Recently 6 of us (all over 70 and some over 80) spent 3 nights @ Thurman's Lodge. The rooms were spacious and clean. Everyone of us spoke of sleeping well, comfortable beds, plenty of towels, etc. This was "off season" but we were still able to see a show each night and Mr. Thurman supplied us with enough brochures that...

Clean, friendly staff, but the rooms and furnishings are very dated. The carpet throughout this place really needs to be replaced. If you're looking for an inexpensive place to sleep, it's worth the price. The wireless doesn't work on the first (basement) level. Beds are a little hard.

Stayed here many times, the rooms are always clean, service is always outstanding and even though you have to wait for the office to open the coffee is good! If your looking for the Hilton, don't come to Eureka at all. This is small community full of motels and bed and breakfasts. Thurman's is a great place to lay your... More

While it is more a dated motor lodge, it is family-run with exceptionally friendly staff and the rooms are very clean room. Old clean furniture vs. new dirty hotel wins every time. There is, however, a pool.

I wouldn't wish this motel's experience on my worst enemy. When we first checked in, the night manager was very nice and accommodating. Although the state of the motel was not ideal (a mattress stained with urine was propped up against the stairs we had to pass), we were still planning on making the best of the situation. However, the... More

I am sorry that your stay with us was as unpleasant as you have indicated. You are correct, that prior to your stay, a young child had an accident on one of our beds. We were in the process of rectifying that situation and purchasing a new mattress for that room for that weekend. I'm also sorry that you interpreted... More

I stayed at Thurman's Lodge because I gave my family member the option to choose and he stopped at the first cheap hotel he could find. Big mistake. Several reasons go into this opinion: 1. The rooms are damp and moldy smelling, not to mention they smell like cigarettes. 2. the air conditioners are old and broken. 3. They have... More

The motel my husband and I wished to stay at was full, so on that motel's recommendation we stayed here. Big mistake! The rooms were clean. (Thanks to the owners wife, who was very, very sweet and nice.) However the entire place was very dated. The sheets were old and stained in spots, the shower door was broken, and the... More
