The property was well maintained, and the room itself was fine, but the bed had bed bugs, which I did not discover until the next morning. It was completely disgusting and disappointing.

As longtime visitors to Visalia, it's delightful to see that this old place is being fixed up. Our family history with the Lamp Liter goes back decades, but we'd stopped staying here a few years back when it had really gone downhill. That's now ended, and she's being fixed up, one room at a time. We were comfy in our updated room and will definitely be back!

The room and everything were great. I purchased the room from out of state to help a family member get away from a domestic violence situation, however they were turned away when they didn’t have the additional cash deposit that is not disclosed on the website. Even after explaining their situation, they were turned away. I called the next morning and was able to get it figured out thanks to a different staff member.

Not thrilled with the new Lamp Liter : /

The Lamp Liter used to be my favorite place to stay in the area but they are under new ownership and I’m honestly not impressed. There were no lounge chairs by the pool which is very surprising to me considering it is summer time and in the high 90s/low 100s. I went out bought my own lounge chair so I could enjoy the pool area (the pool is the only amenity at this place) only to then have to leave to pool area because I had a dog on a leash laying next to me. I called ahead of time to ensure I could bring a dog and was never told the dog wouldn’t be allowed in the pool area at all. Very disappointing as I was traveling with my mom and was hoping to enjoy a pool day with her.
