It was lovely and easiest check in ever. Only complaint was that during the night the heater made some annoying noises but nothing too loud.

Ease of communication, I received a text message w/room number and door key code. Room is updated and modern, clean and comfortable. Lots of hot water but bathroom could use a little more lighting in the night.

I’ve stayed here twice before-maybe I was crazy at those times. The “spa” is in an unheated crummy building and nothing actually works. The heaters in the rooms tick like radiators. My kid didn’t even want to get under the quilt and the sheets are real cheap too. There’s a couch in the room that looks like someone’s poodle went nuts on it a few years back and no one thought twice about leaving it as is for all to be dismayed by. The mini fridge makes sci-fi noises. Anyway, we left. Thanks no thank you. Oh. And then I got a call at 8:35pm asking me for my CC info but I had already paid and received a receipt. Whoopsie.

This is an older property. We knew this and were there for deer hunting. We obviously knew that the interiors aren't brand new. We wanted a unit that had a full kitchen so we could prepare meals. We had an issue with our 1st nights room and brought it to the attention of management. He was very accommodating and moved us to another room. Very good customer service.

Buggy and disappointing
Lots of bugs in room, especially bathroom. Not roaches, something about fly-size but not a fly. Toilet got plugged, I reported it, asked them to fix it while we were gone, they just left a plunger outside the door. We fixed it ourselves. They said there was an ice maker but it wasn't working. Reported that to them as well.

The room was dirty. The bathroom shower was gross. the AC couldn't cool the room. The heaters were left on when we got there. Way overpriced and I feel taken advantage of.

Old motel coming back to life. Needs TLC and some renovations Has everything you need. Stayed in a cabin had everything you needed. Windows and screens could use a clean and AC filter to be cleaned Price is right, I will stay again hopefully longer.
