Only one issue is they some had mixed up that I had checked in already when I hadn’t. After 20mins they sorted it out and we selected a room of our choice. Other than that, room was good, close to shops, quiet, had a bear at our front door and breakfast was sufficient.

This property was a very pleasant stay. I was a little apprehensive because my experience staying at the Holiday Inn in Carson City was atrocious but because of the reviews I decided to give it a try. Very glad I did. The staff was friendly and accommodating, the room was clean and comfortable. Not fancy but very nice and the location convenient and walkable to everything.

This property is in an area where there are a lot of bears. Rather than spend money on trash cans that bears can not get into, they have regular old garbage cans that bears can get into. Every single night, every single trash can gets knocked over and pilfered through by bears. Have you ever been confronted by a large bear when coming back to your room at night? It's not fun at all and very dangerous. Why this property refuses to only allow bear proof trash cans like other local businesses is beyond me. Additionally, the wifi is slow and has a very weak signal. This too could easily be fixed with money but they choose not to do anything about it just like their bear issue with the trash cans.
