Check- in was was quick, easy and Jeff at the front desk was friendly, informative & welcoming.The room was roomy, very clean and comfortable. The hotel is located near the heart of all the restaurants and shopping. They have a nice large parking lot which is key because the town is very crowded on weekends and parking can be challenging. As gas lodging goes, I don’t think we could have made a better choice! It was excellent!
Room was already paid for and hotel billed me for same room hours after checking out. Notified staff and Manager never contacted me, i don't think she wants to reimburse me.

always a great stay! this is my go-to hotel when i stay in julian (which is a few times per year). the beds are a little on the firm side, but i prefer that so works for me! centrally located and walking distance to everything! great friendly service, and very cute and spacious clean rooms. can't wait to stay again! do beware that they charge $10 lot parking, except it's totally not needed as there's plenty of street parking.

The AC/Heating unit was extremely dirty. Couldn’t even turn it on because it would’ve just blown a bunch of build up dust and dirt at us. I have asthma so that was a bummer. The toilet had a black rim so I can only assume it wasn’t cleaned before we put stay.

Last time we stayed there they served breakfast, but I was informed that hasn’t happened since the pandemic. Not a deal breaker, but still a disappointment. Otherwise the was great. Convenient location in town is a big plus!

The rooms are clean but a little outdated. I call it granny’s bedroom :)
There is no place in the bathroom to put anything! There is not even a shelf in the shower to put a bar of soap or shampoo?? It is a handicapped bathroom but if I had been in a chair-I would not be able to access things without geting out of the chair to reach the floor. There is nowhere to sit with a mirror and light to get ready for a special event-that's for sure! The bed was ok- fairly hard but the linens were very soft which was nice.
Excellent customer service, room makes you feel like you are back in time, and kept clean. My complaint is the lack of comfort for the beds. I have stayed in the double and queen size mattress rooms and both are terrible for your back; regardless if you have pre-existing issues. Also, queen rooms do not have a fridge but the double bed rooms do.

Rather old and tired and in need of an upgrade but clean enough, bed comfortable and staff friendly. Easy couple of minute walk to town for shops and restaurants for breakfast or dinner.
We had a great time. The room was exactly what we had helped for. It’s not fancy but it’s very clean and comfortable. We were right downtown so it was easy to get to everywhere we wanted to go.
Jeff (hotel staff onsite) was friendly and professional — from when my husband arrived to when we departed. We really enjoyed our stay at the Julian Lodge, especially the proximity to Main St. where all of the shops and restaurants are located — everything is walkable! Next time we are in town, the Julian Lodge is where we will stay and recommend to all of our friends and family!
