Hotel Estes

10/10 Excellent

"The floor in our room was not level. Several dips in it."

Appenzell Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had room B50 reserved for a week. The room is huge and very nice & comfortable. Very quiet & close to town. Staff were and friendly and helpful. We had a family emergency and had to cancel our last 2 days. The management was extreemly compassionate and helpful. I highly recommend Appenzell."

Murphy's Resort

8/10 Good

"The room was clean. The staff was very helpful. However the property needs a face lift. The furnishings were old and very used. Felt like I was visiting a property that was overused and was probably furnished in the 1960s or 1970s. Not very appealing."
