Booked this hotel on a last minute trip decision to ski Sunrise, other choices were sold out for the night. Apprx. 3 hr drive to Pinetop from Tempe via Rt 60. Plenty of fast food choices along main drags in Show Low and Pine top (McDonalds, Taco Bell, jack in Box, etc).
Hotel has circular drive can pull up to door, check in. Lobby area, like rest of hotel kinda outdated, but serviceable. Staff was very nice, check in quick. Drove around parked in back of hotel, up stairs, through hallway door (unlocked) to rooms. The unlocked door would be a security issue for me if I was traveling alone.
We had 2 connecting rooms at a great price, around $90 each. King had a fireplace, sofa and a second room with 2 Queen beds. Initially the connecting door between them was locked, but upon notification, they came up and unlocked within 2 minutes. The heaters are in the window - guess they are also air conditioners. The rooms were cold upon entry, but warmed up quickly.
Breakfast was continental, muffins, fruit, bulk cereal, toast, juice, coffee, oatmeal packets.
30 minute drive to Sunrise. Would certainly consider a stay again if other options were booked (Holiday Inn Express looked nice, in both Show Low and Pinetop).
