The location was perfect. You had the lake and mountain views. You were right in town so you could walk to all the shops and restaurants. This prevented you from driving and having to pay for parking in town. You were centrally located to all the attractions of the Olympics, and trails. The hotel was nice and the staff were extremely friendly. They made a point to make contact with you every time you came through the lobby.
First time visitors to the area and we were very impressed. We arrived early and were checked in early by a very professional,friendly, helpful front desk agent. The room was on the ground floor with a walk out facing the pool and lake with 2 lawn chairs and small table. Cleaning staff friendly as was any staff we encountered. Would highly recommend!
We found some boogers on the sink when we entered our room. The A/C is terrible and loud. It was located directly above the bed and blew on us constantly. We woke up with sore throats. Other than that it's a nice hotel.
Very friendly staff. Convenient location and accessible pools. Room was perfect and clean for what we needed. It seems that the lake house indoor pool and jacuzzi are in need of cosmetic treatment. Looks like time to paint or redo pool. Retile the jacuzzi. Overall i wood go there again.
This hotel is beautiful. The expansive lobby is so comfortable and with complimentary champagne each evening it creates a warm welcome. The room is uniquely furnished with top notch decor and furnishings. The bathroom with its stone shower and rain showerhead is so soothing. This room and the bed is one of the nicest and most comfortable we have ever stayed in!!!
