Just your average hotel. Breakfast was a status quo. Muffins and yogurt granola mix in . Staff seem to be shorthanded most of the time . That being said, the staff was all friendly though . Location was very convenient .

The Outpost was great. Staff were friendly throughout the stay, the offered great recommendations. The room was spacious enough for our family of 4. We even had an elk greet us at our doorstep!

Affordable option

This is an old motel that got a face lift. While the accommodations are simple, it is clean comfortable and modern. It’s in a great location and was much more affordable than most other options in town. My only complaint was the inconsistency of the breakfast - it was great but only on the days when they had everything in stock.

Cute stay! Pillows not comfy

This hotel is nicely updated and much fresher feeling than the other motel type stays in the area. Unfortunately the pillows on the bed weren’t comfortable which impacted my sleep a lot (bummer!) - they were just too thick. The rooms near the stairwells could have better seals around the doors for soundproofing but with a bit of white noise sound was not a problem.

Directions to check in from app are weird BUT staff at both locations was excellent in getting it straightened out. Room is very large, clean, and well appointed, especially given the price.
Mary, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was clean but very stark. Nothing that made it feel cozy or warm. The flooring was cold; the room could use some carpet or a rug. The main problem we had, though, was that we could hear lots of noise from the room above us, both late at night when we were trying to sleep and early in the morning (it woke us up). Such a bummer!
Leigh, 1-night trip

Quirky place

Room layout was very strange. There were no chairs and no desk. Just a bench that could sit three people and didn't face the TV. There were also no towel rods anywhere near the sink. Parking was very tight in the back and the exit onto the street was steep. There was almost no place to sit for the continental breakfast and we would have preferred some hot options.

Sadly very dirty.

Had higher hopes for the property. Check in person was nice, but said she didn’t have access tonthe computer, so we had extra steps to check in. Biggest issue was room was extremely dirty, including dog hair and human hair, and areas of the bathroom had mold. They have spent time and money on branded amenities, and tendy looking decor in the spirit of redurbed motels, but need to spend more on cleaning and mold prevention.

Great hotel

Absolutely loved this hotel and the staff. I would definitely stay here again. Room was cozy, bed was comfy. One of the main things I loved, was they had a small cooler in the room you could use to take w you in a hike or to the lake and they also had my favorite Rocky Mountain hiking book that gives you many hikes you can do. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Only suggestion I would say is have a little more options for breakfast. Other than that loved it so much!

Elk hanging in the parking lot, very cool.

Comfortable, but very noisy

Beds were comfortable. Room was clean. Since it is an older building that has been remodeled, the walls are thin. Other guests were very noisy. Can hear their conversations through the walls, and people walking around above sounded like they were going to fall through the ceiling.

4/10 Fair

The room itself was ok, clean but could be bigger. We stayed 4 nights and even after asking , they never came to take out our garbage or turndown service. A free light breakfast was advertised however, the next morning not only was there no breakfast, coffee or water but the office was closed. Hours open at 0700 and it was 0707, there were about 4 other couples there waiting as well. We had to call the office number and they admitted that the last couple of days, they morning person was late. We had a wedding in the town so had about 5 rooms rented and we all had the same experience. Honestly juts too expensive for the service. I did appreciate staff members helping as much as they could as it was management that has not placed order for breakfast. Needless to say, we stopped expecting breakfast there and gad to go out.
