We arrived in town earlier than expected and was able to check in way earlier which is very nice. Staff is friendly to greet us and pool is also nice. We got to enjoy pool and slide to ourselves for about an hour before more people joins in. Room we got has mountain view so its a bonus. Only thing is building is getting it years. Toilet flashing very very slow. Elevator is slow. TV channels were not on right cabel input and has to adjust. But overall we enjoy our time.

My room (King size, single) was very spacious and I appreciated having 2 comfy chairs to sit in rather than only being able to sit on the bed. The desk also was appreciated as I did have work to do as well. The Rocky Mountain Soap products in the bath were the best - excellent quality and not your standard hotel offerings. The con for me, travelling alone to have some quiet time, was how loud the pool / hot tub area was due to screaming kids. I did have my headphones so I could use those to muffle the sounds. Also, there were a few nasty hairs in the bath tub that were easily seen and could have been removed when the tub was originally cleaned. A bit gross but nothing I couldn't take care of myself.

Our room was really nice, clean, spacious. Breakfast was really good! Lots of options with both hot and cold. My only complaints where the tub was really slow to drain and the hot tub had quite a few tiles missing! My child cut a toe open.

I enjoyed staying here, especially because my daughter had a lot of fun. However, there are a few areas that need immediate attention: 1. The elevator was extremely slow, and the stairwell had a strong unpleasant odor—possibly due to a leaking drainpipe. 2. The breakfast selection was very limited, and the quality could definitely be improved. 3. The swimming pool was not as clean as it should be. 4. A piece of the wooden bench in the sauna is broken and should be repaired immediately to prevent any potential injuries. Aside from these issues, the overall cleanliness of the hotel was good, and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

My family and I stayed at this property in April, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. We had booked a room with two queen beds but were told we were set for an upgrade—which didn’t happen due to lack of availability. Instead, we were given a bottle of wine and glasses, though none of us drink. The room had two double beds, which didn’t suit our family. A leaking pipe in the bathroom caused constant dripping, making sleep difficult. The room temperature couldn’t be adjusted, and while the AC didn’t cool, it made loud noises above our heads, adding to the discomfort. The pool, one of the hotel’s highlights, was always overcrowded from open to close, with people waiting for others to leave. The breakfast was decent—fresh bagels and good bacon, though the eggs weren’t great. Parking was also frustrating; if you arrived after 7 p.m., spots were nearly impossible to find. Would I stay here again? I’m not sure. I’ve submitted a complaint to my booking agent.

Honestly would come back. Only downside was I got a migraine from the fan running, but I think that was more of a me problem. Pillows weren’t the best but the beds were comfortable so I slept well that way! Kids loved the pool! Too bad there weren’t more shallow options but we just bought our youngest a float and that helped! Will stay again
