Alise!

Alise was so incredible at check in. She was wonderfully kind and helpful….I can’t say enough about her and we will come back here for many reasons…large clean rooms, great location, perfect midpoint stop for our travel from CA to ID……but Alise would be another reason for us to stay here again!

We made the reservation only a few hours in advance and checked in late as we’d been driving all day. Christy (sp?) at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was also large and bright and it was nice to shower off after a long, hot drive through NV.

The exterior is a little deceiving based on my first impression i didn't expect the room to be so clean. There was an issue with the first room they gave me in that the key didn't work. They said it was because i demagnitized the key. Not the case when maintenance couldn't open it with their master key. Twenty minutes later and a different room all was good. Front desk, security, and maintenance all very nice and accomidating when i requested a first floor room when i asked at check in. Wasn't crazy about the fact the smoke alarm had been removed from the room. All in all i would stay there again.

The only thing we had a problem with was the A/C was either freezing cold or warm, it didn’t seem to have an in between. The bed was a little firmer than I’d like, but it was still a good bed. They need to do something about the faucets as they were very hard to turn on. The room was one the cleanest rooms I’ve ever stayed in.

good for an adventure if you don’t have allergies

I had to book another hotel because of trash and dust under bed and excessive dog hair on carpet (not from us!) The room could’ve been nice had it been cleaned/ at least vacuumed! It had a charm, albeit an old school charm. It was spacious. The front desk offered to reduce a charge but no room accommodation that matched our “premium” price and booking agreement was offered or granted. There’s an issue with what we booked and what we got. The people in the area/-some in same hotels, some in other hotels— the neighbors were very helpful, which I thought was sweet The neighbors helped us when hotel staff could not In any case, we left for another hotel that night: a huge inconvenience

The staff was very friendly. We knew going in the hotel was older. The furniture was very well 'loved'. It needed a major upgrade/renovation. The outside needed some serious repairs. The cleanliness of the room was fine. We got in late and left early, so only needing a fews hrs to sleep, it was fine.
