8/10 Good
"Overall, the room was clean and comfortable. However, the bathroom sink would not drain. We were offered to move rooms or wait for maintenance to come in the morning. They fixed it first thing in the morning. The tub faucet dripped. We just lived with that. The bed was comfortable. The door we entered the building through is in extremely bad shape and needs replaced immediately. The common hallways need cleaned and maintained. There was a coffee bar that we used each morning. That was very nice. Wildlife bonus, the elk walked through the parking lot in the morning."

Inn on Fall River & Fall River Cabins

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed at four different hotels this trip and the Inn on Fall River was easily the best. Even though it’s considered a 3-star I would rate it 4-5 star because of the location, amenities, and rooms. I don’t normally take baths but that large jet tub took care of sore muscles from hiking RMNP. Loved the fact it was just a few minutes to drive into town. Excellent value for the price!"
