Disliked: Staff & service
We booked a night stay here and the hotel was inaccessible from either point of entry of the road it sits on due to the state closing the road for a forest fire. I called the hotel early the day of when I saw the warning on the GPS and they confirmed we could still access their hotel and the road was closed "a few miles up from them". We drove 20 miles towards the property only to find that the road was closed 16 miles before we could get to the hotel. Nothing changed on the DOT website for where the road was closed from the morning so the staff was just uninformed. I called again and told them there was no way to get to them and requested to cancel and refund. The staff wasn't super friendly or even empathetic. Customer service could have gone a long way here. They cancelled but refused a refund, which was mind bogglign considering they were inaccessable for another 24 hrs. No servies/stay were rendered and we're expected to pay? When hurricanes hit and businesses need to close, they don't still charge people services. Its the cost of doing business. Its unforunate a company is unwilling to do the right thing in these situations.

Is ok for very minimalist. No amenities (no coffee, microwave, fridge etc) and washer/dryers do not work. Understaffed with what appeared to be one person running food and lodging. Did appear to be clean.

Overall our stay was good. Ate dinner at the restaurant attached to lodge. Pizza was good. Staff very friendly, but they seemed short staffed to cover all areas. TVs in room don't work, so don't expect too much.

Lots of junk lying around the property. Rooms were clean but need updating. Toilet seat was about to fall off. On the upside, our server (Hunter Sitzes) in the restaurant took great care of us. The restaurant was out of most everything we wanted but he and his female helper made our experience enjoyable with their cheerful, upbeat selves.

It was a cheap place to stay on its last leg. The bed was broken and the mattresses were very old and dirty. The pillows were barely there. The overall property was not maintained or updated. The staff was nice and accommodating. The amenities like coffee bar, laundry facilities and WiFi were VERY limited. No coffee, only one washer and dryer that worked that everyone had to wait for. We were barely able to use our phones with the WiFi and weren’t able to use the tv at all because of the WiFi connection.
