Was a very pleasant stay. room and property was very clean. We wished we could have stayed longer to enjoy all the numerous businesses that were there in that little village. We plan on coming back but longer.
The room was very clean and well maintained. We appreciated a good cup of coffee in the morning. I would definitely recommend the Trail Inn for the price.
Check in process strange. A person on an I pad. Room actual keys. No front desk. Don't lose that key. Room was nice, bed good and overall quiet.
Great value.
I gave 5 stars to the staff but it’s kind of self service, but questions were answered promptly. Room was clean and I didn’t have a problem with the A/C and it was 85 and humid.

Disliked: Staff & service
Would not stay here again.
Did not like the contactless check in. Not welcoming feel at all.
Beds were very soft, just not a good experience overall.
Booked through Hotels.com, they send a text for check in and since i booked 3rd party, i did not get the text. They have a phone number in the lobby to call and person was very courteous and helped me get my key.
Impressed that the refrigerator has a freezer section with its own door. And the shower head is really good. But the drain in the tub is slow, so you might be taking a bath after all. And if the door closes on its own, it doesn’t latch. You have to pull it shut to lock the room.
What a nice spot. The check in was completely automated - but very simple and much more pleasant than a couple previous places we encountered. This one was simple - you get a message with a code and you type that code on a screen and a little box opens with your key. It’s just like using an Amazon locker or similar.
It was super quiet. Very clean. Comfortable, and really in a nice spot walkable to the whole village.
The room was well appointed, the AC worked well, and the only staff I interacted with was cleaning staff the next day. They were super friendly.
It was a good price, and parking was easy.
