Expedia told me my room would be a total of $148.00 I ended up paying $159.00 for one night, when we checked in at 5:00 pm the room had not been cleaned; the bed wasn’t made and dirty wash cloths and towels were all over the floor, they gave us another room; I will not be using Expedia any longer, they lied about the room price!
Hotel was very old, fairly clean, however.. it is on an off road vehicle trail head and most of the occupants were there for that.. loud side by side motors running and racing in parking lot early in the morning and late at night.. Hotel never mentioned this in booking... breakfast was HORRIBLE...The rate I paid for this hotel was RIDICULOUS
Nice, clean room, comfortable bed and pillows and good parking. Service was spotty. Our room was never serviced, we had to go to the front desk and get fresh towels every day. One or both of the room keys did not work every day. The ice machine on the second floor is broken, another trip downstairs.

When we arrived ac was not on in our room(Aug) really hot and didn’t work well took 4hrs to even get comfortable to sleep.
Room was also in the front with lights blinding drapes don’t close all the way and no one told us there was black out curtains that were hidden. Basic hotel breakfast
Pool closed over growth , stained bug residual particles . Very itchy skin all night . Breakfast ok . Air conditioning took all night to cool off room . Only fresh coffee in the morning.
