Not worth the convenience

For a non-smoking facility, the room smelled of smoke. The bed linens are more ivory than white. The mattresses are very firm without any pillow topper so you can feel the springs. The window/AC unit is very drafty so sitting at the table you will have cold feet. The walls between rooms are not well insulated if at all. You will hear your neighbour turn on the shower as the water sound through the pipes will shatter your sleep. The bathroom is typical of hotels that have maintenance done by DIY amateurs. However, the toilet has incredible flush power. If your intention is to be right on the hill for easy access skiing, I would recommend staying at a more comfortable hotel in town and taking the free shuttle or driving the 10 minutes to park for free. It is worth the extra hassle.

Great service! It’s certainly the budget option, but in comparison to other budget options, this one was great. Clean rooms with massive TV’s, social and common areas with a pool table, this place had everything we needed. Staff at check in were phenomenal and able to assist with everything.

It has everything we need.

I gave it 5 star for the price and location. It’s clean and not as bad as some reviews. It’s true that the beds, sheets, and chairs need update, but we all enjoyed the very clean room and the facilities. The staff is also very friendly and helpful. We will go back again.
