"Average hotel, above average staff, with delightful quirks. I loved my stay here last weekend. The hotel appears to be average at first glance. The rooms are large. Love the separate living space from the bedroom. The furniture was comfortably worn-in, but serviceable. The cleanliness was very good! The staff were dog-friendly and loved my pittie Bruce every chance they got. Parking was easy, and access from parking to rooms is good. The hotel is walking distance to downtown Murphys Main St., where there are many restaurants, shops, and wine tasting rooms. I think it is an excellent value compared with other local hotels.
What makes this hotel better than the rest is its quirks. The lobby displays the Lee family (owners) history and outdoorsy artifacts. There are taxidermied bear, fish, and antler displays to enjoy. It reminded me of an Alaskan hotel lobby. They offer fresh-baked donuts delivered to your room each morning YUM! Or you can opt for a breakfast burrito. They also have soft-serve ice cream at the front desk if you like. Bruce loved it!
Everyone went out of their way to make me and my service dog Bruce feel welcome and appreciated. This has become my go-to hotel in the Murphys area."
