The place is lovely but needs attention to service
A few things: the initial odor from the cleaning products is unpleasant; the way the beds are made requires you to practically unmake them to get to the top sheet and accompanying covers. There seems to be some confusion about payment. We were unable to get a receipt from the hotel as they claimed Hotels.com would send an email today (which we have not received-). Apparently there is a $10 service fee which the hotel tacks on because we used a third party booking agent. Also there was a $100 deposit required. As I am on a vacation staying in hotels with unsecured WiFi, I am unable to access my credit card company to check about these charges. Receiving a receipt at checkout would likely resolve this problem. And finally, when we arrived around 7 pm, there was a sign that said “Be back in 15 minutes.” 15 minutes from when? We, along with two other guests, waited 20 minutes with no sight of the receptionist. (We left to eat supper.). There was no one at the desk this morning as well although I saw one guest standing there hoping for help. The breakfast was a choice of 5 cereals and a few refrigerated items. No gluten-free options or fresh fruit.

These people required a $80 cash fee (in addition to the cost of the room) that was supposed to be returned in the morning if the room was undamaged. They said and published that the office would be open at 8AM to receive the refund but did not open the office until sometime after 8:30am when we could wait no longer and needed to leave to stay on our schedule. It seemed like a scam to effectively double the cost of the room.

A good place to overnight on our cross country road trip. Room was comfortable and clean. Air conditioning was OK. Pool looked nice but we didn't use it. Staff was friendly. Easy access to the interstate. Would stay here again if driving through.

Sufficed for a one night stay
Overall not a bad stay. Been on the road for a month and this is not the worst we have stayed at. The condition of the carpet in room 131 does need some attention and to be cleaned. Carpets are old. There was an area on wall behind head board of bed that needs to be painted as something either broke or was removed and the wall never fixed after. All appliances did work. It’s just the appearance is of a well worn older hotel. Having to ask for the breakfast sandwich at the check in desk was odd, but then theft may be an issue. If you use a third party to book you are charged a 10$ processing fee upon check out.

The hotel was okay. The caret in the room was disgusting and we did not dare go without shoes. The free breakfast was cereal, toast and coffee. No juice or tea. The pool and pool area was nice. Location was convenient for us.

Old charm but dirty
This hotel has old fashioned charm when you walk in, having said that the sheets looked clean and the toilet and sink were clean, but the tub was old and calcium build up. The bedspread looked like it was never washed from the 1960's and the carpet was filthy. There were stains on the desk chair and when we checked out I told the receptionist about the stains and she said "Yes, we are well aware of that". She then said "Did you notify the front desk about it when you got here?" I said, "No, but I didn't notify them about the filthy bedspread or the filthy carpet either." She said okay, have a nice day and kept on washing the table in the lobby. I wanted a receipt for the stay but felt uncomfortable asking for one so we just left. One nice thing was the night before, we were given 2 bottles of water at no charge because they didn't have a place to buy water. This place has potential because of the wood work and ambiance but the rooms need deep cleaning for carpet and tub and desk chair, and a new bedspread.

Our stay was fine! It's an older style hotel but the room was clean, the bed/pillows were comfortable, and the shower pressure and water were good! The air conditioner struggled to keep up in the 100 degree heat and we never tried the breakfast as we're not breakfast eaters. Our friends walked next door to the Perkins to eat breakfast. We never tried out the pool but it must have been good as there were plenty of people using it. If you are used to fancy expensive hotel rooms then I would not recommend staying here but if that's not the case then the Foothills Inn would be good for you. The staff was nice and the rooms were clean and the location is convenient. Thank you!
