Nasty place

Place was very dated which I expected. Unfortunately it was also very dirty. My grandsons white socks were filthy on the bottoms from the room. We were planning to stay 2 nights but I couldn’t do it. When we got up in the morning everything in the room was wet I suppose from sweating. Beds were very uncomfortable. I would not recommend this place unless you like roughing it.

Only coffee and pastries for breakfast, hotel restaurant closed (alternatives miles away), antiquated room, all made much worse by expectations driven by the 8.6 rating on Expedia. Note, plan to ignore Expedia ratings in the future, this was one in a string of stays that their ratings were inflated.

Very nice staff. Floor in room wasn’t very clean. Bedspreads seemed old and one was torn. Lots of people smoking right outside their rooms which filters into your room (if your door opens to outside). I would probably return though.

I've never stayed in a place like this so haven't submitted a poor review before. Let me first say that the check in process went smooth and quick. However, the lady who checked us in was not friendly at all, did not smile and was not welcoming. She could have been having a bad day, so grace is given. However, being in customer service, you're at least pleasant when customers come to your business. The room was horrible. This is an old ski lodge which we knew when we reserved the room and it's very basic. The beds were more like doubles instead of queens and were very uncomfortable. The pillows were old. The floors were filthy and we had to wear our shoes while walking around the room, as food crumbs and long hair were sticking to our feet. There were potato chip crumbs in the corners of the bathroom and dust on the furniture and air conditioner. It looked like the room hadn't been cleaned since before the last occupants stayed in that room. I do say the sheets had been changed, the bathroom cleaned (except the floors) and the counters wiped down. Needless to say, we will not be returning to the Skyline Lodge.

I rarely leave bad reviews, but this motel was beyond disappointing. The building is extremely outdated — it looks like it hasn’t been renovated since the 1970s. Everything feels old, dirty, and neglected. The room smelled musty and the furniture looked like it came from a garage sale. The bathroom was in terrible shape — cracked tiles, rust on the fixtures. I didn’t feel safe or comfortable staying here. It’s not worth it. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Spend a few extra dollars and go somewhere decent. This place needs a serious renovation or should just be shut down.
