I was pleasantly surprised by condition of Brookside Lodge, at such a competitive price. The staff was very welcoming, and shortly after I booked the room, I received a call letting me know that my room was ready at 9:30 am. Upon arrival, I was also given two bottles of water and two apples, which was a nice touch. The room is small but clean, with no chemical smell, and it includes a refrigerator. We also have a private balcony with a lovely view of the creek. Very happy with my choice!
