The Pines Inn

Arrived at 8pm on a Friday night, no one at front desk, keys left out. Entered room to find it not cleaned. Took over an hour to get someone to help. Eventually got a second room that was clean. Many others complaining of no clean towels, tv not working, and general poor hotel conditions. Would not recommend.

Walkable distance to Mirror lake, free parking, good restaurant on premises. No stuff, however check in and check out was easy. Room had all necessities.

Perfect location. The rooms are comfortable and quiet. Good for the money. The room needed vacuuming. But the bathroom and everything else seemed clean. Perfect location. Three minute walk to Mirror Lake. Would like a room with a fridge next time. No bar soap, just a few samples of shampoo and one sample of body wash. There is no front desk personnel whatsoever. You're on your own when you arrive if you need any help with the room, etc.

Took a while to get room key. I even called the day before to inquire about checking in. Finally I just ask anyone who walked by since there is no reception person at the front desk and no envelope with my name. Overall it is tired and in need of refreshing updates. Room is clean. But you can hear noises from other rooms even conversations. I will not be coming back.

The front lobby is quaint . The tv and internet took awhile to get to work. The bed was good . It took awhile for the heat to warm the room . The bathroom was icy cold but it was clean. Took awhile for hot water. The lamp plugged up under the bed and it was unplugged in order to run extension cord to air conditioner so I had the change that. I ve never stayed somewhere that didn’t have a frig .. I overlooked that and this left me unable to keep my husband’s insulin in the fridge:( . We slept fine . And it does have some charming features .

Furniture/room is decades old. Wallpaper peeling, mold behind. Lose (and sharp) tiles in bathroom floor (obviously a hazard for bare feet). Sheets were not cleaned. No staff at desk. And NO HOT WATER. Absolutely atrocious.... Trying for refund, as I had no shower/clean bed.

Room was not clean! Half the light bulbs were blown. Outlets were scarce and not accessible. Never saw a person the entire weekend to ask any questions or get direction to even find the room. Television didn’t work and was not in the main bedroom. Felt creepy. Wallpaper was falling off the walls. Maybe with renovations it would be fine. The restaurant seemed hopping although I didn’t eat there.

I listed the good things about the location above. The one really nice thing about the place was the spacious lobby and parlor with a wraparound porch. Also, there is a restaurant in the same building which is nice if you don't feel like walking down the hill to town. However, the building is sorely in need of a facelift and renovation. The bathroom furnishings are decrepit, the blinds fall down if you try to adjust them, there is mold on the window frames, the rug is badly stained and discolored, the windows are as thin as can be, leaking cold air and making it sound as if the windows are open as traffic goes by. The walls are thin so sound travels from neighboring rooms. No-one was ever seen at the front desk, literally. The keys were in an envelope and only a telephone number to call for help. I wanted to find out how to work theTV or get an extra blanket for the bed but no-one was around to talk to. It was the worst hotel I have been in since Guatemala, years ago. I don't recommend it unless you are planning on crashing there after a day on the trail or returning from a bar cruise downtown. Not comfortable, tight room.

nothing SLEEP IN YOUR CAR, IT'LL BE BETTER THAN STAYING HERE
