Reviews of Lemon Tree Hotel

“Perfect access to Theme Parks, but away from it all!”

Lemon Tree Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Pocatello, ID
Jun 9, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

While planning a trip to Disneyland and Six Flags Magic Mountain (thanx to President Bush's REBATE!!) I was overwhelmed by the amount of information about hotels! Many in our group stayed in the Theme Park District, but I looked elsewhere because I didn't want to have so much traffic and noise.
I found this hotel on orbitz after receiving a 10% discount "code" - It looked ok on the internet, but there was some mixed reviews. I have decided it's all based on who does the reviewing.
We traveled with a 7yr old and a 13yr old. We are from Idaho where fuel is still 3.80 a gallon and you can get a decent room for 60 bux. So an average of 85 bux a night (for 4 nights) was ok.
Its located on a cross-street (East to West) to Interstate 5. It is easy to get to from I-5 AND Highway 57. The street is a 2 to 3 lane road each way with a center/turning lane. From Highway 57, there is a shopping center with grocery, KMart, lots of fast food, etc. From I-5, there is not a lot of "shopping" but you drive through a very nice downtown area. The Hotel is on the SOUTH SIDE of the road, and it sneaks up on you easily. We ended up turning around several times.
The only negative I can think of is the parking - there isnt any. We would unload the truck, and then dh would find a parking spot (on the premisis) somewhere - usually not very close to our room)
The office staff is super friendly and very helpful. The hotel is a remodeled with a lot of Spanish-influence. The breakfast each morning consists of cereal (which was PERFECT for kids), fruit, yogurt, muffins and pastries - orange juice, coffee and lemon water...Simply water with so many lemons in it, actually quite refreshing!! They tear down the breakfast stuff 10ish...
The room had 2 beds, a couch, a table, a micro and fridge, an enormous counter top/mirror outside of the toilet/shower room. I love it when the vanity is separate from the bathroom. The bathroom was quite small, but manageable. They leave typical stuff - soap, shampoo - but we got a real treat with some extras like a sample pit-stick (deod), a fancy razor, some funky hair stuff, etc. Dont know if that was standard, but hey - it was nice.
The pool is not HUGE but clean and nice, but we had little time to spend there. It was a little on the cool side, but we'd been in the sun all day, and I'm guessing that refreshing dip would have been better served by taking a nap! The grounds are amazing - the foliage is beautiful - Walking through the middle grounds, one would nearly forget that they are in the heart of SE LA!! Huge fragrant flowers, and again - immaculate.
Never did find the ice machine...then again, never did look for it. You are close to this road, and I did hear some traffic at night - a group of harleys driving by and the occasional diesel - but overall, an excellent place to stay!!

“You Won't Need an Alarm Clock”

Lemon Tree Hotel

2 of 5 stars
Bay Area, CA
Jun 7, 2008

My two teenage children and I stayed here one night during our 5-day trip to Disneyland. We booked the room @ Lemon Tree for the first day of our visit. After driving from the Bay Area for 6.5 hours, we were dead tired and we just needed a clean place to crash/sleep. We arrived around midnight and there was a clerk at the front desk to check us in without issue. The room was a double queen (n/smoking). It was small and what I would describe as 'rustic'. The bathroom is small. As mentioned by other clients, you need to stand in the shower/tub in order to close the bathroom door. There is no alarm clock in the roon but there is a clock on the wall.

At 5:30am the next morning, I realized why there is no need for an alarm clock in the room - the birds!! They wake you up when the sun rises and if you are a light sleeper, they will wake you up free of charge!! Also, your neighbor sitting in their lounge chair near your door while they smoke at 8am will help to wake you up. The birds and neighbors were not a problem for my teenagers since nothing wakes them from their sleep.

If you are thinking of going to Disneyland or Knott's - you must have a car to stay at this hotel (warning). It is not close to either attraction. If you have a car then it is no problem once you find the hotel. (Sign is hidden from the street.)

What I liked:
(1) relatively cheap ($78/night before tax)
(2) clean
(3) fridge in room

What I didn't like:
(1) birds, birds, birds (bring ear plugs)
(2) parking is tight but you don't have to park on the street
(3) furnishings were a little too rustic for me

Overall, in a pinch, I would stay here again but I would bring my ear plugs.

“Loud and Bad!!!!”

Lemon Tree Hotel

1/2 found this review helpful

Whomever rated this anything other than a 2 has got to be kidding. Are your standards that low? I will give the hotel this much - the room was clean and the amenities were fine.. Other than that. I heard every noise from the surrounding rooms. The Street Noise was horrendous. And the Birds!! - They need some cats to prowl..
The front desk was unable to give me directions from 2 blocks away. The street sign for the hotel is mostly blocked by trees in one direction and the big Semi-Trailer trucks like to park in front. In the morning - their was a sig alert(Massive Traffic Jam)on the 5 North at the 91 Fwy. I asked if I get on the 5 North at E. Lincoln (Hotel is on same street) will I pass the 91 - Front Desk answered No - Low and Behold I got caught in the Traffic Jam - 91 Was 4 miles north of the on ramp.
Why would ANYONE put a noisy Clock in a room?
I know that you get what you pay for - but I also look for High Rated Hotels that may not cost an arm and a leg - I Completely relied on the Review Ratings and was sadly mistaken - There will no longer be any stays here. And I have to spend 3 weeks in Anaheim..

“Cramped Room, Ripped us off.”

Lemon Tree Hotel

2 of 5 stars
Northern Puget Sound, WA.
May 22, 2008
1/2 found this review helpful

We stayed at the Lemon Tree for three nights. I thought that the room would be big enough for my husband, son, and I but it only had one bed and no sofa sleeper like I had thought that I had booked. So, they said that they would upgrade our room the following night for just $28.00. The next room was okay but was also small and the bathroom was SO tiny. The door barely cleared the toilet, so there wasn't really a private place to change clothes. The decor was okay but our rooms were not cleaned very thoroughly. Then, when we got our next bank statement a few days ago, we saw that they decided to not only charge us the full room charge one week after our stay but a little extra too. We will be contacting Travelocity and the hotel about this issue and hopefully, they will have the good sense to give us our money back.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — The decor.
    • Disliked — The extra, unauthorized and unwarranted money charged after our stay.

“Recommended. Great customer service.”

Lemon Tree Hotel

5 of 5 stars
White Rock, BC,
May 22, 2008

Great customer service...each of the employees did everything they could to meet our needs. Very impressed.

Our family of four stayed in one of the lower suites facing the pool that has a kitchen, pullout couch, and bedroom. The extra space was nice for our extended stay.

We used the communal bar-b-que which gave us a break from restaurants.

I'd recommend staying in one of the inside rooms as I'm guessing the ones closer to the street might be noisier.

The pool was great for the hot weather.
The continental breakfast was very basic but welcome.

If you are looking for a clean, basic, mid-range hotel with good customer service close to Disney yet away from the chaos this is a great choice.

We'd definitely return.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — close to theme parks, large room close to pool.
    • Disliked — could have better maintenence on some of the inside fixtures, they were looking a bit worn and tired.
