We asked for a 1st floor since we traveled with my son's bike to college that we needed unload for the night....the only room available was room that the key card lock wouldn't work on the door...we could never get it opened ourselves...we had to have front desk staff open it up...after we ate dinner and came back to the room..we couldn't get in the room and waited for the front desk person for 15 minutes while he came back from another property...also both the sink and tub backed up with water...we stood in 6 to 8 inches of water when we took a shower....probably won't be back

A great place to stay for the night with large rooms! We have traveled thru this area multiple times in the last 5 years and never remotely thought about staying the night here but it was perfect for us this year! Checking in later than normal to be up on our way early so no breakfast wasnt a problem for us - McDonalds nearby was a huge plus for our granddaughters.

The room was quiet and the bed was comfortable. We had room to park our U-Haul. There was a view of the mountains from our room on the backside of the hotel. Nice gentleman checked me in.

The room with the refrigerator and microwave had no lightbulb in the socket or a complete surround. The rooms have very thin walls, the stairs to the upper levels are very narrow and steep, unsafe.

Surprised about the size of the room, it was very open. Very clean room with modern decor. Tub was the only thing not upgraded, but was fine.

Won't be back

1. Broken security features on the door. 2. Could dead bolt the door but it would not close all the way. 3. Closet dowel missing. Had no place to hang out clothes. 4. The beds are like a rocks, so uncomfortable. 5. Room next to us had their window opened, smoked pot repeatedly both days we stayed. The ac units pulled that air into our room.

Driving across states and needing just to sleep and brush your teeth, this place will do for the price. Traveling with our dog we were happy they allowed pets. Rooms are not carpeted a plus. Some sort of illicit activities going on next door was unsettling. Nothing for food within walking distance.
