The hotel does not have an elevator; and though it did not offer a continental breakfast either the elevator is probably a bigger complaint; I appreciate what the hotel is going for, as they are catering to skiiers who are in better shape and possibly younger. That said, this hotel is really geared for this type of patron; lots of spaces for gear, and otherwise is very clean, very friendly staff, and a well maintained property. Call in advance if you want a ground floor room.5
