Beds were great. Location is great. Not cleaned well. Brown gunk came out of plumbing so couldn’t drink the water and made me wonder about showering.

27” @ Wolf Creek

Brown water on the hot side of the sink, microwave dish not turning, proper knobs on a/c -heating unit needed. Bed was very comfortable and hangers delivered promptly (though I’m not sure why there weren’t any in the room initially?) While the property is dog, friendly, people should have a little more respect on picking up their dogs excrements from the front lawn area!

Love the electronic check in process, it was super easy and convenient! The property is an old school style motel that is clean and safe and next door to a great Mexican restaurant. Can't beat the value!

Dirty Sheets and bad customer service

The check in process was difficult, waited around 30 minutes in the cold to get to our room. Once Inside my family wanted to rest but we couldnt because we found hairs on one of the beds. I then requested additional sheets to replace the dirty ones but they were still dirty. I requested the sheets again and the manager screamed at me through the phone, eventually after arguing I exchanged the sheets for a new pair eventhough they were still dirty. Despite being a pet friendly hotel, this doesnt mean I should expect the sheets to have hairs on them upon arrival!!!!
