I was really disappointed with my stay at Elevation Lodge. The room was not clean — the floor was dirty, and the towel in the restroom still had someone else’s hair on it. There was also a bad smell in the room that didn’t go away. The toilet looked old and seemed to have plumbing issues. When I checked out, I mentioned all of this to the receptionist. He said he would let the manager team know, and while I believe he did his best, it felt like a useless response with no real resolution. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this place based on my experience.

The person was not in the front desk when we check in but we called and had the key in envelope to get in our room. The room is big and nice, we enjoyed it the first night until someone checked in next to our room in the second night. They talked loud and we could hear everything next door, that means the installation is pretty bad, the wall is thin. So if you have a hard time to sleep like us, I do not recommend this place but overall, the location is good.
