We stayed here for three nights. Overall, it was a pretty good hotel. I wouldn't recommend staying here without a car though (free parking!) as it is one mile from the nearest tram stop. The continental breakfast has pretty standard food, but there's lots of variety. Lots of recycling here, which is also nice.

Lamplighter met all my criteria for a good stay: the room was clean, quiet, didn't smell, and was well furnished. Ours had a kitchen area where we could make small meals and had all the essentials of cutlery, plates, etc. we needed. We didn't try the outdoor pool but I saw it be cleaned. The waffle maker wasn't in operation because of their breakfast area renovation, but they still had a nice selection of selection cereals, bagels, oatmeals, and fruit available. As others have noticed, the landscaping is very nice, with attractive flowers growing along the walkway. I felt that the manager was very responsive in my one request. Our family would definitely choose them again.

We found this hotel to be a home away from home. The room was very clean, the housekeeping service did a very nice job.The grounds and pool area were very well maintained There was a great gas grill for the guests to use, which we took advantage of. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels in the bathroom. The breakfast was always well stocked and the availability to "rent" DVD's (for free) was a nice touch. The front desk staff were very polite and accommodating. The only minor complaint that we have has nothing to do with the hotel itself but the guests, the guest who chose to smoke outside of their rooms often threw their cigarette butt into the parking lots rather than using an ashtray which was not only unsightly but unsafe for those that don't have shoes on. We would defintely return to the Best Western Lamplighter Inn in the future!
