3/5 - Okay
Upon check-in I told the clerk that I wanted to pay with cash, but he insisted that I provide him with a credit/debit card. This put a strain on my checking account. He wouldn't accept cash.

Clean, comfortable

The hotel was OK for the price. The breakfast was excellent! The pool was too small.

A nice small hotel with great cookies on check in. Perfect for our needs. Location is easily accessible from the highway. Comfortable rooms and good breakfast

Horrible experience. No contact from host. Had to use VRBO customer service to get ahold of her. Ended up getting money back for the stay.

Centralized location for hunting
Ponderay has all of the amenities that one would need while traveling. Full service town close to sand point and Schweitzer too. I even went to the movies.
Went there for a soccer tourney and it’s a lovely town!
Sandpoint was lovely to walk around the downtown and beach area. Didn't explore Ponderay, but appeared to be more spread out like a suburb.
Love that is close to Sandpoint
