Talus was eclectic, artistic and it felt like we were a guest in somebody's amazing house. It was a midweek stay. Maybe there was another couple there. We had the house to ourselves. That night we saw deer grazing out back and it snowed overnight. We woke up to a beautiful scene which included a few people ice skating on the frozen pond. We were in the Kipling suite which had a jet tub big enough for two people to swim is. It had a mini fridge, microwave, small coffee maker with coffee. A definite off the norm place to relax. On a side note, had an over the top dinner at 113 Main.

Hi Heather, Thank…read moreyou for taking the time to respond and engage with the feedback--it's clear you care deeply about the property. We hope that on a future visit, you might experience TRR from the perspective of a first-time guest--someone arriving with the hope of finding a peaceful retreat, but instead feeling somewhat like they've unexpectedly stepped into someone else's private space. While you see meaningful memories and personal touches, guests may interpret these items, photos, and instructions differently. The feeling of intrusion was heightened when the resident innkeeper prepared their own family's meal in the middle of the great room, making the shared space feel less like a guest retreat and more like someone else's home with lingering odors. There's so much to love about the property--the architecture and setting are truly stunning. With a bit of refreshing (particularly in terms of dusting all the bric-a-brac) and a shift in focus back toward creating a getaway experience, TRR could easily return to the high ratings it once enjoyed--as a place where guests can relax, reset, and grow.

Views of the water are nice and the town is walkable with cute shops and places to eat and drink all over the place. We utilized the indoor pool and complimentary breakfast. However, don't cancel any breakfast reservations over this because it was VERY limited. We were happy with accommodations and staff was friendly. The hotel itself is a little rundown if you don't mind upgraded luxuries.

I'm at a loss for why so many people have rated this hotel so highly. We disliked it so much we…read morechanged our return booking to a different hotel. First off, it's old and pretty beat up, nowhere near as nice looking as the photos would suggest. The parking lot is very tiny, with weird low areas that jut out and block parts of the overhead of the stall - when I opened my trunk it hit the concrete. Second, it's right across the street from a karaoke bar that is very loud into the night hours, making it hard to sleep. Third, the air conditioning unit is probably 30+ years old, barely works, and is so close to one of the beds, it's blocked from pushing cold air very far into the room. It's noisy, clunks and pops all night long, and anyone sleeping in that bed will be freezing while the rest of the room will be hot. It's just very poorly thought out and all too common in older hotels. There's also no place to plug in an EV overnight, which really should be standard by now. The pool is decent. The staff was nice, the free breakfast was spartan but fine. We just barely slept and didn't enjoy the overall experience - especially given how expensive it was. So we won't ever come back here again.

I had an absolutely terrible experience staying at this hotel on a Saturday night with friends…read moreafter a concert. There was a massive party just five doors down from our room, and while we were a small group simply playing music on our phone (without a Bluetooth speaker, so it wasn't even that loud), we were still targeted. At 11 pm, we received a call from the front desk saying we were being too loud and asking us to quiet down. At that point, half of our group left to grab food from a nearby burger place. While they were out, a neighbor next door came out and screamed obscenities at them. It was incredibly hostile and uncomfortable. Meanwhile, we could still hear the loud party down the hall from our room, despite us trying to be as quiet as possible. Shortly after, hotel staff came to our room while we were sitting on the floor, braiding each other's hair, and told us that if we didn't quiet down, they would call the police. This was very confusing since we weren't being disruptive. We turned off the music and switched to watching TV, hoping things would settle down. When our food arrived, we ate, turned everything off, and went to bed. But then, at around 12:30 am, we got a knock on the door. I got out of bed to answer, and to my surprise, it was the police and hotel staff again. At this point, I was beyond frustrated and explained that we weren't making noise. I told them that the real disturbance was the large party down the hall and offered to let them come in and check the room, as everyone was sleeping with the lights off. They declined and left. The next day, we received a call from the manager, who was extremely rude and informed us that we would be charged for the neighbor's stay due to noise complaints. They claimed this was their policy. We requested they review the police incident report and check the hotel's video cameras, as we were certain it wasn't us causing the disturbance. The noise was clearly coming from the party down the hall. But they refused to do any investigation and instead decided to blame us for the situation and charge us an additional $200. I travel frequently and manage my own rental properties, and I would never treat guests in such a dismissive and unprofessional manner. This hotel deserves zero stars. I highly recommend staying elsewhere in Sandpoint, as there are plenty of other places that will actually respect and care for their guests

WARNING: Hotel is NOT pet friendly. Both Priceline and the best western website had pets listed,…read morebut the website had a separate, tucked-away link, that stated that the hotel should be called directly about pets. No mention of this anywhere else on Priceline or the website itself. Clearly trying to get away with the legal minimum for informing customers I was informed at the desk that my cat was not allowed, despite being cleaner and quieter than most dogs or children. The gentleman at the front desk actually had the gall to suggest I leave my cat in the car. Which would have been for 2 days In the summer. With no food water or litter. If I wasn't so stunned I would have chewed out his stupidity. I was placed in a room right by an exit door and assumed the staff was giving me a wink wink to bring my cat in, that they had to follow policy but were trying to help. Except they called me a half hour later saying they watched me on camera with my carrier and I would be charged 300 dollars if I was "caught" with a cat in the room. Really? Watching me check in on camera? They could have just charged me if there were damages but they went that far? I had to ask a family member to call in a favor to have my cat taken care of. But what if I couldn't? What if I couldn't afford to cancel the room without a refund and go to another hotel? Or risk the 300 dollar fee? What if there was nowhere to board my cat because local vet clinics were closed by the time I checked in? The whole thing was badly implemented and executed The website has a picture of a paw on the amenities for pet friendly but hides that it is DOG friendly which is not the same. The whole process was shady and shameful. 2 stars because the room was mediocre, but fine, the breakfast buffet was good and the view was great. But the whole situation was a complete mess and there was no effort by hotel staff to address it.

They serve breakfast from 7am-10am but it isn't your usual hotel breakfast-very well thought out local options, options for kids, etc. Additionally, the motel is across the street from the train tracks so they provide every room with a sound machine. It worked well to drown out the train sound (however, I enjoyed the train!). Would definitely come back and stay here as it is central to downtown Sandpoint and Hope.

We were given a handicap room even though we didn't request one; it's not the best option if you don't need it (small bathroom sink with no counter space, tub is a bit inconvenient to use, and nothing to sit on in the room except the bed). The room itself was clean and the HVAC worked well and was fairly quiet. There was no microwave in our room and the mini fridge was very small. The employees were all pleasant. The pool is currently closed. They have a pool table near the front desk. Be aware it's two-stories and they have no elevator if you're on the second floor. Can be noisy if there are heavy-footed people in the room above yours. Plenty of parking out front.
