Its a hidden gem . The laundry was right across from my room which made it very easy. The bed was comfortable , and the room was very clean. It was a refreshing change from some other motels.
The owner/manager did everything: checked people, fixed broken equipment and cleaned the rooms. He was always available

Sometimes you get what you pay for, but in this case the accommodations are much better than the price. If you are on a budget it is great.

It’s a very nice place
The rooms are very nice. Parking is right outside your door which makes it nice to bring things in. The people are very friendly. They have a awesome coffee machine that I liked. Anything bad that I have to say is I went to the office one time and ring the bell, but nobody came, but other than that, it’s a nice place to stay

Great location and views.
Convenient downtown location with beautiful mountain views. Close to shopping, dining, and ski resorts.
Unfortunately, no breakfast is served.

Decent lower budget option
Check-in went surprisingly well, considering the desk clerk spoke absolutely no english. However, quickly called someone to translate and it went very efficiently. Room feels recently spruced up but room is dated. I felt i was in a clean, safe, inexpensive motel ans it was much nicer than similar ventage places.

Great little hotel at a great price with parking a few feet from your door. Pet fee only $15 for the stay (not per day) with nice grassy area to take them out. Friendly staff, restaurant on site, easy walking distance to other rooms, nice covered outdoor sitting area with grill, sink, etc...
