Our room was supposed to be non smoking but smelled heavily of smoke. That is my main complaint. It was close enough to the National Park. Breakfast was fine.

Broken equipment scattered throughout the hotel, peeling paint, entire lobby reeks of pot, food and trash all over the hallways and stairwells, got no sleep both nights because of extremely loud guests going up and down the hallway that the staff finally did something about at 3 am on the second night. Absolutely worst hotel stay I’ve ever had anywhere. I’m pissed off that I actually paid them to stay in this garbage place for two nights.
Half the lamps in the room were on their last legs it looked like a thrift store haul
Three days this equipment didn’t move.
Screws sticking out poking my hand when I went to turn the handle.
Completely missing door handle.

The front desk staff was super friendly, helpful, and understanding. However the hotel is almost uninhabitable. Many of the rooms the doors were broken. I tried three different t rooms. Once o got one the a/c unit was broken. They must be short staff cause rooms were not even clean. Because I prepaid I had to see it through which makes me second guess prepaying moving forward. I would have definitely went to a different hotel.

No towels in the room. Was told by front desk they had no towels left in the hotel. Had to wait until next morning to get towels. Room itself was poorly laid out. The AC unit was filthy, and we found chicken bones when attempting to use the pull out couch. The property itself looked quite dated. And everything felt dirty when you touched it. I was actually amazed that the breakfast included was somewhat decent, after our room experience.

This hotel should NOT be available on Expedia. The back door doesn't even lock and the evening attendant told us that she is always chasing out people that don't belong in the hotel. The back parking lot is completely dark with homeless people hanging around. The entire hotel smells like cigarette smoke, the carpet is dirty and threadbare. The girl that checked us in announced our room number to several other guests and never even asked for our I.D. We didn't end up staying because of how terrible the conditions were. We left and drove another 1.5 hours north to find another hotel. DO NOT STAY HERE.
