Had a wonderful time at Wilder Inn. Some difficulty finding the property because there was no updated signage. The staff support throughout our stay was excellent! I especially appreciated the 24 hour access to necessities. The simple continental breakfast was great for a quick bite while on the go. Will definitely return to this property in the future!

Quiet clean . Staff friendly and helpful. Nice they leave the lobby open at night if we needed any coffee cups or water. We had an issue with new pillows during our 1st night but the office staff shouts to unzip the pillow a little and flattened it out fine. We would stay again

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Never saw an employee once. I understand it is now considered off season, but even when it was proper business hours, never saw anyone. Bit odd, the beds were terrible, the pillows were like cardboard. But the cleanliness and location were more than ideal. Overall, still a nice place, but bring your own pillow!
