I guess if I plan to stay at a place called Dude Rancher Lodge, I kind of get what I deserve! It was a "Cultural Experience!" The shower, toilet and bed were clean and functional. Everything else was 1950s shabby and not very clean. Staff was friendly. Breakfast was huge but not very well prepared.

This hotel is very affordable and has some of the friendliest staff. Rooms are not fancy but they are always clean and have the necessities we need. It is nice that it is close to both the downtown area as well as the clinic.

The staff when we got there was excellent, super friendly. Let us know about the breakfast options for the next day. Room was spotless & fit our needs for the night. We do like sleeping when it's colder. The air conditioning wouldn't come on, although that could have been us being clueless about the thermostat lol.But overall, a great stay. Always somebody on duty. So when we left really early the next morning, we turned in our key and headed out.I would definitely recommend and I would stay there again.
