Pros:

Don’t judge a book… from the road this hotel looked run down but it was one of the best of our trip! The back entrance deck has a hot tub, plants, hummingbird feeders, comfortable couches, etc. the room was huge with a microwave and fridge. The continental breakfast had excellent coffee and fresh juice, yogurt and pastries that must have been from a local bakery… no Sara Lee here! The owner, Joe is a wonderful person. Would definitely stay again!

Pros:

Appreciated the friendly helpful check-in staff -- especially help in getting luggage to the room. (Even the ground level rooms require use of stairs.) The room was spacious but pretty worn. The AC was noisy, but eventually got the room cooled down. The breakfast is a grab and go cold bar -- but has some thoughtful options. It's over-priced for the age, condition, and features of the hotel.

Pros:

When I booked it was supposed to be a condo and it turns out it was a motel, so you really need to watch Expedia they will trick you, who pays 280 Night for a motel!!! But the owner was very nice and it was clean. But there was no pool and the Jacuzzi was not working. That was very disappointing cause there nothing like chillin in the mountains in the pools and Jacuzzi in the evenings. I would really want some money back and I'm going to try n pursue that.

Perfect spot in town
Pros:

Comfy beds and friendly staff. Perfect spot right in town and a little AC perfect for out of towners. Not many channels to watch after a days ending but the unique little hot tub helped recover the muscles from a long hike.
