Check in was very pleasant. The young lady that checked us in was very helpful. The only real complaint would be the hot water. We let it run a bit because it wasn’t getting warm but sadly, it never got warm and definitely not hot. Otherwise, a nice place to stay.

When we booked the room there wasn’t an impending snow storm, I was going to spend the weekend with my daughter have fun and experiment a place we’ve never been to. Then we woke up to an impending winter weather warning/advisory. Where the hotel was located, on a side of a mountain, there wasn’t any safe way to stay so we opted to go home after one night. There was no offer to refund or move the date to another time given/offered. This was not a great experience and will not book again. Also you have to check in at a totally different location to get your key. The room was dated with a few updates but still Very dated. The views made up for the lacking amenities. I would have definitely booked this location again but just overall a bad taste of not even reaching out to see if we wanted a refund or hold our booking for a later date when we checked out. Total disregard and didn’t care that were checking early didn’t even ask.
