There were people outside my window. Barking dogs. No privacy when the weather was so nice.

Liked: Cleanliness
Cute layout. Very spacious. Privacy was not as expected. Could not open the windows for fear of the dog and men behind our room, who had a tent setup for the Fire and Ice service sauna. I was not able to enjoy solitude because of the talking up until 9 pm. Bummer. The GFI outlet in the bathroom stopped working. Had to use the ONE outlet by the bed above the fridge. Bummer. Parking was hard. Thank goodness we had a small Crosstrek rental. Bummer. Lady in the lobby through a fit over polital views. That was a total BUMMER. However, The trails were top rating, and even though all the negatives were explained, I think I would still come back.

I have stayed there several times. Always good. It is rustic and dated but convenient and has its own charm. I would certainly go again but maybe not for some people looking for very high end facility.

Almost perfect...

This place is adorable and in such an amazing location, but the thin walls make it a nightmare for light sleepers like myself :( I wish I could report differently! I could hear the entire conversations of the people next door to me (as in it felt like they were in the same room), including being woken up at 3:30am when they got home and talked / moved around their room for the next hour. If FOTMM are somehow able to fix this there will be no stopping this hotel, it's truly special!

Could be cleaner. The room smelled liked cigarettes and the bath tub was stained. The sheets were stained. But that’s okay, we had a really good time and the area was so beautiful, it was a nice stay and I would definitely come back.

I like the funkiness of the motel. It is 90 years old and in a pretty, quiet part of town. However, it seems that there has been limited maintenance, in the last decades. There are also no drawers in which to put clothing and personal items. The shower and shampoos and soaps looked so undesirable that my wife and I didn’t even bother showering there.
