This is an older property like a lot of the small hotels in this area, so it is dated, but very well maintained, cleaned and has all that you need for an enjoyable stay. The location was fantastic. My only negative comment is the beds were horribly hard and uncomfortable. And unfortunately after long days of hiking you need a comfortable bed to sleep in. But balanced with the price, I would definitely stay here again and just bring a mattress topper with me.

I tried to cancel my reservation booked for the end of August 2025 due to my airline. Air Canada went on strike so I couldn’t go to Italy and stay at the hotel. I called the hotel and explained the circumstances and they refused to grant my cancellation and completely charged me the full amount for the room I felt that this is very poor With no understanding about things are out of your control. Very poor customer service.

We needed toilet paper there was no one around for our stay of 2 days . We borrowed some unopened paper from the person next door .. No tissues. There was soda bottles left on our dresser. It was a quiet stay and the grounds were nice . Pool was handy.

Did not receive daily housekeeping. Asked for clean towels did get 2 bath towels and was told someone would bring us hand towels and face clothes which we did not receive. Had to get our own coffee for the following morning from the office. Cleaning products were very overpowering…. Anyone with sensitivities would not do well. On a positive note the beds were comfortable. We did not feel comfortable here so we left a day early.

Hungry Trout Resort is definitely overrated. There’s no microwave in the room, no lunch service available, and WiFi connectivity is poor – expect frequent drops. The room lamps didn’t work properly, making the stay inconvenient. Despite being advertised as a resort, it feels more like an average motel that shouldn’t cost more than $70–$75 per night. The furniture is outdated, and yes, you might even spot spider webs in the room corners. The photos online are misleading – while it promises a mountain view, 50% of it is blocked by trees, so don’t expect a clear scenic experience.

Nice clean room, comfy bed, good shower, nice pool & swings. Pillows were hard. Grounds were more rustic than the website photos. River was far away. It was not a “patio room,” just a small bench by the parking space. Not “mountain view,” just grass and trees. Restaurant was closed. But good price and ok location. Nice owner.

Beds were crazy noisy - husband lifted mattress and the mattress sits in 1/8-1/4 inch paneling/ply wood that is screwed to framing. Owner said no one ever complained about it - Our entire room woke every time someone moved in the bed so we all slept horrible. There was some mold you could see in the windows etc, pretty outdated. But it served the purpose we needed it for.
