Great location, decent value.

Location is great! Right across the road is a fantastic view of the mountains and a big waterfall (when there's enough snowmelt or rain). The property looks a bit aged, but they keep the rooms updated and we'll furnished. Not sure if all the rooms have a mini kitchen in them, but ours did. Beds were a bit softer than what I normally sleep on at home, but still very comfortable. There's also an indoor hot tub and sauna attached to the main building. We were only there for one night but had an enjoyable stay.

Individualized approach

The motel staff were very accommodating. As someone with allergies to chemical scents, including detergents, I appreciated the efforts the manager took to ensure my room was allergy free.

Fairly quiet, I’m guessing most other guests are skiers or here for outdoor activities. Clean and very convenient to have dishes, fridge, and microwave. It’s not fancy at all, the rooms are definitely older but for the cost, convenience, quietness and safety it was all that we needed

Overall the property was clean; however, majorly outdated, even for mountain accommodations. It needs a facelift, for sure. Good location short drive to June and Silver Lakes.

The location of the hotel is good. The staff was nice to show me how to get the key as I arrived. The room was not new but clean. Big king-size bed was comfortable. No weird smell in the room. I was satisfied with what I paid.

Great Little Place

Great location. 5 minutes from the Lifts (by car). Quiet. We arrived and the key was taped to the window, which was a bit strange, but everything worked out. Room had a nice kitchennette nook with a microwave, keurig (some keurigs provided). Door locks from the outside. Warm and cozy. No problems at all.

The place was relatively clean, but the bed was terrible, i.e. you sank and your partner rolled toward you if you moved. We never met anyone at the property and our key was taped to the office door.

Bed bugs, filthy - Please don't go.

Absolutely horrible hotel room. Please do not book here if you want peace of mind and keep your family safe! Family dealt with bed-bugs and there is no response / support from on-site management. Other pathetic state of the hotel: Spa was out of propane (who knows if that's an excuse). Towels were dirty, Lamp shade was torn, Kitchen light wasn't working...Pathetic and please save your well being and money by not going here!

It was sufficient for a night but won't stay there again.The front desk was never open, just a phone number posted in case of emergency; The chairs in the bedroom area were about the fall apart; The toilet brush was just sitting on the floor not in a holder; The kitchen floor had a bubble, like the floor underneath was not in good shape; The stairs going up to the 2nd floor were wobbly as they were partially rusted and only attached by 3 bolts at the top; The sign in the kitchen said you will be charged $35 for any unwashed dishes; Loud trucks of the hunters and fishermen leaving at 3am and 5am; Nothing in walking distance.

Management was friendly and bed was clean and comfortable. However, the facility is run down with a lot of smaller issues, ie missing knobs on lamp, drawer and wall heater, dirty heating vents, missing baseboards, hole in the wall with cable curled up inside, lack of caulking by the tub, old curtain rods that are no longer being used, door lock that is problematic to use, outdoor furniture and cushions askew, lack of urgency to unclog a toilet (mentioned twice before action was taken), room entrance code was provided in an unsealed envelope taped to the office door with my name on it for check-in. No towel bars in the bathroom only hand grips for handicap toilet use.

Good location for accessing June Loop lakes. Nice restaurant across the street. Property is dated and could use some upgrades. Many of the windows were locked. Without air conditioning, the rooms got hot. Needs more ventilation on hot days.
