Great staff. Very friendly and helpful. Minimalist rooms. Had high tea in the main area and we were sweating due to sun. That made it uncomfortable to enjoy the tea. Suggestion is to move the tables back out of the sun. All in all a great stay

The property has been there a long time. Amenities are old. You can hear people talking in the adjacent room and you can hear the wind blowing through the windows/walls. You drive a long way to get to the property. Lovely view of the surrounding mountains and the lake. There is no breakfast provided. Limited selections available for breakfast in the restaurant on the property. I had the french toast and did not really care for it.

Discriminate single American travelers Would be seated at main dining and hadnt eaten since 5am (It was 5:30pm their time) Family after me without a reservation was seated. Buffalo and trout was on menu but"out" as end of season. Id stay on US side on how I was treated. I don't think they understand the cost we incur just for the experiecne and time it takes to fly and then drive there.

Vibtage experience. Be aware that the rooms dont have AC. Also the elevators are manually operated, so you may have to take the stairs quite a few times. The rooms will have black flies.

Hotel and rooms need renovations. Poor aeration, no washroom fan, no kettle, no TV, no fridge, no microwave, no iron. No value in what you pay. The only plus in this hotel is the view, lake or mountain view. It can be renovated and still keep the style.
