Not great
The hallways and room smelt like mildew, blankets were covered in stains, water pressure horrible, tons of hornets in window couldn’t open our window to enjoy fresh air from the mildew smell. The owners didn’t seemed concerned when I pointed it out when they replaced our blanket. We were told there would be a breakfast buffet, but it was only cereal. The faucet seemed broken had to tilt it just right in a weird direction for the water to not drip. Carpets in hallways needed to be vacuumed, our room didn’t seem like it was serviced by house keeping as the tissues were empty, toilet paper was not replenished, and overall just very unhappy. We won’t be back and do not recommend.

The room was OK, but there was a ring in the bathtub that looked permanent. There was a wet spot on the carpet in front of the refrigerator. The breakfast was 3 kinds of cereal, boiled eggs, toast and mini muffins. No hot food, not even a waffle maker. No friut. Pool was shut down for the season with no mention of this when i made the reservation. No elevator, had to drag the suitcases up the stairs. Small TV with about 12 channels.

Nice quiet place
Nice quiet place off the main town road. Staff were really nice, friendly and willing to help with any of our needs. Our room was smaller than I would have liked but ok for just two of us

Towels are in dire need of replacement. No ironing board or iron in room. Downtown Keystone is a considerable distance from hotel.

Save your money. The lady at the front was so nice, so its hard to leave this review. But the property could really use some money put in it. Out bathroom tub wouldnt drain, the sink water hardly came out, the room was very small and didnt seem to clean. I did feel safe, and the breakfast was good. If youre on a real budget, this place is do-able.

This hotel was the perfect place to stay, very affordable. The rooms, to us, was the perfect size and the tub was spacious. The staff were lovely and they accommodated any of our needs. The view was phenomenal. Will definitely be staying here again, very pleased with it.

Was greated by hotel manager and they were friendly. But then later found out that they had closed the pool for the season, even though the pool was an indoor pool. We were not happy about that, we booked there because of the pool. The Continental breakfast was cereal and muffins only. Found some else’s hair in our shower. When we went to shower, the water had a slow drain; so you were standing in water. It also looked like the bathtub had not been cleaned. We stayed 4 days there and housekeeper never came in to check or take towels or the garbage.
