Friendly staff, full bar and restaurant. Room was very clean and smelled fresh. Bed was very comfortable. I transport fisherman up to the the different outfitters up that way from time to time. If its late in the evening or i have clients to pick-up in the morning, ill just stay the night. This is my first time at the balmer and i will definitely be stay again in the near future.

Felt like a warehouse with beds. I know it is an expansion to the hotel just never stayed at a detached building as part of the hotel. Walked to get to the restaurant. Breakfast was good but again leaving the building we were in and walking to the main building felt very awkward. Going on a fishing trip was ok but would not ever take my wife or family to stay in a metal shed designed to accommodate more people

The place is stinky. I am not sure if the stink is from mould or not. I had no electricity in my room and few other rooms for a major portion of the evening and night. Staff did not care. The restaurant staff was unorofessional and did not know how to greet a customer.

Will stay again

I’ve stayed here many times while in town for business. I prefer the annex rooms as it seems quieter at night. Maybe a bit more attention to cleaning in the corners and behind the desks and sofas is needed. But it is still a great place to stay. Good food too.

Disliked: Cleanliness
They lost my reservation. The rooms were a little bit run down. It was obvious that the cleaning staff hadn't wiped down the bed side table because there were sticky rings from dirty glasses. And the bed was quite squeaky and uncomfortable.

Was just okay

Rooms are not what are shown on website. Noisy, can hear neighbors in hall, and beside you. Service was outstanding, friendly so the negative aspects of our stay are not the fault of the staff we encountered.
