Smiley'S Saloon & Hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Charming and Cozy

I stayed in the Captain's Quarters, and I was thoroughly impressed! The room was not only clean but also incredibly inviting. The bed was super comfortable, and I appreciated the extra towels and bed linens. Even with the bar noise downstairs, it was a lovely experience. Highly recommend this room for anyone looking for a cozy stay!

Delicious Food!

The food at Smiley's Saloon was fantastic! I enjoyed lunch there, and even though we were the last to order, our meals arrived quickly. The portion sizes were generous, and I can't get over how delicious everything was, especially the green salsa. If you're in the area, definitely make it a point to eat here!

Well-Equipped Bathrooms

What I loved the most during my stay was how clean and well-stocked the bathrooms were. They provided clean towels and shower toiletries, which made my experience even better. The shower pressure was nice, and I really appreciated the effort put into maintaining that space.

Great Live Music

During my stay, I enjoyed great live music at the saloon. It really elevated the atmosphere and made my evening enjoyable. The combination of a lively bar with a cozy stay upstairs is something I loved. Just grab some food, relax with a drink, and enjoy the music!
