While in the process of moving to the Chico/Paradise area we needed a place to stay for "about" a week. I called every hotel and inn in Paradise and found the Lantern Inn tied with another hotel for the lowest weekly and nightly rates. After driving to Paulsons and speaking with them, we went to the Lantern Inn, where we met Eric and Wendy Sjoberg, who trated us with kindness that is not common to find these days. We were instantly impressed by how clean their rooms are. Our escrow took almost 5 weeks and I dont think that I could have handled staying in any other hotel. Our 90 lb. dog Rusty was also welcome. The location is excellent, about 30 yards from the Skyway. I am highly recommending the Lantern Inn. more
