Well worth the price!
The room and grounds were very clean and well kept. We were met at the counter with smiling faces and great personalities. We took our dog with us and they were very accommodating. We actually stayed a second night. It was very quiet there, with rocking chairs outside the rooms for outdoor relaxation. Beds were comfortable. The breakfast was good. The breakfast area was continuously cleaned after guests came and went. Counters were immaculately kept. If we're ever in the area again, we will definitely stay here!

The room seemed to be clean. The cleaner was very strong. We had to open door to get smell out. This is an older motel and really needs to be updated in the bathroom

The room and property were very clean, neat, and well cared for. The staff was always available, helpful and friendly. A very nice place to stay at a fair price. A nice touch were the rockers outside each room allowing you to enjoy the fresh mountain air and view.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The managers there were very nice. What I didn't like about the room was that it wasn’t as clean I like my hotel rooms. There was dust on the lamps and some of the other fixtures in the room. About 3 spiders on the ceiling in the main room and bathroom shower. We checked for bed bugs just because the place didn’t appear well-kept. The tissue box was not refilled. The bathtub had old soap in the corner. The bathroom wall had yellowish dripping stains running down the wall. Also, I did not care for the water pressure in the shower. I felt like I couldn’t get all the soap out of my hair. Another thing I will add is about the AC/fan unit. I like it cold when I sleep so I had the ac on. Well, it was so incredibly loud when it would shut off and just as loud when it turn back on. Every time it did that it startled me and I did not sleep much at all. I did appreciate the carpet-less flooring. I hate wondering what germs are all in the carpet when I stay in hotel rooms like that. So it was nice to have a carpet-less room. The breakfast was really good!! That was probably the best part of my stay.

Spacious room. Cold refrigerator. Shower had good water pressure and hot water. Great pillows and comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast. Personable staff. Easy check in and check out. The only thing that was a HUGE turnoff was the room was over sprayed with Febreeze or some other air freshener. The smell was overpowering and nauseating when first walking into room. Had to leave door open. After the fourth day the smell remained strong when first entering room after being gone all day.
