The property was good for a one night stay. The heating unit took some figuring out but rest of the stay was pleasant. All amenities were good and the room was clean and pleasant. The check-in process was smooth, it didn’t offer breakfast that was the only thing we felt was missing rest everything was perfect! Would definitely stay again

Super easy check in- they even text to check in if they notice you have not checked in yet and it’s getting late. The water pressure for the shower was spot on. The room was super cleaned and very inviting. I ran into two staff members because I was trying to call while in the office to see if I can grab a sugar creamer packet- they were super friendly. We will be for staying here again!!

Where to start?? Trail Inn is a nicely remodeled, old-style, roadside motel. I have never had a check-in experience like this... Received a number code in a text. When checking in to the unmanned motel office, the number code was entered into a touch screen and the room key then dispensed. Ice buckets and dog treats are available in the office. The motel sign, out front, was being replaced so we almost missed it. This was a new one, but not a bad experience.
