Nice place. Cute decor, clean room, comfortable bed. Sliding bathroom door a little hard to move at times. Not a huge room but more than enough room for us.

Jody, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Would recommend lil jo

Fast response from staff. Stayed in the Lil Jo room, it was private and clean. I liked that we could park in the back and be close to our room. The three other queen rooms are close together, I would be upset if I had booked one of the others and been so close to the other couples staying. Could be nice for multiple friends to book together. Glad I made my room choice, though it was just a guess.
Emily, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is a “self service“ hotel. This means that there is no one on site to help you if things don’t go well. The code they gave me to get into my room did not work and I called them multiple times to get help and have not received a response. That was two days ago. I have reported it to Expedia, hoping to get my money back and protect others from this kind of treatment.
Frederick, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The heater was loud , tv reception wasn't so good. Everything else was really good.
William, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Homey decor.
Greg, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Over-priced for Alpha Den

Lacked basic amenities like microwave and closet and storage space. Very small room. Better options available nearby.
1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had a unique situation where I left a personal item when I left. They contacted housekeeping and got it back to me. I'm not sure everyone would do that. It was really appreciated.
Don, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

There was a bit of a snafu with the check in process, as we didn’t get the email with the room name and door code. It was fixed relatively quickly. The rooms are freshly remodeled, and very nice. It’s a rustic atmosphere, and very comfy! Great value, and we’ll certainly stay here again if we’re in the area.
Mark, 1-night trip
