Pros +

  • Location for everything was amazing. Kids loved it. Kids room, park and parent eats.
  • Hotel was within walking distance to town and restaurants.
  • Nice location by the lake & local parks, restaurants, & shopping. Spacious room, great amenities at the hotel with a pool, spa, work-out room, bar & restaurant. Close to the Redwood Forest Walk which is a fantastic, relaxing experience.

Cons -

  • Not a thing.
  • When I think of Novotel, I think nice. This hotel was rundown. It looks like the hotel has not had any upgrades from the last 40 years.
  • Beds were nice, but a little bit too soft. The parking was tight if you have a larger car. Other than that everything was great.

Staff very helpful and friendly
Absence of staff to help with luggage, would have been happy to provide a substantial tip. Also no information in room about the hotel, e.g. restaurant, spa, check out time, process.
