Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had some positive aspects like very comfortable beds and having a couch in the room, but unfortunately, the cleanliness was lacking as the toilet and bathtub were not cleaned. On the bright side, there were two queen beds which were spacious and cozy.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable with a very cozy bed, but unfortunately, the toilet and bathtub were not clean. On a positive note, there was a couch in the room, which was nice.
The hotel is conveniently located near many hiking trails in the Savage Gulf area, providing a nice mountain getaway. The rooms offer individual climate control and feature very comfortable beds and couches. However, there were issues with cleanliness as the toilet and bathtub were not properly cleaned.
