Where do I start. I booked this room six months ahead of the trip. You would think I would get a decent room (three rooms actually) but I was stuck in an annex. With no elevator. On the third floor. No ice machine. Long hairs in the bathtub. Coffee packet was there, but it was missing the coffee maker. Not even next door to the main lodge, it was two doors down. Not at all happy.

Puffin was OK ...Travelocity was a complete failure and I will never consider using them again. the motel was not paid for the room by Travelocity and my crew was just lucky we ended up with a room. Just a lousy outfit.

I liked nothing about it. Something was stolen from my room and after three days of being lied to I checked out. Management still had not looked into it or check the security cameras. It was 5 days before my room was cleaned the first time.

Hello, We apologize for what happened during your stay. I don't believe anyone had lied to you, just a miscommunication between out staff. We will work hard on fixing this issue.

The front desk was overwhelmed and there were no people in the lobby. My room wasn’t ready until 5. My wake up call was a 1/2 late. Front desk not very helpful.

I like being near Hood Lake. Spotless bathroom with nice large shower. Sheets were a bit on the rough side (thread count on the lower side).
