"This was a nicely furnished, clean, surprisingly inexpensive and friendly hotel, perfect for a one-night stay for travelers (in our case, a couple with a medium-sized dog), easy access off and on I-80. Quiet, and plenty of pleasant outdoor walking space for the humans and the dog … the nearby Mexican restaurant (not a chain!!) is really pretty good … "

"Quick and easy check in! Great staff!"

"Free parking and close to downtown core. "

"Room was small "

"Love everything about this place! Except we waited for over an hour to just get into the hot tub because there were like 12 teenagers in there, so we waited until after 10pm because the front desk told us only people over the age of 21 were allowed in the pool area after 10. When we got down there about 10:15 and all of the teenagers were still in there. Sucked we could relax before bed. Everything else was great. I recommend the Rancher's Retreat room. "

"This is a beautiful hotel conveniently located in downtown. The bed and shower were both luxurious. Many great restaurants nearby. My husband liked the pool table in the lobby. The only downside was having to go to the parking garage, which was a long walk into the next door building and two flights of stairs away. There was a lot of construction when we visited (April 2025) which is temporary. Overall a good experience."

"Our stay was amazing we loved the bar and breakfast."

"Front desk personnel are so helpful and friendly."

"Essy access both to the hotel and to the room. Close to amenities"
