Hotel has nice view but right by the main road, making the first room extremely noisy with overnight drivers.

Hello Enrique! It is true, the one room that is closest to the road does experience the "joyful noise" (did you catch that holiday reference there?) of the road. I'm VERY thankful the motel was constructed perpendicular to the road unlike most "roadside motels" that run parallel, so only one room is roadside. Everyone else gets peace and quiet but, upon opening their room door in the morning, hot cup of coffee in hand, a look to the left still awards them the beautiful view of Lake Isabella. Maybe there's a way to have a road sign erected asking drivers to slow down and drive quiet. There's signs like that warning drivers to slow down in areas where there may be children at play, why not one asking them to "Slow Down, Guests At Rest"? Maybe I can place a scantily clad mannequin on the side of the road. That will surely make drivers slow down for a look. Of course then there's the increased risk of accidents. Maybe that's not the best idea. Anyway, thank you for your review and thank you for choosing the Lakeview Motel. May all your holiday nights be Silent Nights.

Hi Jarod! I am soooo happy you enjoyed your stay! It was a pleasure having you as a guest. I wish you and all your friends, family and loved ones a very happy holiday season. Remember, the key to happiness during the holidays is....ELASTIC WAISTBANDS. When properly attired there's always room for one more slice of pumpkin pie :) Thank you for your review and thank you for choosing the Lakeview Motel. Come back for a visit sometime.

Old school property that needs some help but was clean and you can see they try and keep it up. Room had nice thick privacy curtains but they are not black out so the sun shines in definitely need black out curtains. Was extra quiet this trip and close by to some eating establishments and convenient stores. Will be back when im back up visiting family.

Hi Ben! Were glad you enjoyed your stay! We do try our best :) Thank you for mentioning the curtain situation. While most of the rooms already do have blackout curtains there's 1 room where the curtains had been ripped by a guest so we had to replace them with what we could grab at the local Dollar Store. We did what had to be done in a pinch and, being out in a very remote area, there's no "running down to the local store real quick" option. We're on it though! We've got some new blackout curtains on order. Thank you for your very honest and fair review and for bringing it to our attention. We want our guests to wake up peacefully to soft inviting light and chirping birds, not harsh sun blaring in on them! Thank you for your review and thank you for choosing the Lakeview Motel. We look forward to having you back so we can show off the new curtains!

Good location but building is very run down. Old carpet needs to be replaced it is begining to smell. Extremely close to the highway, very noisy

Yep. As soon as we have a couple of days in a row that aren't booked we can relace the carpets. We also need some help on maintenance. There's only two of us. Want to help?? Come on back Francisco! We'll give you a free night if you'll help fix things for a day! Just about everyone we try to hire either doesn't show up, shows up but doesn't do the work (just half arses it), tries to rip us off, or has a penchant for controlled substances. It's funny how so many people (not you) complain about not having enough money but when presented with an opportunity to work, are too lazy or drug dependent to do anything or spend all their time time trying to steal from the people trying to give them a job. Anyway, (I went off on a tangent there, didn't I), Thank you for your review and thank you for choosing the Lakeview Motel. We really do appreciate the feedback and we look forward to the day when we can find some people willing to work who don't let us down.
