Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Staff were helpful and accomondating when we had to arrive very late due to flight delay. Breakfast was filling and they had hard boiled eggs. The room didnt have a hairdryer, but it was nice to stay at a local property rather than a generic chain hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness
Cute layout. Very spacious. Privacy was not as expected. Could not open the windows for fear of the dog and men behind our room, who had a tent setup for the Fire and Ice service sauna. I was not able to enjoy solitude because of the talking up until 9 pm. Bummer. The GFI outlet in the bathroom stopped working. Had to use the ONE outlet by the bed above the fridge. Bummer. Parking was hard. Thank goodness we had a small Crosstrek rental. Bummer. Lady in the lobby through a fit over polital views. That was a total BUMMER. However, The trails were top rating, and even though all the negatives were explained, I think I would still come back.
