点评:I am sure the motel part of this lovely inn isn't for those who are looking for a Ritz Carlton experience, but let me tell you why I've scored the motel so highly. It is well earned and I am a huge fan.
I was passing through this area of Idaho, on my way to Northern Washington. I really only needed a clean and safe space to sleep in, but I am a major stickler for clean. I also need a comfortable bed, and a place with good heat. I hate being cold, and I am cold more often than not.
I booked the room and received a kindly text from Doug, giving me my virtual key to the room. That worked out beautifully as I arrived on the late side, and it was very convenient to smoky, pull up, unpack, and get comfortable.
When I rolled in, I had a nervous moment. I opened the door to the room, and it felt colder in the room than outside! I texted Doug, thinking I may be having a tough night. Doug, showed me how to turn on the heat, and within 20 minutes, I was in heaven!
The room is small. I was a single traveler, but it would be fine for two. I grew up sailing, and I spent a decent amount of time living in NYC. I am good- in fact, happy, staying over in smaller, cozier rooms. This room fits the bill. That bed was so comfortable!
The floors are gorgeous real wood planking and the sink is no weak little sink. It is a deep basin and the faucet is great! I could actually wash my face and not feel like I would flood out the room if I left the water on to rinse the facecloth. I loved the slate counters. The fridge was perfectly efficient. The TV was large - and given the coziness of the room, I felt like I had my own personal movie theater in the room!
I understand each room has a slightly different decor, but I really loved the feel of my room. It felt very lodge (y) and yet, so darn warm and cozy and inviting. I slept like a baby in that room, and woke up happy and refreshed, the following day.
There is a lovely little yard that is shared with the motel, carriage house, and historic inn. There are picnic tables, places to walk and play with dogs, and spit green grass.
The town is small and just a short walk from the motel. There is a gas station, pizza place and a Subway within steps of the motel.
The best part is that Doug is right there in a minute, if you text him. He is affable, and even better, ready to help you to make your stay the greatest. You can tell that he really cares about the property and the guests, and that is everything.
This hotel is certainly a gem and it is perfect especially, if you need a great stopover for the night. I already booked another night. I will be going out of my way to stay there when I make my trip back home.
This hotel is the perfect spot for those of us road weary travelers because entering these roos is like entering a warm, loving hug. Don't expect chocolates on your pillows and an onsite spa, but expect a friendly welcome from Doug and a warm comfy bed when you drive on in.
翻译:我确信这家可爱旅馆的汽车旅馆部分并不适合那些想要体验丽思卡尔顿酒店的人,但让我告诉你为什么我对这家汽车旅馆的评价如此之高。这家汽车旅馆当之无愧,我是它的忠实粉丝。
我在前往华盛顿北部的路上经过爱达荷州的这个地区。我真的只需要一个干净安全的睡觉的地方,但我对清洁非常挑剔。我还需要一张舒适的床和一个暖气充足的地方。我讨厌寒冷,但我经常感到寒冷。
我预订了房间,收到了 Doug 发来的一条好心短信,给了我房间的虚拟钥匙。这真是太好了,因为我到得比较晚,抽烟、停车、打开行李、舒服地躺下都非常方便。
当我走进房间时,我有点紧张。我打开房间的门,感觉房间里比外面还冷!我给 Doug 发短信,心想我可能要度过一个难熬的夜晚。道格向我演示了如何打开暖气,不到 20 分钟,我就感觉像到了天堂!
房间很小。我是一个单身旅行者,但两个人住也没什么问题。我从小就喜欢航海,在纽约生活了相当长一段时间。我感觉很好——事实上,我很高兴住在更小、更舒适的房间里。这个房间符合要求。那张床太舒服了!
地板是华丽的实木板,水槽也不是脆弱的小水槽。这是一个很深的盆,水龙头很棒!我实际上可以洗脸,而且不会觉得如果我把水开着冲洗面巾,房间里会溢水。我喜欢石板柜台。冰箱非常高效。电视很大——考虑到房间的舒适,我觉得房间里有我自己的私人电影院!
我知道每个房间的装饰都略有不同,但我真的很喜欢我房间的感觉。感觉很像小屋,但又如此温暖、舒适和诱人。我在房间里睡得像个婴儿,第二天醒来时感到快乐和精神焕发。
有一个可爱的小院子,与汽车旅馆、马车房和历史悠久的旅馆共用。有野餐桌、遛狗和玩耍的地方,还有绿草如茵的草地。
小镇很小,离汽车旅馆只有几步之遥。汽车旅馆附近有加油站、披萨店和 Subway。
最好的部分是,如果你发短信给 Doug,他马上就到。他和蔼可亲,甚至更棒的是,他随时准备帮助你,让你的住宿体验最棒。你可以看出他真的很关心酒店和客人,这就是一切。
这家酒店绝对是一颗宝石,尤其是如果你需要一个很棒的过夜停留地。我已经预订了另一个晚上。我回家时会特意住在那里。
对于我们这些旅途劳顿的旅行者来说,这家酒店是完美的选择,因为进入这些房间就像进入一个温暖、充满爱的拥抱。不要指望枕头上会有巧克力,也不要指望酒店内有水疗中心,但当您开车进来时,您会受到 Doug 的热情欢迎,并躺在一张温暖舒适的床上。
