Check in experience was awful, on second floor, whether we used the elevator or not stairs were not avoidable. The shower/bath faucet was horrible, I don’t know how you can get a shower faucet wrong but good luck trying to turn the water on and off and trying not to burn yourself.

SPIDERS….The outside door to our room (parking lot side for first floor rooms) was covered with hundreds of small spider eggs in webs around the door in the vinyl siding….These conditions do not get this way overnight….Bathroom fixtures were “spotted” with who knows what….Lack of housekeeping was very obvious….Would NEVER stay here again and would NEVER recommend this facility to anyone….

Pet friendly! Staff always friendly, courteous and helpful! We loved the eclectic breakfast buffet...the elk chili was delightful. A varienty of breads, cereals and the hard boiled egg station. Was very sufficient for us! Coffee and tea always available in lobby. The building is a little dated, but it was doable. We stayed three nights.
