Up To Snuff?

After numerous phone calls from every member of our family, Rob and I finally undertook the task of finding suitable lodging for our friends and family coming to our wedding this summer. We undertook this task with all seriousness, realizing that this could make or break the weekend for our incoming guests. We visited several establishments, speaking with the management at each place to discuss amenities, service, hospitality, rates, discounts, room service, breakfasts, what kind of shampoo they use and what coffee is provided in the rooms, understanding these are all very important matters to experienced travellers.

The Walnut Creek Motor Lodge proved to be an excellent option for us. Nina was very friendly and helpful at the front desk. She was able to answer all our questions and she gave us a key to see three different rooms, none of which were occupied at the time (a big improvement over our other hotel visits).

Below is an electronic copy of their brochure.
We hope you find it helpful.

Our first impression was good--nice color scheme, plenty of room and a new carpet! Rob tests out the bed to see if it's any good--it must be bouncy because the picture came out blurry.

Next we tested out the table where you may choose to write your wedding card to us--

You may want to make a call to confirm your wedding gift for us is en route--you can do this from the telephone in the room.

Every room is equipped with a coffee pot so you can enjoy a cup while you get ready for the wedding. The caffeine will help you groove on the dance floor.

Many rooms come with a toilet. Be sure to ask the front desk when you book your room if you want one of these included. They are particularly useful after using the coffee maker.

Only one room comes with this in the shower--and I've already booked it!! Sorry ladies!
