Travel Back to the 50s-A Good Way

Spent a night while waiting to pick up wife & granddaughter. Hilltop had a nostalgic feel, est 1947, of travel in the 50s. Reservation online & all communication, which was great, was through texts, to include room number & access code. Housekeeping staff was friendly & helpful. Only recommendation would be for better signage. Finding the Tavern easy, little mor of a challenge initially locating the room.

The view is the most beautiful scene ever. It's a panoramic view for sure and you can open your back door slider or blinds and have an awesome view all day. In the night time you can see whole cities light up with breathtaking views and wows in every direction. Great place for a staycation, vacation or just a weekend retreat.

The rooms were very well kept. Reminds you of a B&B. The fact that we could open the sliding door and have not only a view of the valley below but also a beautiful sunset was so amazing. The tavern had live entertainment band that rocked. Walking distance from our room. We definitely thought this place was undersold. We would've given it a top rating if not for the lack of temperature control in our rooms. I dont know if our vent was broken, but it was extremely cold and the wind was gushing in from the roof top vent. Not even the little area heater they provided could over come how cold it was. It was hard to sleep.

Robert

Disliked: Amenities
This property has so much potential but there are areas that are lacking. The rooms had a shared AC unit that could not be controlled. The vent allowed noise from other rooms to our room. Our neighbor was involved in an all night sex encounter that was clearly heard in our room. The shower was not finished properly. The drain was a hole in the ground. We found a footprint on the inside sliding glass door.

Completely false Advertising.

This is completely false advertising. This is neither a Tavern nor an Inn nor is it a Hotel. This is a Motel with an event facility that is associated with it down the road. You can't normally get a meal or a drink here. If you are planning on staying at a Hotel where you can come back to your room at night and get a good meal with a drink, this is not the place. If you want a hotel where you can chat with people at the bar, this is not the place. If you want a very old, but well kept, Motel where you drive up to your room and go right to bed because there is literally nothing else to do, then this is the place for you. For anyone that has rated this facility 10/10, I sincerely hope that life turns around for them and they get to stay somewhere that is a genuine 10/10 Hotel. Because they clearly have never seen one in their life. I would never recommend this facility to anyone. When I first drove up the dirt road to the location, there wasn't a car in the parking lot. That's because the "tavern" is normally closed. You have to get back in your car and drive a few hundred yards further down a dirt road to get to your Motel room. This is not a Hilltop Tavern and Inn and it should be legally required to rename itself.

It’s a great place off the beaten path that’s generally quiet. There is a live band that plays at the tavern next door but it didn’t bother m sleep ( I was in a room near the end closest to the tavern) It’s always my first choice when I stay in Apple Valley.
