Overall my stay was pleasant. The only concern I had was the amount of cold drafts around the window heater/AC unit. Keep in mind it was negative degrees outside with 50+ mph wind gust during my stay unfortunately.

We booked this because we thought we were going to be able to swim. The pool was closed. The room was average, nice firm beds, all the essentials needed. The coffee maker I plugged in, threw sparks at me, due to an outlet that wasn't working properly. I told the staff in the morning, but nobody ever came to fix it. It was a safely concern. The staff was nice, breakfast was good. No snacking options to buy.
