I stayed here for a long weekend getaway. All night flight brought me to the hotel by 830am. They checked me in and my room was ready. That was amazing. It was clean. And perfect size for me,I travel solo. It was walking distance to the lighthouse and the famous rainbow road. And there’s a small grocery store directly behind the hotel. They had a breakfast every morning that I think is terribly overpriced. I ate there once and had a pastry and some bacon. For $25. I did have dinner there one night and the food was good. There was a terrible storm and my tour was cancelled. Winds were 60 mph. So at dinner time I went downstairs for something to eat and they were closed. That was disappointing. I was starving and ended up ordering a pizza for delivery. I do not recommend their tour desk. Better to setup tours through Expedia,or My Guide. One of my tours- the bus had a plexiglass window that leaked water. And I paid for hotel pick up and drop off. They dropped me off on a main road 30 minute walk. In the snow. At night. And it was my first day there and I had no idea where I was going. The tour that was cancelled- took them 10 days to refund me. So, skip their tour desk options. I would stay there again. And recommend the hotel. Just find food elsewhere and don’t use their tour options

Great other than the cleaning ladies waking us up

i would have given it five stars, but the morning after a late night Aurora expedition the cleaning ladies woke us up banging and yapping loudly at 830 am in the next room... Other than that, was excellent!

Great staff. The unlimited 24/7 coffee/tea was a life saver on cold days. The breakfast/dinner is a solid option when you are too tired to leave the hotel. Super clean, nicely decorated. I would stay here again.

I chose this hotel as it had good reviews and easy, free parking. It was 800 meters from a cafe/bakery which we walked to for breakfast. The staff are very friendly; the beds are comfortable; the room was decorated nicely; it was nice and clean and everything seemed to be in good condition. I would stay here again.
