Thank you for your kind words about our management team! We always strive to provide a pleasant experience for our guests, and it's great to hear that you found us responsive. We hope you enjoyed your stay in Welches and look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
Nice little studio, as described. Comfy bed, easy check-in. Some dog commotion from other renters (and my own chiming in), but nice to have a pet-friendly option in the area. Please consider adding a luggage rack to the room.

That's mighty kind of you to say! We're glad you enjoyed the studio and found the bed cozy. We appreciate the suggestion about the luggage rack—we'll be sure to look into that. We hope you and your pup make it back to our neck of the woods again soon!
This our first or second time to stay here. The room is very nice and clean. We did report a couple of things and the management made sure they were taken care of without any issues. We would highly recommend staying here as the rooms are excellent and management I s wonderful to work with.

Thank you, Tom for staying with us in Welches. We hope you enjoyed your getaway, and we look forward to hosting you again soon!
Unit 8 is meant for retiring after a long day out enjoying Hood and the surrounding lakes and wilderness. You're not going to be able to cook much unless you BBQ, and there's no access to hot tub or spa, but this is a great place to sleep if you're not down with camping or not stoked to spend a bunch on lodging.

We are glad to hear that our studio provided a comfortable retreat after your adventures in the beautiful Hood area. This is our studio room in the Mt Air Motel which has a mini fridge and micro wave per the photos as well as a communal BBQ. The Mt Air Motel does not have a Hot Tub or Spa and neither are listed on our advertisement. Maybe in the future, we love the idea!
When I booked it they referred to it as a condo so we were a bit surprised when we walked into a hotel room. It had a large bathroom and great amenities in a good location. The hair dryer was MIA, not sure what size the bed was but a bit short and my feet hung out over the end. The shower was a tight squeeze too. We h=ad a laugh about it and said some small people must have designed it. Overall, a nice place with thoughtful things in the room.
