It’s in an isolated area but it was a good place to stay. The hotel felt a bit dated but was clean and well-maintained with ample parking and typical breakfast fare for a low price.
Our family felt safe at this hotel. It was surprisingly quiet for how full the parking lot was. The room was clean, beds and pillows were comfortable. It wasn't perfect or fancy (peeling caulk in the bathroom, cracks in the paint on the wall, touch up paint on the walls that didn't quite match the color/sheen of the rest of the wall, a hook was broken on the curtain). The breakfast was standard with a couple hot options and yogurt, fruit, cereal, baked goods, etc. Overall it was a nice place to get some sleep on our long drive.
Great front desk lady. Very clean, with a nice hot shower.

The breakfast was good and the staff were so nice and friendly. Our air conditioner didn’t work good one night but otherwise our stay was great. Very accommodating !!
Nice and clean, we ride side by sides at Royal Blue and it is the perfect location. We can ride from hotel to trails. Everyone on the staff is friendly and courteous. Breakfast is good.
Although the parking lot had some dirty areas from off-road recreation vehicles, the inside of the hotel was very clean and comfortable. I was very well pleased with the King Suite w/ Sofa Bed, as the room was large and spotlessly cleaned. The bed was very comfortable, and the in-room coffee was of high quality. I will stay there again.
Everybody was very friendly and nice and helpful there at the property. I enjoyed that the rooms were cleaned, and there was plenty of towels, even though there was just two of us that checked in there was plenty of towels that we could take a shower each day with a clean . The breakfast that was included with our stay was very good. It had a nice option for healthy breakfast options and it was maintained very well also and clean was a little hesitant initially as this is right off the highway, but I would stay there definitely again highly recommend this hotel. Kudos to the owner and their staff.
Nice, clean room, comfortable bed and pillows and good parking. Service was spotty. Our room was never serviced, we had to go to the front desk and get fresh towels every day. One or both of the room keys did not work every day. The ice machine on the second floor is broken, another trip downstairs.

OK Stay
We came to visit family and stayed 4 nights. The staff was great. The room was old and needed to be updated but it was clean. It smelled musty. They had a work out room with a treadmill and elliptical, balls and weights. There was one washer and dryer. Breakfast was ok. Standard fare of eggs, sausage, bagels, waffles.
