Great breakfast! Make sure to get a remodeled room

I stayed two separate nights, before and after my backpacking trip. The first night was great! Friendly service, room seem to be remodeled, most comfortable bed and sheets ever! Great experience. When I came back to stay a second night, the woman working set me to a room that already had people in it. When I went back down to figure out the mixup, she didn’t even apologize or acknowledge me. She gave me room 251 and it was supposed to be 215. When I finally got back to my room after hauling my stuff twice down and up stairs, it was less than stellar. The bathroom was not updated. The entire faucet handle comes off in your hand. There was an old school blow dryer holder on the wall but no blow dryer. Neighbors behind the headboard were extremely loud. Bed was still very comfortable and amazingly soft sheets. I recommend trying to get a remodeled room if you stay here. Hopefully they start upgrading all rooms soon. The breakfast spread is pretty great!

Convenient, worth what we paid

Check in was good. Room was clean. Beds comfy. BUT…the walls are thin, and our room connected to marijuana smokers so our room smelled horrible! We stuck towels under the doors. This is a no smoking hotel. Thank goodness the a/c had a loud fan that stayed on so it muffled the sounds from next door. Breakfast is interesting with basic breads, cereals, yogurt, and then there’s the Elk green chili with toppings like onion, peppers, etc. The staff paid close attention to cleanliness and made the place so neat and clean. So…do I recommend this hotel? Sure. It’s about as cheap as you can get for the area. The three of us managed well!

The staff is amazing. Tim, Javeia, the GM, Chip made me feel like one of the family. The room with a balcony was bright. They are working on numerous upgrades. Price is reasonable. The breakfast is awesome. They had homemade green chili with Elk bits and many healthy and traditional options.

Thumbs down

Warning: this is not handicap location. No form or fashion. It was dated. Breakfast was marginal. Bed was pretty good, room was pretty clean. Not handicap although it did have a small walk-in shower (no safety bars)

Great little spot. Super convenient location and they are doing a lot of renovations. Unfortunately the shower was pretty gross and not clean. We liked how the rooms all have hardwood floors now and the game room was a nice addition. Staff was super nice!

Liked: Cleanliness
I felt the room was comfortable and clean. However, I felt like the breakfast could have been a little better. Also, it was difficult to get our luggage to the second floor. We never found an easy way to use the elevator without having to still carry our luggage up/down some stairs. Fortunately, a staff member saw our dilemma and carried our bags down the stairs for us. Weird!
