"We enjoyed a two-night stay. The property is beautiful and clean. We enjoyed the rec center pool, game room, and movie rental. Our room was perfect for our family of 3. The staff were helpful and kind. We will recommend it to others!"
"I travel a lot for work and usually stay at the larger hotel chains because they’re familiar. This trip I decided to try the Ruby Hotel outside of Sandpoint, and I’m glad I did.
From the outside it doesn’t look like much, but the moment I walked into the lobby I felt welcome. The staff was incredibly friendly, check-in was easy, and the whole place had a cozy mountain-town feel.
My room was small, but in the best way possible. It felt comfortable, quiet, and relaxing after a long day on the road. The large window looking toward the mountains was a nice touch, and even my dog Kali settled in immediately.
What I liked most was that the Ruby Hotel isn’t trying to be a big resort or luxury property. It’s simply a clean, comfortable, welcoming place to stay.
If you’re looking for a place with character and a peaceful atmosphere near Sandpoint, I’d definitely recommend it. I’ll be staying here again."
"Very nice place. Decor was tasteful. Room was clean and large. Staff was helpful and check-in was fast. The only negative was the HVAC unit fan was loud and the whole unit rattled while the compressor was on. Other than that, it was a great place to stay."
"My family of 4 adults stayed 7 nights in this beautiful home. The house was clean and was the best stocked vacation rental we’ve ever stayed in. We cooked a lot of our meals and saved quite a bit of money doing it. There were more than ample kitchen necessities, towels, games, puzzles, and laundry supplies. Both showers had wall dispensers filled with quality shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The property manager contacted us not long after we checked in to tell us that the tenant right before us had reported an issue with the coffee maker and that a new one was to be delivered that day for us. The new one arrived as promised. The wooded lake setting was SO relaxing and we enjoyed the patio set and the bbq. We had wild turkeys wander through the yard, which was fun to watch. Our only disappointment was that the lake and dock was a bit more of a trek to get to than we thought from the photos. There was a sloped hill to descend, then come back up, in order to get to it so we didn’t end up spending a lot of time down at the water. That being said, we’re in our 60’s, so would assume that it may not be an issue at all for younger folks and kids. An overall fantastic stay, I Would most definitely stay in this home again!"
