Good,clean, no frills.
To quote another review that I read before staying there, it wasn't the Taj Mahal, but it was clean, accomodating and friendly.

Probably would not book again.
Check-in was not terribly convenient -- had to ring, and wait for someone to come to desk. Was handed a key and told which room was ours. No other introduction. I was either unable to figure out how to work the air conditioner, or it was broken -- the room never did get down to 76 degrees. The "grab and go" breakfast was a Keurig with coffee and tea and a granola bar -- not really a "breakfast'". I was disappointed.

Basically a motel with a nice location. The room was very basic with very few amenities and a smell of cleaning fluid.

Was disappointed that the restaurant was closed. Wish they had let people know ahead of time.
The self Checkin was ok. But kinda creepy at the same time.
Room and beds were nice enough though.

Very quaint little property. Enjoyed our stay. Nice fire pit. I would stay again. Can’t wait till the bar is open. Very clean and nice view of the mountain and right down the road from Manchester Center.

It was very pleasant, nice owners. Still renovating, but comfy. There might have been a slight plumbing issue, the plumbing seemed to be a little overwhelmed by volume of water after showers.

Room is clean and comfortable. Nice view. However, it appears that front desk barely exists and the room to eat breakfast is under construction. Also, no ice machine. All of this should have been posted and visible on Travelocity to better align custsomer expectations.

Most wonderful towels we have ever used. Big and fluffy! The walk-in shower was also wonderful. The room and property were very clean. The tv was quite large. We wished the beds were more comfortable. :/
Inn keeper was efficient and pleasant.
Looks like there's some renovations underway.
The setting was idyllic.

The setting was excellent with views of mountains.
The motel is ideal for younger couples and families, but not as good for older folks. The steps are too high and railings and handholds are needed.
