A clean place to spend a night
Our room was clean and the beds are reasonably comfortable. We could hear noise from the bathroom next door in the morning well enough for it to wake us. The view of the mountains from our room was beautiful

Best part of the property is the panoramic view! Bathroom was very small with blue fixtures and tan and brown tiles from the sixties. No fan for ventilation. Room was clean but had a very slight odor. Beds were comfortable. Group of college kids came in late. They were outside and loud until after 11 pm
