My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms were inviting and extremely clean, offering a private full bathroom for added comfort. I had relaxing late afternoons and enjoyed wonderful dinner experiences in the hotel's dining room. The location is gorgeous and relaxed, situated between Cheyenne and Elko, making it peaceful and convenient. The dining experience was exceptional, with delicious meals prepared by a Cordon Bleu chef. However, I did notice some room for improvement in the breakfast options. Overall, a great value for money with superb dining, comfy rooms, and friendly hosts.
