This stay was very disappointing. The room was lacking in amenities. There was one stained towel and two coffee pods for two people for two nights. The bathroom was in very rough shape. There was quite the dust bunny collection as well as some trash under the bed. The door had broad daylight coming in all around it which made for a very cold experience considering the weather was down in the single digits. The thermostat on the heater must have been faulty because it would not shut off when it reached the set temperature, so I had to keep getting up throughout the night to turn the thing off and on. I arrived at 6:30pm on Friday, and no one was available in the office. I didn't actually see any staff the whole weekend except for a cleaner who had her little daughter running around the place.

Looking at the previous reviews and website information about Salmon, Id., this property got our attention, so we booked 3 nights. Property and management was not what the previous reviews had mentioned. Upon arrival, I was very much looking forward to meeting Rachel but never did during our stay. Although, Rachel was not around, the staff were friendly. We were also anticipating for an outdoorsy environment, like trees, trails, creeks, and fire pit, as stated and/on property's website, but never happened. Didn't feel safe and the fire pit didn't look usable. Our king size bed unit was small. The website describes plenty of room and the pictures sure looked like a bigger room. Bathroom was even smaller and the floor in front of the shower was rotted. Fan was not working. Lots of bugs including big spiders, flies, and more. Tried getting rid but was impossible.

The property was clean inside, but the smart TV only had limited live TV. The staff was unable reset the TV so I could use my logins for the apps. The driveway needed repair. It was full of holes that made driving difficult.

I had to ask for the coffee pods when I arrived for a two-night stay. I got one regular and one decaf. No resupply for the second morning. I could hear the neighbors talking.

There was a communication problem between Orbitz and the Inn. When we arrived they did not have a reservation for us. I showed my confirmation email and texts. Fortunately they had a cancellation and we were able to get a room.
