Excellent value for the money and a great location for our travels -- perfect for exploring the area. The room was very spacious but the queen bed was saggy in the middle. It had poured right before we arrived and it was very humid the next morning so we were not able to take advantage of lovely outdoor seating area.

Great place to stay

Really enjoyed our stay at the Lodge of Hocking College. Would prefer that queen bed to be a king. That would have made it a 5 star for us.

Great Budget Option

If your looking for a safe, clean affordable option in the area this is it. Just don't expect too much since students run the operation

Wonderful hotel

Room was excellent. Bed was super comfy. Location of hotel was beautiful. Bathroom had a very nice shower (no tub) the decor was new and had a log cabin feel. The only thing was the breakfast wasnt really a continental breakfast. The only food they had was waffles and granola bars. I assume because this was a hospitality college, that they keep on top of cleanliness, service and the customer experience.
