Overall – we liked the place. It was roomy enough for my wife and I. The location is pretty good – about a ¼ mile from the main front street of Avalon, and even closer to the market. It has a nice patio out front with a view of the mountains and neighborhood.
Though I have to say – we started calling it the Low Watt Lodge - which is why it gets four stars. Bathroom has 3 lights: 2 were burned out. Patio has 2 lights – one was burned out. Kitchen uses 25 watt bulbs (I mean – get some LEDS; even less wattage – and much more light) – I mean – it was dim in there. In the living room – there is one low watt bulb high up in the ceiling; I literally had to use my iPhone flashlight to use the TV remote. I’m all for saving energy – but that’s what LEDs are for.
There were a couple of other minor things that had me scratching my head. I told my wife – Give me $100 and 30 minutes at the Home Depot and I could bring this place up to 5 stars in no time.
