Pro: staff and location Con: super tiny, no amenities, a little smelly, uncomfortable bed, small parking, next to the main street, overpriced. The only good thing about this is that it’s 5 mins walk to the Gondola, nothing else. The room and bed were so small and uncomfortable we could not sleep well both nights. And the heater/conditioning was so loud. Paid over $500 for two nights.

The hotel was clean and comfortable, and everything worked well. The couple who own or manage it (not sure which) were very friendly and helpful. Our only complaint had to do with the parking, and that was only due to being there during the worst storm of the year. Having to uncover and dig out our vehicle and wait for the snow plow to clear the parking lot was a hassle. However, the hotel staff did work hard to assist with this all day long.

A small motel. Due to location, being walkable distance to The ski resort, we booked it. We had some reservation being a motel but it exceeded our expectation as it was clean and upgraded to modern styling. It had additional bunk bed which our kids really enjoyed as if we were at a cabin house. It was very close to the ski resort and shopping area we’re at a walking distance. It’s right next to a small gas station but location seems safe. We had to go to the front desk few times, as conditioner and body wash containers were empty and only one toilet paper was provided. But the Front desk lady is very friendly and apologetic and very prompt to respond. Parking is free. With family, would probably stay in a more family friendly place next time but for others, price and location seem a good bargain.

The only good thing about this property is its location to the Gondola. Several issues with property listed below: - states coffee is available in lobby at 7:30a. On the first morning I showed up at 7:45a and no one was there, locked and even rang the bell nothing. - housekeeping never came the first day and when I brought it up to front desk they tried to blame me for having a do not disturb sign - which I didn’t. When housekeeping came the next day, they only replenished towels, nothing else. Not even making the bed. - sink was cheap, no water pressure and took forever to change from hot to cold, as well as a struggle to turn fully off. Brought up to front desk and said she’d send someone but nothing was ever fixed. - asked to speak to management and front desk told me they were on vacation and there was no one to talk to with any authority on property. That is concerning. - on our last morning we went out for breakfast before check out and when we came back the door was completely wide open. I’m assuming housekeeping came when we were gone thinking we left already but all of our stuff was still in there. Overall I gave the property the opportunity to correct all of the above and wasn’t met with a single apology or way to right the wrongs. I will never stay at this property again - there are a bunch of hotels walking distance to gondola and I’ll be staying there next time.
