Really nice staff. Beautiful view from the seventh floor. My room had several lightbulbs out and outlets not working. Also, the corridor outside was pretty dark. Other than that, it was clean and comfortable, and I would stay again.

Have realistic expectations about a hotel this cheap. The place is very old and run down, which you will notice right away. But it's in a fantastic location with everything you need within walking distance. It's also cheap. I have had good experiences here but don't expect a very clean and modern hotel.

Mid week to ski

Mid week 3 night stay to ski Palisades. Easy check in. Clean comfortable room. It is an old hotel, but suited our needs. Great location, easy walk to lake, restaurants & Safeway. Rooms looking a bit tired. Plenty of hot water & comfortable bed. Was very quiet. Only real compliant was the heater was difficult to adjust the temperature. Just seemed to be either on or off
