My wife and I stayed in room 210 for a night and had a wonderful experience! The space was…read moretastefully decorated and renovated nicely. We've had mixed experiences with boutique hotels, but this is an example of one done well. It's conveniently located downtown on Main Street (upstairs) and is a perfect way to either visit the city, or enjoy a night while passing through. The front desk is virtual in the form of text messaging, which we had zero issue with getting our room code and to check out, and we found they responded to our inquiry about parking promptly. The parking lot is off of Railroad street in a public lot that we had zero issues with. The electronic locks for the rooms took a moment to understand, but worked fine to lock/unlock the room. (Hint: Double tap the logo and the keypad appears). Though the pricing can be a bit expensive, it seems in line with what you can expect to pay in mountain towns. Overall, our stay at The Inn left us with the feeling that we got what we paid for, and we would absolutely stay here again.

Plenty of parking close by. Nice decore, plenty of hot water and good bathroom. Sent text 2 days prior to visit. No response. Directions didn't say that door needed to be locked electronicaly when you left the room. For first 24 hrs I couldn't get the door to lock. I was told that the doors needed adjustment. The safe in the room was already locked when I arrived. Was told they couldn't find the key fob to open it. Took a day to fix. New toilet had 3 or 4 problems. Installed incorrectly. I fixed a few of the issues to keep it from sticking but still could use some work. I didn't have any noise issues. The restaurant below closes at 9pm. I stayed 3 nites and was hiking most days and going to bed at 8-9pm. The mattress and pillows were fantastic as well as well functioning A/C and a good ice machine. There are no dressers in the room. Not even luggage stands. You Have to work out of your luggage from the floor. Not good for this level of Inn. No usable chair in the room. There was one "sling" chair that was not easy to sit on and zero back support. I like a chair to read. I don't like to have to sit in the bed whenever I used the room. I sat in the chair to put on my socks and boots and the chair tipped over and my forehead struck the edge of the bed leaving a half inch cut. Minimal blood. Trash, trash, trash!!!! There was one trash can located in the bathroom and no place to empty trash. Hydrate, hydrate. I used a case of water and 16 bottles of Gatorade. Nowhere to put the empty bottles. There are 25 steps to to rooms. I am athletic older man. It was painful to carry multiple 40 lb. suitcases and packs up those stair. The Inn did send me a text...... on the last day, asking what they could do to improve my stay. To little too late. I have been gone for 4 days. I had expected the INN to reach out to me personally about my issues. I expect the owner to respond to this review. That is all u can expect for service during you stay.... The perfunctory virtual response. This place has potential but alot to learn about hospitality. I sincerely wish them luck.

Only negative to keep in mind that they do not have an elevator at this location, only stairs to the second floor. However, it is only a two-story building, so for us, it was not an issue. Would stay here again when coming to Buena Vista.

We kept our door open waiting for the cool night air to help out. We had a problem with the faucet leaking all over the floor due to a leaking pipe. No compensation for having to use the bathtub to drink and brush or teeth until they could get it fixed, even though "Mike" said he would be happy to compensate us for the inconvenience.

I expected it would be booked, too, but was surprised when it was available. While the website listed one night stays, the owners were reluctant to let us have it for just one night on a holiday weekend, but did agree, for which we were grateful. What a find! This is a beautiful "home away from home," complete with new accommodations, plenty of space for everyone, and a convenient but private location. After a long day on the road, it was just what we needed. Spacious, beautiful, and restorative. We would stay here again without hesitation!

They have an indoor swimming pool and hot tub. I did not experience this as other people in my party did and said it was the perfect temperature, very clean. They have a complimentary breakfast in the mornings, hot coffee, tea, a waffle machine, warm syrup, bacon and sausage, several different kinds of eggs, orange juice, apple juice, and fruit. If you walk away from this hungry, then you're crazy. Everything was very stocked and delicious. The towels were very soft.The linens for the beds smelt very clean. My only recommendation would be that they do have a smoking section that was covered with some chairs and benches, as it is a non smoking hotel, maybe some ash trays. Thanks to the family that runs this hotel, they're amazing. We will be back.

I'm so glad I booked it anyway because we had a fabulous stay! The pool was clean, actually warm, and fully heated. The hot tub was also very clean, and the jets were perfect. We had the entire pool and hot tub to ourselves on a Friday night--which is rare! The shower had great pressure with instantly hot water. The beds were very comfortable. The mini fridge was impressively cold (just how I like it). Plenty of TV channels, and the heating/air controls were easy to adjust and worked perfectly. No bad odors whatsoever. I also appreciated that it's only two floors--it felt quiet and easy to access. Every staff member we encountered was friendly, smiling, and helpful. Breakfast pleasantly surprised me: bacon, potatoes, pastries, cereal, yogurt, orange juice, apple juice--and the coffee was excellent. It's walkable to several restaurants and only 0.9 miles from the Ivy Ballroom at the Surf Hotel, which was perfect since we were in town for a concert. And the best part of all? The view from our window--absolutely stunning sculpted, snow-capped mountains. We would definitely stay again.

On the sign from the road it says in large print 'Pets Welcome' however there was a game of 24 questions like how big our dog is? How much hair does he have? Is he shedding? He can't be on the furniture...blah blah blah. Seemed less pet friendly than the sign indicates. Checkout was 10am That really bummed me out.
