Breakfast was awesome! Delivered to your door in a basket, as advertised. Plenty of food for my family and myself. Property is a bit dated, but had a very authentic mountain cabin feel. Will definitely be back!

Amazing spot! The view from the balcony can be a bit limited because of the beautiful trees. The locations is amazing, though. It is only two minutes drive to the area with the restaurants. The delivered breakfast in cute baskets (8.30-9.00 am). The Sunday one was late for about 35 minutes. Other than that, it was worth the experience.

Didn’t have a Mountain View but it was quiet. Room was clean but very dated. There were some things that could have been fixed, i.e, broken toilet handle, counter by sink was missing a piece in front, previous occupant had disconnected tv cable, smoke detector was on bathroom window sill, and there was NO hot water.

Stayed in the room with a queen bed and upstairs loft for two kids. Worked out. Small fridge, TV, bathroom, shower.
NO BREAKFAST provided. On weekends there is a small breakfast basket at 9 AM. Expedia is not accurate on this.
There is hot water, just wait. Perfect launching point for Taquitz and adventures

Staff were great but lots of issues with room. Paper thin walls., could hear the people chewing next door. Extremely small and tight bathroom with shower head that could peel your skin off. Beautiful view off the back balcony and cool delivered continental breakfast.

Clean, adorable little room!
The little balcony was a nice place to sit and watch birds and squirrels.
Quiet and close to downtown.
The ladder to the loft needs attention.
The fridge needed attention.
Otherwise a very enjoyable stay and I will most definitely be back.
Thank you!

It wa an adequate place to stay. Liked it had portable air conditioning and the bed was comfortable. Did get any kind of breakfast or offer and never saw anyone in the office but check in was easy as we were told where the key would be. Close to town and the price was good
