What guests think

At Best Western Mountain View Inn, reviewers consistently highlight very clean rooms, welcoming staff, and scenic mountain views, while also noting significant trade‑offs such as an out‑of‑service pool and hot tub, no elevator, and a steep, aging driveway.

Breakfast is often praised for being hot and satisfying, though the dining area can feel cramped with limited seating. Rooms tend to be comfortable with strong shower pressure and some generous sizes, but several guests found mattresses firm or worn and decor dated. Overall, expect a clean, friendly stay with basic facilities and a challenging access road.

The hotel itself was clean. It had a great shower head with great water pressure. The young girl at the desk was very helpful. There was a sign that said, "Pool temporarily closed", but the wood covering it was rotting and curled up. It had been there for a long time. The pool needs fixing.

Beautiful location, very friendly staff and nicely decorated! It was a great stay. The only downfall was that I was not aware the pool was being redone until I got there… not a huge deal but I would have definitely been upset if it was summer time. Maybe update the listing, I don’t believe that was posted… but not certain.

The bad: This place needs some work. The pool has been covered with plywood. The scary steep driveway is severely damaged. There is no elevator and the stairs are creaky. The manager's office is a junky storage room. The mattresses are completely worn out. The soda machine is filled with out of date products. The good: The staff was friendly. Breakfast was good. There is a beautiful view of the mountain and valley. For the price I paid, I would have been much happier elsewhere. One more thing. Expedia hits you with a heavy penalty if you decide to cut your trip a day short. The penalty is almost as much as the room.

This was a nice hotel with a great view. Could use an elevator. The free breakfast was good. The driveway leading up to it was very steep (hence the great view), however is in desperate need of a repaving!

The staff, hotel decor and location were great. The room was clean and cozy. I was pleasantly surprised as I did not have super high expectations. It sucks the pool and patio were under renovations. All in all a good stay, would book again.

We are a married couple who wanted to get away from responsibilities for a brief while to celebrate my husband's birthday! The sky view of this hotel that's posted on Hotels.com looked absolutely stunning so we booked and we did NOT regret it! Friendly atmosphere. Clean facility. Great breakfast options. Amazing view from the front of the hotel! They even have 3 wooden benches for you to sit on and enjoy looking out at everything! The pool and hot tub were closed for renovations, which was disappointing bc they didn't mention that on hotels.com in the description BUT that wasn't enough to keep us from staying again!

Was nervous after seeing the place. The road up to the hotel was treacherous. Couldn’t see when coming down to see if anyone was coming up. The driveway was deteriorating so not safe and when I got up the the hotel there was no name on the building on visible on the door from the parking lot. Did not try the breakfast. Room was clean but the room smelled musty.

Some outside construction/renovation at time of stay (March 2025). Walls were a little thin so you could hear some conversations outside of room. Hot breakfast included in my reservation, which was nice - scrambled eggs, biscuits with gravy, and bacon or sausage links, plus pancakes/cold cereal/some fruit available.

This is the 2nd time we stayed here this year. Back in May we stayed one night and wished we had stayed longer. So, we came back in the last week of Oct. Check-in was quick and easy. All staff was polite and helpful. Hotel was clean. Breakfast was tasty with eggs, biscuits, bacon, sausage as the hot options. There was also fruit, cereal, etc. Saw that the pool was still closed. Our room 202 was on the 2nd floor. It was very clean, and good size. The only "con" was that the bed this time around was much harder and made it too uncomfortable to have a good night sleep(2 nights). Otherwise we enjoyed this hotel very much.

The only problem i had was i prepaid online. They wanted to hold 110 on my card. We were not told about the hold. I understand it but i wasnt prepared due yo my check being deposited the next day. So they locked our room doors 1 hour after we arrived and had gone to get food. If i had not had a credit card we would have been in a bad situation. It should be told up front. I will look for a different place to stay next time.

The young lady checking us in was amazing, the lady checking us out was inquisitive but only offered excuses. The older woman who didnt want to get up from her desk because she was "eating and doing payroll" was poor. The vending machine was either jammed or out of water, the office had four cases on the floor. She didnt want to refund $2 or give a bottle of water to a 15 year old girl because she would have to get up or give her one the machine took. Crazy a hotel was that strict over a bottle of water.

It is a odd drive up road to the hotel. It is on the mountain and the drive up is narrow and small and does not give much of ease to turn, of which the turn is very sharp.
