The staff was really kind and accommodating. While mostly clean there was a little bit of things missed. Staff was very responsive when we requested help with the tub as well as the fireplace but we were able to get them sorted really quickly. The breakfast left something to be desired.

The Blue Elk Inn is about a 20 minute walk to the heart of Leavenworth. Rooms and facilities are in good condition and clean. We stayed during the winter, so it was a busy time, but the Inn is still very quiet. In fact, they have noise policies, so it may not be good for loud children or big groups. The hot tub was open but tiny. Breakfast was underwhelming, but there are options in town worth venturing out for.

The heater fan was extremely noisy, making it difficult for us to sleep with it on. It was disappointing to have this experience, especially considering the stay was quite expensive.

Stayed in one of the suites which was very spacious. The hot tub, firepits, and saunas were great. Tv was not keeping singal in the room and living room tv was to old to connect to your home apps. Overall very great stay.

Cozy, clean, comfortable. I would stay there again however Some front desk staff not friendly. With the vacancy rate at that time, I would have preferred my room not have been next to office/business area with noise.
