"Overall, I really liked this hotel. It was very clean and well maintained. My one feedback would be to repair the beds. Because the beds were making a lot of noise and we had problem sleeping as little movements were making a lot of sound. Also there is not complimentary breakfast... Other than these this hotel is highly recommended... my personal rating is 7/10 😃😃"

"My daughter and I were looking for someplace to meet in the middle… one coming from upstate New York and one coming from Massachusetts.This was not the first hotel we looked at. Fortunately it is the one we stayed at! The facility is very nice, even though older still very well maintained. Staff was exceptional! The location was perfect for just a fun getaway weekend. The downtown area has some lovely restaurants and shops but the restaurant at the resort was also very good. We enjoyed the area so much. We're talking about going again in the winter, even though neither of us have skied in ages!"
