Some of the finest front desk staff I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Lisa did an amazing job. The place itself is on the older side, but really is immaculately cleaned. Would recommend a stay on that alone. The place can get a little noisy when the miners fire up their 2500’s and head in to work early in the AM, but that’s to be expected in a mining town.

Would have given 5 stars all the way around but reserved 3 rooms, the room my brother was in, had no coffee pot and issues with air conditioning. The rooms were very clean. The service was excellent! We are booked to stay again around July 12 and are looking forward to it.
