There is a train track 100 yds from location but it did not keep me awake. The rooms were large and worked well for my whole family and I will stay there again.
The room was clean and big too, the bathroom was small but not a big deal, the only thing I did notice that we did not have a hair dryer which was a bummer. Overall It was really functional nice and clean I would for sure away here again.
Calling to check in was a bit confusing cause the phone number provided in one email wasn't correct. Once I found another number listed I was helped and taken care of by the friendly staff. The area was clean and the rooms were decent. Has a small kitchen and fridge to cook or store food and there's AC unit. There was a TV to watch but didn't utilize it. The room was clean and nice place to stay the night. 15 minutes from lava hot springs so was convient.
Our stay was nice the room was clean and had all the essentials the only thing it needs is better and more pillows but other than that our stay was good.
Don't judge s book by its cover. Inside is clean and updated!

Very comfy beds and newly remodeled room interior. One thing they forgot however is a dinette set. A kitchen without a place to eat your tasty vitals makes no sense.
The room was clean the bed comfy. check in was strange had to call them for code and cell service isn’t great. The train though every hour or so blaring the horn made sleep almost impossible
I love the proximity to lava and the ability to cook in the room. You may just want to run a hair snake down the shower drain. I love this place and I’m already planning my next trip there.
Place was beautiful inside but not much to look at outside. I would use again.I love the dishes and the whole kitchen unit. Beds were very comfortable.
The rooms are super cute and you can park right by the door to your room. It’s a super small town with no amenities so make sure you have everything you need. The kitchenette was stocked and nice to have, it was tucked in the corner with plenty of space in the rest of the room.
Reserved 2 rooms for family, to stay over for the holiday. Both were very clean and comfortable. Nice and warm, and quiet! Very happy…would do this again in a heartbeat!
I loved the setup of this room. I would have preferred a king but they were all booked… the only complaints I have are the train right next to the property and the front doors were really hard to open and close. Other than that it was clean quiet (besides the train) and it was a much homier feel ran than hotel feel. I’d definitely stay here again and we had a good trip!
Very reasonable for a weekend stay. It was an easy drive to activities we wanted to do in the area. The room was neat and clean. Loved having a kitchenette. The staff was very quick to respond to our questions. I would recommend the property.
Very clean - extremly small - could have used a second chair to avoid all but one from having to stand - very handy for a tiny community like Bancroft - no local dining facility - had to travel to next community to eat or buy groceries
I was surprised to see we had a kitchen in our unit. Made it great to feed the kids& i appreciated that one of the beds was in a room. There is no heating in the bathroom so it got pretty cold in there but other than that our stay was great. I would recommend some better seating, my father in law is old& was uncomfortable when we were around the table. The unit was very clean& provided what we needed for the night
