Very clean room. This is an older facility, but very rustic feeling. Make sure and pay attention that this is a pet friendly hotel. I did not read that before booking and we were woke up at 2:30am to a barking dog next door.

Staff were very friendly. The bed was comfortable. The only thing I would suggest is they air be turned on before guests arrive. There was a bit of a "musty" odor, but I usually have a can of air freshener so it was not a huge deal. Overall it is a cozy little place we'd definitely stay again.

The two-night accommodation offered a comfortable bed; however, the pillows could be enhanced to better accommodate individual preferences, as they were perceived as too flat. The recently renovated room was spacious, including a generously sized balcony. Additionally, the shower provided excellent water pressure and temperature regulation.

Talley Ho was a nice place. It is a bit dated but they are in the process of remodeling. It is close to the hiking trailheads that we went on and there are dining places nearby. It would be nice if they provided some type of breakfast on site. The pool was nice and the area outside our patio was a beautiful view of the mountains. We would stay here again!
