This place is incredibly convenient! We were able to walk to all local shops and restaurants. Having our breakfast cooked for us the following morning was such a bonus.
Our second time to stay here. Once in the winter for ski trip this trip in the fall. Alittle R and R trip. Just like I remembered it. Very cozy ski town/ mountain vibe. Rooms were clean. Hot tub was very nice. And made to order breakfast was fantastic. Walkable to store and down Main Street. Def worth staying at.
Our favorite place in town to stay for every reason you stay somewhere. Very nice management and staff. Clean, newer type rooms, quiet. Manager cooks fresh eggs like you want along with bacon. He makes the best waffles! Along with many other food choices including fresh fruit.
Wanted extra pillows, they were at the door in 5 minutes. This was our second time staying here and look forward to next year.

The hotel is aging but still nice. Good breakfast as always.
The property was great with early check in! The place was in a great location! Lots of things to do within walking distance! Really nice walking trail on the other side of the stream.
The river was literally directly behind the motel. Our 11 year old fished the river every time he could and it was a perfect gap filler between other activities. Very basic accommodations but that is all you need in Red River. Staff was great and breakfast was surprising with made to order eggs.
We enjoyed the breakfast in the mornings. It is a great location, many options for dining, skiing, or shopping within walking distance. The staff were pleasant and having the seating in the back of the hotel to view the river was very relaxing.

Our room had a very strong musty mold smell. Had to keep the window open. Bed was comfy. Location was good.
Breakfast was made 7-9 that was nice.
Needs updated. The back is nice on the creek. Would ask for those rooms.
