    • It was quiet.
    • I really enjoyed the rustic cabin-esque feel of the exterior. Checkin was extremely easy and all hotel staff helpful, courteous and thoughtful.

    Cons -

    • Outdated yes but clean. Few little issues needed fixed but is nothing that can?t be fixed.
    • No manager on site, no one around. Pool was closed down, had to wait until 6pm to get in room because it was not cleaned, called #'s on door no answer, needed hand towel, alot of rooms was for locals living there,smell of cat urine and restroom sewer smel
    • We were given wifi password multiple times. Network said password not correct. Never resolved. There was also something in one of the beds that gave my daughter bite marks all over her body. She shared other bed with me and it went away.

    The staff went above and beyond to help with anything we needed

    The room smelled like smoke the further you walked into it like it was coming through the wall from the room behind. We heard dogs barking around 7:30-8:00 am every morning in the room behind us as well. There were gnats flying all over the bathroom sink.

    Near the national forest where no other hotels around

    This home style motel is old and outdated. No screen on windows and room is full of mosquitos. I am surprised to see such a place is rated 2 star hotel.

    It's a nice location near several trails

    Non smoking room smelled like an ash tray. Got in late planning on going right to sleep but the smoke smell was so strong we had to leave the door open to try & air it out, still barely able breathe. Dirty towel hanging in the bathroom and filthy carpet.

    Within walking distance to event we attended. Rate was unbeatable.

    Toilet wouldn't flush. And draft came through door.

    Location was prime

    Definitely not a place for people with allergies or asthma. Rooms looked clean but could smell musty odor.

    Pet friendly, my service animal was welcomed

    I was bitten on my right ankle by a spider, my ankle I had two puncture wounds and was sore,swollen and a large patch of skin was discolored, now I have a permanent discoloration around the area the two puncture marks were.

    Nothing. Refused to stay and found another hotel.

    Everything. 30 minutes to get someone to office. Room stunk, sheets were stained, bathroom not clean and bar of soap left from previous person. And to top it all off got people living there in adjoining room (crack heads). Didn't feel safe or worth taking the risk of how filthy it was.

    Friendly staff and quiet area, clean beds

    Dirty rooms and looked they were in need of repairs!

    We decided NOT to stay...

    When we arrived to our room I always check for bedbug or any thing else as soon as I turn the covers down there was blood spots on the comforter and a bed bug I told the manager they did offer another room but after that I just didn’t feel comfortable staying there so we turned the key in and left.

    Location was good and owner(guy) was cool

    The 1st room was disgusting the bedding was dirty It was infested with ants. I asked the lady for a clean bedding and she was like we clean and sanitize everything and we have no other rooms available so the first night there was ants that got in the bed and they covered the table beside the bed. I called to get a refund where they said they had no rooms available. The owner seen me outside and he made her change rooms. The second room smelt like straight wet dog once the floors dried. No wash clothes was brought to the new room so we had to go buy some to use. they put white powdered stuff along the wall for ants people was outside our room and was talking loud and partying all night. Tried to call the office because the Wi-Fi was not working so we cannot watch TV. No answer. I highly recommend spending the extra money to stay somewhere else.

    We didn’t, we left within 10 minutes if getting there.

    The sheets had dog prints all over them, dog hair under pillows and dead fleas on the sheets. The room stank.

    Nice friendly staff and I love the location

    Only thing that bothered me was a dog at the back of my room kept barking most of the night

    1WhalenPosted on: 11-11-2024

    There were no breakfast or restaurant at this location

    First night there tried to take a shower. The knobs fell off the lower drains for the faucet also fell off inside the tub could not use the shower cause I cannot control the heat. Water was too hot with stalled. You reported it said they would fix it. The next day came back the next afternoon, it was not fixed so I ended up spending two days without taking a shower

    1SamanthaPosted on: 10-21-2024
