What guests think

At Inn of the Pines, guests frequently praise friendly staff and generally clean, basic rooms, while noting the aging, somewhat run-down property, uneven value for money, and some occasional noise.

Reports vary on in-room condition, with some citing pests, odors, and maintenance problems, while others note comfortable beds. Breakfast is consistently minimal, while the attached restaurant ranges from closed to limited days to quite good when open. Location works for Adams and Roche-a-Cri visitors but feels remote; expect a no-frills stay with limited amenities.

The owner was pleasant and our room was clean. The amenities in the room was limited with no coffee maker. We were the only guest in the lodge. The adjacent restaurant has been closed for years. The breakfast area was limited in size and the only seating was a 6 foot folding table. Breakfast included coffee from a 30 pot brewer, choice of two packaged muffin and cereal from two dispensers. Needless to say, we avoided breakfast at the lodge. The surrounding area was a disgrace. If you want to experience a 3rd world country overnight, here it is.

The restaurant has been closed down and the breakfast is cereal from a dispenser. My room was clean and the AC worked are the only positives. Rooms overpriced and a lack of food options were problems. Luckily there is a Kwik trip done the road.

Room was clean - Clerk was friendly - That's all that was good about the place. There was no breakfast available, not even coffee. Vending machine boarded up. Ice machine not working. Bar as advertised appeared like it hadn't been open since COVID. Property was kind of a mess - Railing in the back was un-safe - garbage scattered here and there.

Room was clean. Bed was comfy. Owner was friendly. Property has been abused and unkempt. Trash is laying around outside; even right next to where you park. There is no bar, just another door with a filthy window into a closed facility. Roof was leaky and place smells like an old basement. Paid $151 for a king suite. Was well worth maybe 1/2 that. As they say, “The entire place needs TLC”.

Yes, it is in the middle of nowhere and an alternative if you need a place to stay. The property itself is very old, tired and run down. Needs a renovation desperately.

Older hotel but clean. They still use regular keys and not key cards. Breakfast was no frills. Not much of a selection. Room was clean and comfortable. I'd stay there again.

This is a decent motel. Some of the items were older like the TV's. The check in was pretty easy. The attached Restaurant had good food, but is only open Thursday-Sunday.

I stayed here to be close to Adams as I'm working on a project there. My regular place was booked, so I figured I'd give this place a try. Staff was super friendly. The property itself was outdated and the room was very basic, but clean. There was no coffee maker in room and I didn't notice the complimentary breakfast that was mentioned in the property detail. Thankfully there was a Kwik Trip accross the street. Since I just needed a clean place to sleep that accepted dogs, I'll probably return. Would love to see a coffee pot in there someday.

This is not a hotel. It's a motel. Not sure how Expedia considers this as a 3 star hotel. It should be 2 star motel. The motel is quite good in comparison to other motels. Considering the overall picture, this is a costly motel.

its a place to lay your head,thats it.The room smelled like someone smoked for years and then sprayed perfume to cover it up.Walls were paper thin so i had to turn my tv on at night to drown out the other 6 tvs i could hear near me.Someones kids were running around for hours on Saturday.Ill give a review for the bar as well,was busy according to my buddy that ate there, but he says the prime rib was well worth the wait and everything was very fresh and good.

Expedia got its money and don’t care. The insurance I bought through Expedia the same. The motel owner says she will let me stay a night for half price. I am from the area.

I highly not recommend this hotel. Please note that the restaurant is no longer open and the only thing for breakfast is 1 kind of cereal with 1 choice of milk. 1%. You get 1 key when you have multiple people in the room. You have to get the nice gentleman at the desk to let you in your room.
