do is because they are located near Yosemite. read more

I never really write reviews but I feel the need to mention that I overall enjoyed my time at the Oakhurst Lodge, but find it extremely disappointing that my nice pillow was not returned to me upon leaving it at the motel. I called several times to ask if my pillow was found and nothing showed up. It was never turned into the front desk. I'm recovering from a dislocated shoulder and I used that special pillow to keep my shoulder and back straight when I sleep. I am very angry about this but I guess there's nothing I can do. I hate to say this but don't leave any valuables in your room when you're away and be sure to pack up everything before leaving. I don't understand why anyone would want to take or throw away someone else's pillow. (I stayed at the Oakhurst Lodge during March, 2017) read more

I gave it a 3 star rating because 2.5 stars wasn't an option. This is definitely not the Marriott. The room was simple but clean. The television didn't work initially but we called the front desk and within minutes someone showed up and fixed it. (just a settings issue). They do allow dogs but you must request a "pet room' in advance. We didn't try the breakfast. There were no bugs of any sort in our room. There were two of us in the room and we didn't run out of hot water when showering. My only real complaint was that the air conditioning didn't work well, they did offer to give us a different room but it was late and we were exhausted so we just stayed put. All in all I think it is overpriced for the accommodation . But if you are pressed for a place to stay, it's centrally located and clean. read more

The AC didn't work right, there are soap and shampoo dispensers that didn't work, the blow dryer had fallen off the wall and with a rick coil attached to it it was very hard to use. Everything was booked closer to Yosemite, so this was one of my few options at $200 a night. Would not stay here again. read more

BED BUGS, BED BUGS!!!!!!! If you like to sleep with bed bugs, then this hotel is for you. They made no attempt to treat the room and I was immediately accused of bring the bugs with me! I was shocked and offended. Stay away... read more

Short story: 1. this place is extremely ghetto looking for the area 2. the people that work here have no idea what they are doing 3. we were not given service at all due to their own negligence even though we pre-paid 4. they refused to let me talk to a manager or owner or even give me their information because it is "against California law" Long story: We arrived to this location after a 4 hour drive from the Bay Area only to be told they were not accepting check-ins because their "server was down." I understood and figured we were a bit early anyway (about 1:15pm), so we went to eat some amazing BBQ at Todd's BBQ (see other yelp post, 5 stars) and drive around Bass Lake. We returned after 3pm but were told their servers were still down and they could not service us or any customers at all. Now, I'm no hotel clerk extraordinaire, but if I worked at a place and had a major problem like this, I would take the initiative and use some problem solving skills to get the job done without the all powerful computer. Seriously, how hard would it be to revert to the ancient times of doing business and use paper and logic? It might be hard, and you might confuse some things and make it difficult, but wouldn't that be better than telling a whole hotel's worth of customers to wait for an unknown amount of time in 90 degree heat after they spent unsaid hours driving to your vacation spot? Personally, we have plans, so we can't wait on incompetence. So, after we were told that we could not check in I asked to speak with the manager or owner. The pre-law grad behind the desk told me that giving a "stranger" the information of the manager was "illegal under California law." I explained to her that the statement was nonsense. I am not a stranger, I am a customer. I paid $300 for a service that I was not being provided with so I wanted to speak with a manger. I was refused, so I made sure another person witnessed it, which they did and noted I would eventually get the information anyway and advise I was refused service and the manager's contact information. I understand technical problems, but if that technical problem completely shuts down your business and renders your employees mentally impotent, it's time to create a back up system or hire someone who gradumatated heh skoo. PS, we went to Best Western, a block down, with great service, better lodging, pools, and all that at a comparable price. We got our Oakhurst reservation canceled through hotels.com, where we made the reservations. read more

Hey, you get what you pay for. In this case, I just needed a place to lay my head for the night. I paid $60 for one night. The room was dated, but decent. It was clean, but the comforters on the bed could use a little a refresher. Noise from the road was a bit loud, and so was the air conditioner/heater. But things like that are why I always travel with ear plugs and a white noise app on my phone. Problem solved. $60 for a hotel is practically nothing, so I was just pleased to walk away from there unharmed. read more

One star for location. I should have slept in my car. Pros: 15 min south of Yosemite Park entrance Parking Cons: Smelled bad Dirty coffee brewer Bathroom was partially cleaned Dirty carpet Wifi was down-when we were there Loud AC which is attached at the window I did not book this place, my step brother did. I would never have stayed if I saw these reviews. Not even for free. read more

My fiance and I stayed here for two nights in early August for a wedding. I have stayed in some horrible hotels before, but this one takes the cake. To start, we arrived at least an hour after check in, and were in a hurry to change and get settled before the rehearsal dinner. We got to our room and the door was wide open. Walked in an no one was there. Turns out the room attendants were cleaning multiple rooms at a time and had left ours hanging. After standing outside the open door for a couple of minutes wondering what was going on, finally someone showed up to let us know that they were still cleaning our room and it would be a few minutes. We ended up waiting outside of our room for about 20 minutes for them to finish. The air conditioning was a huge wall unit right under the window and next to the bed and VERY loud. The door (at least in our room) didnt seem to fit properly in the frame- I could see outside through the crack in the door it was so big! The walls are as thin as paper. Anytime someone opens or closes a door in a three room radius, you hear it and you feel it. Not to mention if anyone stands outside of their room and has a cell phone conversation in the middle of the night for 45 minutes, you WILL be woken up. We were also woken up around 6 o clock BOTH mornings, by what sounded like a lawn mower outside of our door. Looked out the window to see what it was- and YEP, its a john deer lawn mower that the care staff decided to use as transportation around the property. Let me just tell you- this lot is NOT that big- motorized transportation of ANY kind is not needed. This lodge is the best deal in the area but I'd rather stay at a Motel 6. I am not sure if there even is a motel 6 in Oakhurst, but there are a couple of 4 star hotels on the way up the freeway- I'd splurge and stay at one of those if you find yourself needing to stay in Oakhurst anytime soon. read more

Considering we booked this place 2 weeks before we came: Pluses: Flat Screen HDTV AC that works,,,,almost too well(kinda loud). A pool. Large room. 30 minutes from Yosemite's South Entrance,,,,15 mins from Bass Lake Minuses: Wi-Fi is crap. Go down the street to Starbuck's. Saggy matresses. What breakfast,,,never knew about that? All in all for $149,,not to shabby. Good value. read more

Oh... Where to begin...? I'll start by saying that Nick, the new owner, is a very nice man. He was pleasant to talk to, knew the area well, offered breakfast, etc. Unfortunately, that's where the pleasantry ends. The room. Oh boy. We walked in and the place smelled like stale smoke and bleach. The faucets all leaked, there was a large hole in the wall above the shower. There were bugs all over the bathroom. Oh, but the security was top notch! The front door locks were a joke. But the bathroom window even locked - in the form of a pvc pipe to hold the window closed... Then the bed, if you can call it that. It was pretty much an innerspring with fabric sewed around it. And the sheets were stained, so we literally slept on top of them (not in them) and used our sweaters as blankets. Needless to say, within 5 minutes of arriving, I had booked a different hotel for the next night. I truly hope Nick can turn this place around, but he has his work cut out for him. read more

Absolutely Horrible! I was taking a solo trip and Oakhurst lodge fit into my budget. I was very impressed by the young woman I spoke with when making the reservation. She was very friendly and helpful. Here is a list of all the problems: 1. Bed had not been changed. Dirty sheets. 2. Feces still in the toilet 3. used soap in the shower. 4. Filthy! 5. Air condition sounds like a jet plane 6. WiFi very weak 7. Although smoking is not allowed the room smelled of stale cigarettes. If it had not been that when I checked out the owner happened to be in the office and when I mentioned the above he told the desk clerk to comp me for both nights. I was told by someone in a coffee shop in town that they thought the business was in foreclosure. My guess is that the owner is in over his head. I will not be staying there again. read more

This budget friendly motel is one I would return to. The beds were firm, but I was still able to get a good nights sleep. The pillows were nice and soft. Our room was dated, but it's a budget friendly motel and what I expected. The room was clean. It was quiet at night. The breakfast in the morning exceeded expectations and was delicious. The breakfast room as clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. A nice place to stay for the night and I'd stay here again. read more

It was the worst motel I've ever stayed out of my life power went out in the Milva night and we left the next morning with power still off no shower no cat no breakfast and no refund the owners or a bunch of slum lord motel owners they said they would compensate me been two weeks haven't heard a word I wouldn't recommend a cockroach stay there read more

Given that Oakhurst Lodge is one of the lower-cost hotels/motels in Oakhurst, I'm rating it on a sliding scale: to what degree was it worth the money I paid? My answer: completely. We were coming in extremely late after our four-day backpacking trip lasted about five hours longer than planned and left us at 10pm in the park not wanting to deal with setting up camp and finding showers. We were looking for a clean, comfortable place to sleep and shower. The room was clean, top to bottom. None of the concerns that others mentioned were an issue. There were no foul odors, no bleach or smoke, no stains... the beds were comfy and the pillows were fluffy and ample! There were no bugs. The doors have a keycard and a interior metal lock; both worked fine! The a/c worked great and regulated the temp well. The shower was hot and the water pressure was good. On top of that, there were some unexpected bonuses--lots of soap and shampoo dispensers, a quite delicious breakfast spread (juice, coffee, cereal, bagels, toast, muffins, fresh fruit, DIY waffles, hard-boiled eggs), and the staff--even the 1am shift--was incredibly nice, friendly, and professional. The only "off" thing was that one of our towel racks was broken and had been fixed with tape. It didn't affect its function so we didn't mind, it was just a little odd! If you're looking for an affordable place to get a good night's sleep, Oakhurst Lodge was great to us. read more

I believe any poor reviews this place garnered are relevant only to the past. New management took over in autumn of 2015. Led by Nic Patel, Oakhurst Lodge now offers the most friendly and warm staff I've come across. Along with renovated and clean room interiors at affordable prices. I stayed only one night ahead of a Yosemite-plus-San-Fran road trip. But during check-in it was immediately obvious that the front desk is eager to help, professional, sincere, and well-versed on the neighboring area. Don't forget to get Nic's advice and philosophy on what the important things in life are. He's a blast to deal with, and infects customers and fellow staff alike with cheerful energy. read more

We stayed here on our way to Yosemite. The only pro to this lodge is that it is in walking distance to pretty much everything. Now the cons.. The swimming pool looks like it is manifesting diseases and hasn't been cleaned in ages. The air conditioner was a hunk of junk and sounded like it was going to bust at any moment. The front door locks were a joke, any one could have walked in. Not to mention the hole in the wall behind the door. For how much this hotel charges it is not worth it. Look elsewhere. read more

Room smells like cigarettes. When kids went to take their showers we only had cold water and when I called the front desk his response was because our neighbor must of used up all the hot water. read more

BAD, VERY BAD. They only reason they stay in business is because there are not enough hotels in the area. We got there last week and the first room that we were assigned was dirty and the sink had bugs in it, before we even walked back to the reception we started to call other hotels and everything was booked so that was it, we were stuck. Long story short, we got another room, stained and old linoleum floor in the bathroom area, the shower had black mold in the crevices, the fan in the bathroom sounded like an airplane, the a/c worked well but also old and noisy. Free wi-fi a least to get emails, little flat screen tv, hair dryer, no iron or ironing board. It's not worth $165 read more

Came to Yosemite for one day and decided to stay for two. I was looking for an economical hotel and Oakhurst Lodge fit the bill. The gentleman at the front desk was welcoming and efficient-check in was a breeze. Our room was large and clean. It was great having a little fridge and two grocery stores right down the street; we were able to lay in supplies for the next day that night, leaving us more time to play in Yosemite. Definitely an older building, but room was nicer than the exterior would lead you to believe. Simple. Clean. I'd stay here again. read more

Cliff notes: It is a below average hotel. Stay here only if you have no other options. As mentioned by other members, the best thing is its close proximity to the park, restaurants, and shops (Subway, Crab Cake house, Rite Aid, Starbucks, McDonalds, Jamba Juice, Vons, etc). We stayed here for 2 nights. We expected more for the price we paid ($120+/night at the discounted rate). Unfortunately, there was not a lot of vacancy in the area, so we settled here. We noticed a lot of unpleasant surprises with Oakhurst Lodge: 1) The room wall behind the door was punctured by the door handle. 2) The drapes did not close all the way, so we had to apply binder clips to them to prevent people from looking into our room. 3) There were stains on the towels and sheets on both nights of our stay, despite being "cleaned." 4) Our keys were mysteriously deactivated upon our return on the second night. They blamed our cell phones. 5) The staff didn't seem to know much about the area and couldn't tell us where the closest souvenir/gift shop was. Also, they could not tell us the directions to a restaurant two blocks straight down the same street. They asked us to call for directions. 6) They did not offer any breakfast due to construction. 7) They lost our check-in paperwork and asked whether we signed anything. They ended up charging us more than our promised reservation price. read more

I had a queen room for one night in June of 2016. The Good: Bathtub/Shower, pressure was OK, TV, mini-fridge, powerful A/C. Friendly service, and solid continental breakfast. The Bad: Extremely thin walls, super loud A/C, making it hard to get a good nights sleep. Conclusion: Could be worse. I would stay here again, but for no more than $70 dollars a night. read more
