My husband and I took out our kids for their spring break...the reason why we stayed at the hotel was the pool, unfortunately when I called in to make my reservation it was open but when we got there they said the pool is closed which made me disappointed, for the last 4 days we were there the pool was closed😔 everything was fine but the pool

This property Location is ideal. However, there is a strong odor throughout the location. Front desk also gave me a hard time about using a US government issued passport as my form of identification. They wanted drivers license supplied and I do not drive.

Sheets and towels seemed clean, but the both pillow and pillow cases were stained. Might have been clean, but who wants stained anything. So even if it was clean I didn’t use them. This was a home base to snowboard for a couple days solo so it was OK, I don’t know if I would stay again.
