This is a very tired and worn out property. Carpeting is dirty (we actually found pretzels and pieces of cereal under the table which had not been vacumned up). I would not go barefoot in this place. They advertised a complimentary continental breakfast....no such thing. They did offer coffee in the lobby. When I asked about the breakfast, the front desk staff just said, "no, we don't have that". Our coffee pot in the room overflowed (apparently the previous guest had not used all the water in the coffee maker reservoir and the housecleaning staff doesn't check this type of thing). The shower was very moldy and the shower curtain didn't even extend the entire length of the tub. The nitestand table between the bed was falling apart. And to top everything off, we could hear the guest in the next room snore all night. This is a very dirty hotel, something I would not have expected from a Choice Hotel. It appears the local management really doesn't care, and judging from some of the other reviews I have read here, this has been going on for quite some time. The only good thing going for this place is its location....great location to all things in town. Sadly, it is a dump.

we loved the downtown location and the manager went over and above to make our stay.
we will be back next year

There are not many options for hotels in Sun Valley-Ketchum area. Stayed there for 3 nights. The hotel is very good located at end of MAIN street Ketchum.

WiFi for free, but I got disconnected several times by the bad signal.

I had a group room rate of 99.-- and booked months in advance. At the end they tried to charge me 139.--/night. Lucky I had the Email confirmation with 99.--. Be aware of situations like that.

All in: Because there aren't many options in the area... yes, unfortunately...

The building is old and not as in-town as I prefer. The room was ok, except the carpets seemed kind of dirty and there was a dirty glass in the bathroom. But they were comfortable and it was nice having a balcony. The pool was nice. I wouldn't recommend it, but I wouldn't advise against it.
