Awesome hotel. Will be back.
Cheaper than Motel 6, nicer than most mid-range hotels I’ve stayed in. I’ve got a service-dog, but the hotel is also pet-friendly and many relief areas are easy to access.
Total fluke I booked here. Happy accident. Will be back now.
The “Mountain View” listed in rooms is technically there, but barely. Giggle-worthy when i realized it from my downstairs room.

A great room for the price! New shower was great!
Newly remodeled and clean. Kurig coffee maker was easy to use and quick for 2 cups. Friendly staff. Easy access. Plenty of parking in the lot, just outside the room. Comfortable bed and good room temp on a cold winter night. Good WIFI.

They said freshly remodeled. Yes new stuff tv, retro mini fridge and microwave but it was so bad. We had 2 rooms for 3 people. Both rooms had so many issues. Our room had no power to the outlets. So couldnt charge anything. Only 1 plug in the entire room worked. We had no lights except for one over the bed. So going to the bathroom was fun in pitch black. The sheets weren't changed. So started off doing that right away. Thanks for making the bed though with dirty sheets. Room smelled so bad of weed had to leave the door open just to sit in it. Crap stains in and on toilet. Super lovely. Boards literally falling off the walls behind the bed. Thanks for the new big tv. Wish my room had power though so i could use it. And lastly and most amazing i appreciated having no hot water. All this to be explained to your manager who seemed to not believe these things could be wrong as they rent this room every night. Thanks for being extremely rude and disbelieving. Absolutely awful place. Worse manager. Thankfully 1 bright thing. The new guy who checked us in was nice. So good job on that. Would recommend finding any where else to stay. Also if the new owner see's this. Please get a better contractor. The one you hired is absolutely awful. Go look at room 105. Youll see

Very ecclectic style reminiscent of 1950's. The accent mirror that reminded me of Elvis's stage suit with rhinestones was a bit strange. But clean and workable if you did not mind the old pink tub with all the scratches etc. It was clean. The only awkward part was lack of lighting and it seemed like the light for the bathroom with fan was now outside in the hallway, which was not very good overall with the renovations. Staff was very friendly and gave good recommendation for a nice restaurant within walking distance.

Did not end up staying there. Dirty lobby smelled like smoke. They couldn’t check mr in due to computer issues. Paid for a different hotel to not stay there. It looks abandoned from the outside.

Stayed here for one night since I had an early flight in the morning. The room was spacious and clean and the location was excellent. The front desk staff were lovely and gave us some good recommendations for restaurants.

Honestly, it's shocking to read the reviews that say the rooms here "match the photos." Our room did not. It was dingy and dark. The floors were dirty. The lighting was poor. There was an underlying odor of mold and cigarettes. Chips in the paint and plaster. Loose facet in the sink. There was a sack of garbage and about six empty microwave boxes stacked up outside our door, too.
The ice machine in the "Vending / Ice / Coin Laundry Room" is half-dismantled, and when we asked for ice at the front desk, we were told it was in the chest cooler in the lobby..."with the body." This might have been funny if it didn't seem like a real possibility.
Every time another guest opened or closed a door, the entire building shook. We could hear everything through the walls. We barely slept.
I appreciate what the owners are trying to do here—and the location is good—but I think we would've had a better night's sleep in our car.

The room needed some more finishing touches and it would be perfect. Was told by receptionist that he and his wife had recently took over ownership. Lots of remodeling done. The updated finish work really shows the retro theme that this hotel exhibits. Priced accordingly. Walking distance from everything. Lots of parking. Easy access to my room. I had a great stay.

The rooms was adorable but the floor was a little dirty and the tub did not drain well. Other than that, it was a good place to stay.
