Positive Reviews
positive:
Excellent central location
Guests clearly loved the hotel's location. For most, it seemed the reason for booking there in the first place. Though not actually right by any ski slopes, both skiers and boarders liked that there were a number of excellent resorts within very short driving distance.
positive:
Very comfortable beds
Unusually for hotel reviews, almost all people commenting on bed comfort found them to be exceptionally comfortable. Simply due to variations in tastes one usually has much more mixed reviews.
positive:
Excellent Wi-Fi
Since Wi-Fi is a service that is typically taken for granted, there weren't many guests singing its praises, but there certainly were some. They felt that the connection was reliable and that the speeds reached were more than sufficient for their purposes.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Problems with smoking on-site
The hotel is a 100% non-smoking property, and yet guests mention having to walk up and down halls where other guests are clearly smoking in their rooms - both tobacco and marijuana. They felt that if policies were not going to be enforced it was a question of false advertising. Asthmatics should take note.
negative:
Some issues with the breakfast
While reviews of the food itself were very mixed, a number if guests felt the whole atmosphere in the breakfast room was a bit chaotic. It may be as a result of ongoing renovations, but whatever the reason, guests felt that breakfast was definitely not served in a smooth and organized fashion.
negative:
Ongoing construction issues
It seems, as of April 2016, that the hotel is undergoing a full renovation. Guests mentioned that it is very much needed, and that the hotel will likely look amazing once completed, but in the meantime it was causing some issues. One was of course the noise from construction, but other guests mention facilities being out of commission and favorite areas being out of bounds.
