"The hotel was fine, but that's not why I'm writing this review. The hotel was full, due to a nearby wildfire and the influx of firefighters to help out. When we got to the room in the late afternoon, it appeared to have been cleaned but the beds hadn't been made. A maintenance man was in the hallway and we mentioned it to him. Long story short, the maid had left unexpectedly, but the maintenance man and the front desk clerk dropped what they were doing and made up the beds. Outstanding customer service, thank you!"
