Perfect for exploring. Laundry nearby but half machines out of order (not run by the motel). The only thing to note is we were woken at 3am one night by the firefighter siren - quite scary if you don’t know what it is! ##### Samantha Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brandon 13 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Not much for dining. They close way before they say. The rooms are fantastic though. I suggest picking up food to cook in the room that has a grocery store before heading into the pass. ##### Brandon Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### johanna 12 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff friendly, amenities warm, clean & cozy Shower pressure to die for!
