Overall I think it's a good hotel to stay for a night. Of course, it doesn't have all the amenities that other big hotels have. However, at least for my husband and I, we think it's ok. I also had to do late check-in but gladly I didn't run into issues like others had.

This property is very much like out of Schitts Creek. The office appeared closed so I drove further past looking for maybe another office and a guy whistled loudly at me to come back. I turned around and parked. He checked me into the motel and gave me room # and key. Upon entering the room it had ripped curtains held together with one of those refrigerator clips. The floor had a strange slant to it. There was no hot water in the sink. But I finally got some hot water at the tub faucet so I could wash my face. I would have left but it was late and all I wanted to do was sleep and get up early to hit the slopes. The only good thing was the bed was comfortable and the other neighboring rooms were quiet.

Property has seen better days. Nice location. We arrived about 7:30 and checkin area looked dark. I rang the bell and the 'receptionist' handed me a key, pointed toward the room, and showed me where to return the key in the AM. The room size was pretty big with a long countertop near the bathroom. But, couldn't get any hot water in the shower. They had wifi, but no information on the password. Some tiles in bathroom were on floor and in need of repair. Heat worked well, we heard a couple of 'crashes' off the roof at night--nots what they were. .

Motel is clean and cared-for, but definitely from the 60's-70's. Imagine the motel in Schitt's Creek. I am fine with that, but anyone should know it's not modern. Stayed overnight for two ski days; plenty of room to spread out, plenty of hot water, bed was adequately firm. Recommend for the price.

Had to call and ask for salt to be spread on the sidewalk outside the door to control the dangerous ice. Hot water took a VERY long time to get to the bathroom sink and shower. Noticed the U.S. flag was completely ripped. That flag is not serviceable and should have been replaced before it reached that state.

I pulled up and the property looked abandoned. It had snowed the night before, and at 5:00pm when I arrived, the driveway was still not plowed. It was difficult to determine which door was the reception area, and there were no lights on. It was also apparent I would have been the only guest. Basically the whole place was sketchy and made me very uncomfortable. I had pre-paid for the room through expedia with a requirement to cancel a day or two before arrival for a refund. But how can I be held to that since I did arrive with the intention to stay, but only after seeing this place did I want to cancel for my own safety ? To their credit, the person checking me in, when I expressed my concerns, said they would not hold me to the reservation and would refund my money. They said the credit would have to be managed through Expedia though, and they would approve it. This is not what happened. The Manager of the property whom I later spoke with basically refused to honor what their employee committed to. Effectively they stole the money from me as I did not use their services, but they kept my money. The place is old and run down, but the price reflects that. I was not expecting a 5 star establishment, but I would have expected at the very least, a safe environment. This place and the people running this place are to be avoided.
