Comfortable, clean room. Staff VERY helpful and friendly. Continental breakfast was the usual fare with the exception of delicious Cold Spring Bakery pastries. Didn't use the pool but looked very clean. Loved that each room has its own theme. Fun concept. Loved our stay here for a family wedding. Would certainly stay here again.

Our family stayed there this past weekend & we had a wonderful time. We met some of the staff, Brandi, Dee & Diann, along with the hotel manager, Kasi. All of the staff that we met were very sweet & nice. It shows they all love their job & are proud to work there. We were able to get a tour of most of the themed rooms & they are all so unique & beautifully decorated. Kudos to all of you who help run this establishment !! The building of the furniture & artwork on the walls is absolutely amazing! We loved hearing that alot of the things in this hotel are repurposed We also loved hearing all the

About 30 of us are staying the weekend for a craft retreat. I've never been so pleasantly surprised with a hotel. It's so clean, looks new and recently renovated. The decor throughout the hotel is beautiful, full of the personal touch and each room has its own theme. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. Although it doesn't have the amenities that larger hotels have like a gym, that pales in comparison to the welcoming and homey feeling of this hotel. We had a wonderful time and i will definitely return!

Very friendly staff. Very clean. Very nice small motel only 10 minutes from noisy & busy St Cloud. What a neat & fun idea to decorate themed rooms. Decorater went all out. Best part was continental breakfast. With Covid most chain motels don't serve much. We were pleasantly surprised to get a good breakfast. We'll definitely stay here again. Only complaint was hot tub could've used more water. It seemed kind of empty.
