It’s simple, got beds, shower with great pressure, I kinda liked the look. Cleanliness was 4/5 though, shower mostly, and one of the beds kept rolling when watching tv, other than that, it was a good place to stay! I’d stay again!

We stayed in the family room and it was spacious like a cabin with an open floor plan and 3 beds. We all slept comfortably and woke up to a beautiful snow capped view of the mountains. The shower fixture Sucked tbh but other than that we had a great stay!
