The gentleman at the front desk was very nice while checking in. That’s the only reason why I gave more than 1 star for the staff. We got the double room number 12 for the family. When we first checked into our room we noticed at least 50 ants crawling all over our toilet. Not including the ones on the wall in the bathroom, or the ones around the room. We quickly brought this to staff and the gentleman said ants must have crawled into the room when they left the front door open while washing dog urine that was in up front of the room. (I say bs!!) They were coming in from the cracks on the walls and elsewhere. We left for a few hours. When we returned, we noticed the staff left a can of ant spray on the toilet along with a rag to I guess wipe up and kill more ants. Looked like they did kill some of the ants. There was ants crawling on that rag and more that we found in the bathroom. We again brought this up to the staff and said this was unacceptable. We’re leavin.We wanted a refund. The guy said all he could do was refund only one of the two days and he’d talk to his boss about the other. So far we haven’t seen anything We never stayed more than 20 minutes in our room. I can’t believe management would thinkthis acceptable for a family to stay in. The pictures online look better than reality. We had some sketchy people staring at us sitting outside of their rooms drinking and smoking cigarettes. The front office is old, dirty, and not presentable. Take your money elsewhere.

The room was clean and the bed was lovely. The view around the back is impressive, and there is a place to sit. Staff were very communicative prior to our arrival. All good and would stay again.

Mixed feelings

The Wifi service is spotty and they only offee streaming services which dropped often. Also, front office is only staffed until 5pm and a majority of the restaurants close by 8 in the area.

Dunsmuir Lodge meets your needs!

Dunsmuir is a beautiful spot and a great place to step back in time. The motel was a bit dated but had everything needed for a short stay. Front desk attendant was friendly and helpful. Surrounding were beautiful with back of the motel having sweeping vistas of the forested hills. We enjoyed our time and had a peaceful night's sleep

Small, quaint family owned hotel with personal service. There are many special touches like nice flower pots, rustic furniture, and more. It is very quiet and clean. They offer a free EV station.
