I had a decent stay at this hotel with some highlights and a few issues. The shuttle service was fantastic, making it super easy to get to the slopes. However, the noise from other guests was really disruptive, and the thin walls were definitely a downside. Overall, the hotel provides good value for a ski getaway, but be prepared for a few inconveniences.

I had an interesting stay at this ski motel. The location is perfect for hitting the slopes, but there were quite a few drawbacks that made it a mixed experience. The room I stayed in was far from ideal, with some dated decor and a few maintenance issues. The service was a highlight, with helpful staff and prompt shuttle service, but dining options left a lot to be desired, especially for dinner.

6.2/10

I stayed here for a weekend golf school, and while the location is fantastic—right in the village and close to the mountain—the hotel itself feels outdated. The staff were friendly, and the restaurant was adequate, but our room had some cleanliness issues, and the noise levels from neighboring rooms were bothersome. Honestly, the place just needs some updating to really make it shine.

Rooms

5.0

The room was clean, but the decor felt very dated, and the walls were paper thin. There was a clunky A/C unit that was too noisy to keep on. I had to open the window instead.

The hotel feels old and clunky, especially the heating and cooling systems. Some facilities could use a serious update.
