We arrived late but had called to arrange for keys to be left. The lady was very pleasant. The room was nicely decorated and clean. Some small finishing touches were missing... baseboard along bathroom floor to hide edges of floor etc, but otherwise, beautiful room.
There isn't much in the town/area. For the price, a continental breakfast would have been nice. Checkout was me basically walking to the office and before I could get to the door, a man approaching me for the key. No thank you. No how was everything. Did not appear appreciative of the business.

very clean, good location, easy access to trails and activities.
tub didn’t drain well. one staff member was cranky, but others were friendly.
4.5 / 5.0
The room was in an older building which was much quieter than the very noisy new building where we picked up keys.
The stairs were very worn and tilted to one side but that was ok.
Sink area was outside main bathroom and was spacious.
Stairs could be rebuilt since it was tilted to one side

Wall hooks in the bathroom would help. Bathroom door stuck; someone had screwed a torx head screw part way in and it caused the hinge to bind.

2.5 / 5.0
I liked that it seemed clean and quiet.
No staff on sight and our key was left in a mailbox outside the office. No ice machine in the 2nd location where we stayed and another guest was also not sure where it was. No directions to the ice machine and everything in that area was closed, even the 1 restaurant in the area the next morning. should let guests know what is in the area.
