I thought the bathroom could've been cleaner. The fridge was also so cold it froze and ruined the food we put in there, which was really disappointing.

Everything was good. Clean room, comfortable king bed, great hot tub, large and hot! Room view was only of the court yard but I realize every room can’t have a clean view of the mountains. Thx.

The reason for giving a good rating for our stay and property condition are twofold. The lobby area is looking very dated with the poor condition of the furniture. The overall stay was good as it was disappointing that coffee is no longer available in the lobby. Small thing but important to us.
