If I could give this place 10 stars I would! This place is a hidden gem! The staff was so friendly, the rooms were great, there is free laundry that included soap to use, it is close to the National Parks, and there is also cookie time from 3:30pm-4:30pm! Breakfast is not included, but the cafe is right next door to the inn that has some delicious coffee/food!! If I am ever back in the area, I will be staying here again! Thank you so much!

Excellent i

From check-in to checkout everything was excellent! The accommodations were excellent. The hotel went above and beyond with board games, fire pit, free video games, cookies and milk, great pool and the staff was excellent. The restaurant, although only open for breakfast and lunch was also excellent. I want to thank the owners and would highly recommend this hotel to friends and family!

The hotel is cute, has cute updated decor, but some of the bones (i.e.carpet, fixtures) are old. The lady who checked us in was friendly and quickly got us another room when we had a problem. I always check beds and bathrooms when checking in any hotel/airbnb for cleanliness. When I pulled back the comforter to check the sheets, I found lots of hair all over the fitted sheet and the sheet was wrinkled. Obviously hadn’t been changed. I immediately let the receptionist know and she was quick to message the owner while we waited. This was about 9:40pm. The owner responded with wanting to know how long ago we had checked in, which made me immediately anxious about how they would handle this. However, we did get another room assigned and other than the hassle of getting our stuff moved when we were tired after driving 9 hours. The new room was clean. The bed was a cheaper foam and not the worst, but definitely could be better. All in all it was, after getting things taken care of, ok but probably wouldn’t stay there again.
