8/10 Good

Nice basic hotel conveniently located. Easy walk to Ski Run Marina, shopping, nearby restaurants. Room and property were clean.
Jose, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location, close to shopping, dining, casinos but just far enough away for a quiet, in nature feel.
Lucy, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Location is great, right on ski run blvd walking distance to lake and restaurants, free parking, ease of communication with staff over text with quick response, comfortable and clean room.
Stephanie, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Communication was excellent. They accommodate an early check in for a reasonable price. Clean and close to everything.
Isella, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Mattress too soft, pillow too firm, no AC, really hard to rest well.
Sijing, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

I had ants all over me when I woke ip.
Simon, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Didn’t like I could not get a hold of anyone no front office
Gladys, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

A “motel-6”-class hotel for $360/night. Very old property, small room, old unmatched furniture/decor. No front desk to speak of - you have to upload a photo of your ID to their website by taking a photo ahead of time and wait for them to send you a code to your room. Didn’t do it ahead of time? Do this from your car when you arrive and wait for email with further instructions. all the furniture and decor don’t match and look like they are out of a thrift store - we had a broken piano stool in our room with broken yellow(!) upholstery. Plugs are falling out from the outlets, toilet has very poor flow and half the time doesn’t flush, but staff provided a large plunger that is sitting right there so you can help yourself and unclog it every time you use it. For this price level we expected a lot more.
Katia, 1-night trip

Great stay at Alder Inn. Enjoyed the environment and concern for our stay. Would like to stay there again.
Henry, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This site was really close to all the shops and restaurants and a very short walk to the beach. I really liked the no-contact check in, they text you when your room is ready and how to get in without having to actually go into the office, very convenient. The room was clean and cozy. I would come again!
KIMBERLY, 1-night trip

Nicolas, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Dirty rooms , shower curtain has mold on unit 10. Unit. 19 sheets were dirty. Outside was dirty and nobody was in the office. Only a gentleman names manny calls you. I never stayed here and was not able to reach the manager they just told me he is on vacation . I’m awaiting my refund since I never stayed here and still no answer.
