Good from far, but far from good.
We felt from the photos that this would be a nice hotel. Maybe holiday inn express like it was over $200 a night and yet it was a motel. No ice, no microwave, towels were stained and thin. Bathroom was very, very dirty. The bed were fine and their linens were nice. The heater was loud. Parking was good. It was like a diy project. Wood, chipped doors and counters, paint peeling and wall stains. Not well maintained. Funny the bedding, TV and sink were so updated. No one is on site either so a bit of an issue if you need anything. We asked for ice at check in, but they did not provide it.

Love this place!
Great location; friendly staff; VERY clean; up to date fixtures; lovely bathroom with all necessary amenities including makeup remover and soft fluffy towels. Beds were VERY comfortable with fabulous sheets: The Utopia Collection. The room had a kitchenette with everything necessary to cook and assemble your own meals. 2 wine bottle openers - YEAH! Adorable old fashioned (but very new) Frigidare with freezer. Stove and oven were immaculate. Will gladly stay here again next year!

Cute clean room with easy parking and super convenient to a bunch of local attractions. Only negative was that the bathtub was super dirty and the water was yellow. Maybe just part of being in the mountains?

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was clean, but the shower was lousy - very low water flow rate. The exhaust fan in the bath apparently didn't work, so I opened the bathroom window - which opened to the balcony of another room. The liquid soap dispenser in the shower barely dispensed. The bed sagged. We requested and paid for early check in, but the staff didn't know about it and the manager was elsewhere. The staff were nice; they simply didn't know they were supposed to make up a room early for us. The office was vacant. One nice thing: the AC/heater was quiet and worked well.

We had to wait to check in because the staff had left the property to get dinner. When we called the number, we had to call 3-4 times before getting an answer. Also, a staff member unlocked our door and walked in on us an hour before check out. My girlfriend was changing at the time!

Pet friendly stay
We enjoyed our stay simple clean room with a comfortable bed. This is a no frills updated old school motel. Great for a nights stay. We chose it because it's pet friendly it met that need. Our 1 year old lab loved exploring the green area behind the motel has a great seating area for humans as well. Bonus there's a restaurant across the street which is pet friendly also.

I liked that I got messages on my phone of when the room was ready, the room numbrs and the codes to get it. We needed Ice in the rooms so we called the front desk and it was delivered on our rooms before we even go there. Two dinning places in walking distance were great. We will return
