Over priced

The location was good. In walking distance to trail to Lake, restaurants and shops. The room was clean but it is very dated and had an old smell to it. Way over priced!

Pretty basic property. Bathroom sink was not functional and we couldn't brush our teeth or use the sink for handwashing for a day. Front-desk didn't get anything done for the day. Next day, after they a second complaint they fixed while we were out of the room. The heater/AC thermostat was weird and we couldn't get it to function well at all. Please take an extension card along, as the outlets are minimal.

10/10 Exceptional

We booked a last minute room here as we were snowboarding at Palisades. 15 mins away with no traffic (about 25 in the traffic at 4-5pm). The room had a bedroom with a king bed and a sofa in the main room. It just fit my family of 5, but with 2 teens on the sofa pullout and my 9yo daughter in the king bed with us. Overall, it functioned well enough for a great price. It's next door to Safeway, CVS, and many food options, which was convenient when it snowed heavily and didn't want to drive. The Mountain slice pizza (2 minute walk) was 5 star delicious! And the lake was 5 mins walk away with other fancy restaurants nearby. All in all, the inn was a great find! The front office staff Taylor did a great job checking us in (early!) and helped us with everything we needed. She deserves 5 stars!

4/10 Fair

Great location. Dated rooms.

Staff very friendly. Carpet smelled really bad. Not stable water temperature so one of my kids ended up getting burned as he was taking a shower. No vent fan in bathroom so our towels never dried. The shower head sprayed water all over the place. I wish there were some simple soap/shampoo dispensers on the wall of shower. There are no wardrobes or anything other than a closet, so you’ll have to live out of your suitcase, on the floor. AC/heater is super loud, and is next to one of the two beds so whoever sleeps there will wake up super dehydrated. Please give access to the office so we can use the water filter, and install a coffee machine/tea machine. Great location.

2/10 Poor

A new low. This room has the bare minimum ... a throwback to a cheap 1950's motel. My room came with two beds, a dresser, a fridge and microwave, spotty television (kept freezing or just crashing) and (unbelievably) exactly one inconveniently located electrical outlet. What it lacked was a bedside lamp, adequate television reception, housekeeping (no cleaning for a two night stay) and a usefully functioning front desk (very limited hours). It feels like a cash cow at the guests' expense.

6/10 Good

City workers used the parking lot as a staging area and ran jack hammers and quickie saws all night. Understanding that this is unavoidable when it comes to construction but would have been considerate of the staff to at least warn customers of the situation. Additionally the staff was minimal and not friendly at all with no hours of the front door posted. Furthermore, I locked my key in the room after hours and called the emergency number they had posted, left a message and never got a call back to see if i was able to renter my room! Will not stay there again.

I will be contacting you via phone for a refund. This hotel was awful, my employees refused to stay here and I had to relocate them to another hotel. This was antiquated, dirty and the room had a foul, mildew odor, the couch was stained. Just unacceptable, even for my 2 employees in the area for work. They would have preferred a motel 6 over this place.
