The rooms and pool were great. We had a couple of issues. They have free breakfast but only ON WEEKENDS - important to know if you’re traveling during the week. Also they have laundry but it’s coin operated and the manager wasn’t there so we couldn’t buy quarters - they may want to switch to the card operated kind of allow their other employees access to the coins.

I'd stay again for sure

This was my first time I've stayed in a conversation center hotel. I was impressed. It looked the same in the photos too. My room was bigger then I had expected expecally for the price. Over the weekend was a convention with the people attending parting till dawn I only knew this because I had to leave my room, it was that quiet in the room. All in all the staff was great the room very clean and it was a comfortable and quiet stay. I do however wish the bar was open and there were vending or some kinda late night munchie place on site.

Unique architecture of the interior of the hotel. Coffee shop on site. Outdoor seating with fire pits was nice. Room was quiet and clean however there was no fridge. Bed comfort was ok. Cons: We called twice to notify front desk of late arrival. No one answered phone or returned call as requested. At check in we seemed to have difficulty communicating clearly with clerk. She spoke very quietly and did not provide any direction just handed us our keys.

What a joke. Lounge and all restaurants were all closed due to ‘low occupancy’. I wasn’t notified of this and the closest place we found to eat at was a bar/grill 5 miles away. All ice machines were out of order. Requested a blanket for the bed several times, got none. Front desk lady was rude and didn’t care about anything except her phone. Complete waste of my money.

Include Breakfast when making Reservations.

Accomodations were fine. I chose location because I am familiar with the area. Room for one was comfortable, very clean .. the two upholstered chairs were shabby and worn. Room I had was over rooftop ( with HVAC systems but noise was not a problem and I wasn't staying for a view. Staff friendly, easy check in and out. I was given a complimentary breakfast when I inquired because the area was clean, inviting and variety of breakfast items appealing. Highly recommend including breakfast in reservation!

I don’t remember the man who helped check us in, but he was so awesome.. We ended up staying here b/c my daughter was supposed to race in the AFT Royal Enfield Race in Wheatland, but due to the weather her race was canceled. So we are from Washington state and totally out of our element, but the staff member was extremely helpful. We definitely would recommend and stay again!!! 💕

It was fairly quiet and close to our destination. Easy check-in and checkout. We couldn't find a working ice machine. The restaurant and bar were never open. The room had a bit of a funky odor and we had to keep the a/c set at 60 to keep the room comfortable. Overall our stay wasn't intolerable but there's room for improvement.
