The staff did not refill the shower gel and shampoo dispensers. Unfortunately, I didn't learn this until I was already in the shower.

Very clean, comfortable, and well-heated room, more spacious than we expected and with beautiful views of snow-capped mountains. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Breakfast was tasty and had lots of options. Super stoked we were able to use their hot tub during winter season. Very happy we chose to stay there!

Not a bad hotel, but there are quite a few areas that are easy to improve that would make it significantly better. The room was cleanish, but there were lots of areas that had obviously hadn’t been cleaned in some time. They also need to put some effort into maintenance- pretty much everywhere you look were chunks of paint missing or gouged in the walls. The “free breakfast” was toast, bagels, cereal…all carbs, no eggs, bacon, or sausage. The front desk staff were very friendly, and it is in a good area.

Staff tried to tell me how Expedia operates, shower head and bath head barely worked. It was an alright stay but I wouldn’t stay there again. The tv didn’t work either and half the power outlets were broken. Can’t wait til the hotel at the casino opens. Would rather sleep in a tent than stay at this hotel again.

I don't really know why this hotel had such a good rating. It's just a basic motel. It's very clean - that's a plus - and the staff were very helpful and friendly. But it's old. My room was so cold and the wall heater didn't help much. The bathtub was missing a drain plug. It worked, but I didn't think it was worth the price I paid.

The staff were very friendly. Check in was easy, there were plenty of cable channels to choose from. It was relatively clean, the beds were the only odd thing. One was really comfortable and the other was pretty hard. Overall we would come back for sure. Breakfast was convenient, parking was plentiful, it was a perfect place for a family. Thank you!
