"My wife and I were very excited about how great the breakfast sounded yet when we arrived the breakfast area it was insanely loud and had zero food available due to only 1 cook available! Ridiculous to not have a backup plan! Cook was trying to keep up with only one dish at a time with the hordes of people devouring it instantly!! Needless to say I sat and watched my wife eat minimal egg, minimal sausage and nothing else as I ended up having to go to Macdonald’s for a 10 dollar meal!!"

"Loved the loft. It was exceptionally clean, very close to the west entrance to Mt St Helens and had everything you could need. I appreciate that the owner did not furnish and supply it with the cheapest items possible. Everything was high quality and well cared for. The stairs won't work for everyone but they do have motion lights which are great to have. The check out list is reasonable. Will definitely stay there again.
