It's a good, clean room, an excellent location, affordable rates. It's nothing too fancy, but it's a great option. The front desk was exceptionally friendly at check-in. And the view from the room was of the mountains and water, it was very nice.

The Drake inn is a little bit old but its maintenance is good. The staffs are awesome, very seeet, specifically the lovely lady who works from 5pm to 10pm. Also, the included parking is what makes it stressful free. It’s close to town, where its walkable to restaurants, shops, and trails.

The room was large and clean. The staff was very nice and helpful. The location is superb. The on-site restaurant was a good value. The drawback to The Drake is that restaurant is very noisy with live music and karaoke extending until midnight. One’s only recourse is to shut the windows and there’s no A/C. As much as I liked the place otherwise I’d never stay there again.
