On October 11, 2025, after a six-hour drive, I arrived at the Summit View Inn at approximately 3:30 p.m. When I entered the code in the keypad for my assigned room, Room #4, I found that it did not work. I phoned the number provided in the email, only to learn that the code would not work until 4:00 p.m., leaving me to sit in the parking lot for half an hour.
Once inside the room, I discovered an issue with the layout. The bed closest to the bathroom was so close to the wall that it made it hard to negotiate the path to the bathroom, especially at night. According to information that I found online, “The dimensions and arrangement of rooms shall be such that there is a minimum of 3 feet (914 mm) between the sides and foot of the bed and any wall or any other fixed obstruction.”
The lighting in the room was inadequate, making it hard to assess cleanliness—though it appeared reasonably clean. The plumbing during our one-day stay also started having issues.
The room that we were assigned was located directly below a family with young children. Due to inadequate sound proofing, we endured listening to young children running back and forth for hours on end. The noise level was such that my friend considered speaking to the guests directly given that no onsite staff was available. In the future, these factors should be taken into consideration when assigning rooms, especially for adult guests seeking rest.
