This was hands down one of the worst hotel stays I’ve ever had. The room was filthy — clearly hadn’t been dusted in ages, with stained walls, holes and hair in the sheets, and a gas fireplace that didn’t even work. The baseboards and towel rack were literally coming off the walls, and the bathtub didn’t drain, so I was forced to shower in standing water. It was disgusting. I felt grimy just staying there and couldn’t wait to leave the next morning. When I brought everything up at checkout, the front desk didn’t apologize or show any concern — just said, “we’ll get the tub unclogged.” That’s it. This place needs a complete overhaul and better management. Save yourself the disappointment (and the feeling of needing another shower after your shower) and stay somewhere else.

Dated Hotel and Not Clean

The hotel lobby was about the only nice part of the Pocaterra Inn and Waterslide hotel. Hotel rooms were dated, dirty, and in disrepair. The rooms were not quiet either and you could hear those in the rooms next to yours and above yours. Would not stay at this hotel again.

Balcony offered nice view of mountains, and you could just step outside to cool off if needed. Breakfast was great. Hotel staff knew very little about the area and couldn't offer much advice on hiking trails or anything. Oh, I was surprised to see rainbow (gay) flags flying at the lobby desk. I don't recall seeing that on their website.

The breakfast option was below the average, also the fixture and furniture were pretty old, next day while taking bath the shower produced a sharp noise when water is running and it remains till our last day in the room. We wanted to change the room but due to our luggage size we have decided to stay in the same room.
