Very cool lodge

A very clean hotel. The location was good. The room was beautiful, it was a loft room with a porch. The outside patio was good and had a beautiful view. There is only one bed and we were 4 so that was a slight problem. But the main problem was that the bathroom door doesn’t close and it has a big gap so it was a little uncomfortable. But I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

The hotel felt like a ghost down. Had an bar in the lobby that wasnt open, and had an beautiful patio( with fire pits) that had lights off at night. Felt like these things would've added a positive vibe to the experience. Hotel breakfast felt very limited on options. Bathroom barn door doesnt close all the way( had a inch gape between wall and door ). Besides these things the sat was On the bright side. Beds are comforble. Shower had good water pressure, large screen t.v. with cable. Fridge and microwave on room

Very nice place at a great price. Nothing fancy, but clean and a nice location. Only slight downside was that mattress was not very comfortable, but it wasn’t a big deal. The Mexican restaurant in town didn’t look all that impressive, but it was really good.

Do not stay here!! You’ve been warned.

This is an old place that had some cheap cosmetic upgrades. Says they have a spa, not open yet. Says they have a bike rental, lie. Shows an open bar, no bartender. Says continental breakfast, waffle, cereal, breakfast bar, and muffin. Make sure you only take one oj or milk or you might get yelled at according to a sign where the milk and oj was. This place needs to reduce their room price to 40-60 a night. Not $145 we paid. We will never be back EVER.
