This was a quiet and very clean hotel it did have a stale smell when you first walked in but its an older hotel so thats not too unusual. The pool wasnt working but the rates refllected that issue. Great location and friendly staff we would stay there again.

Older hotel that appears to be in a state of renovation. The price reflects that and the staff was very friendly. The location is close to the historic Sandpoint area with its dining and shopping options. It is also convenient to get on the road to drive to Schweitzer basin ski area.

Smelled like Clorox, assuming since they cleaned the pool area and not in use. Blankets were stained, but clean

We do appreciate your time and review. We hope to be able to provide you a better stay next time you are in town. We certainly work hard at not providing linen with stains but on an occasion, one gets by us, thank you for bringing this out attention.
Staff were very friendly. The pool and hot tub were empty, with no plans to reopen. Rooms were clean and in reasonably good shape.

Blocks from “downtown,” so location couldn’t be any better. Property is a bit run down, but at least it’s clean. The staff are lovely. Would stay again.

Although it was clearly an older model that hasn’t had a facelift in a while, we felt the value was excellent. It was much better priced than all the other hotels in town, and for the price we were very happy. Rooms were outdated but clean, service was friendly, hot water was plentiful.

The side where I’m staying is very quiet and not many people around. It’s exactly what I needed. The rooms have a lot of space. I am satisfied with my stay.

The person that checked us in was very polite and efficient. As far as the room condition, the beds were uncomfortable and the floor was extremely dirty! The designated outside dog area was nonexistent! It was a weedy patch of ground and was a far distance away from our room! It was littered with trash!
