RUN FAR AWAY. CHOOSE ANOTHER HOTEL

This was one of the worst places I’ve stayed. The blankets were covered in cigarette holes. Sheets full of holes and dirty. Mattresses are at least 25 yo. There was no toilet paper or towels and washcloths. Went to office to get those things. 3 of us and only gave us 2 towels and zero washcloths. Tub was yucky too. We decided not to shower. The towels!!! Omg. They were FILTHY. Please see my pics so you will know I’m not exaggerating. The staff were wildly incompetent. That place needs bulldozed down.

Absolutely beautiful little inn. Until you figure out that they don't clean, don't give you clean towels and wash rags unless you go ask for them, they don't empty trash or clean the rooms and then we found out about the bed bugs after we were there for three nights. Never again will we stay there. So unhappy.

We had to move to another room where ac actually worked. Knobs came off shower, toilet paper dispenser was broken, floor dirty… not mopped, no floor mats, insufficient towels and some stained. Mattresses and bed very comfortable, clean…..glad for little frigerator and microwave, Wi-Fi and USB charge sites. Design of old motel was reminiscent and we could sit outside the room doors and chat with others doing likewise. mist on the mountains lovely. Poor Harlan has on,y one other accommodation .. Quality Inn which was full. Chatty checkin clerk happy to share info and recommendations about area.

Staff was extremely kind and helpful, the motel rooms are just quite dirty. Towels were dirty/stained, floor was dirty, bathroom was dirty. My shower handle was t attached and I had to hold it on to turn the shower on. Water pressure was very low and it took forever for water to heat. The room was very inexpensive, so my hopes weren’t high, but the rooms need a good deep clean and a little love.

A nightmare

The room had bedbugs, is a shame me and my girlfriend left and when to another hotel. We showed the manager the infestation of bed bugs and was promised a refund. Today is 4 days later and I still don’t have the money. This place is one of the worst places I’ve ever been. Owner should be told of this horrible and nasty rooms.

This property was the absolute worst that we have ever experienced! It took almost an hour to pay and get checked in, then upon entering our room we came across the room having bug (roaches) problem!! The beds were crap and the bathroom had no toilet paper and only 2 towels! The TV has only a few channels and u have no where to sit to enjoy a meal! The people that worked at the property were absolutely creepy walking around stairing and letting people whom they didn’t even know if they were our friends in our room! We will never ever come back to this property or recommend it to a dog to stay in!

Buy a tent and sleep outside for better comfort

Room had a funny odor and the heat didnt work, which is wonderful when its 25 degrees outside. Told front desk person hoping for an apology and refund but instead got an offer for a different room.. this point i luckily had family in town and just slept there. Horrible hotel only go to if the only other choice is freezing to death or if you entered the witness protection program
