The room was clean and had all the amenities you'd need. The area around was very walkable and friendly to get around. Parking was extremely easy even with the seemingly busy weekend they were having. Staff was extremely friendly and the breakfast was top notch 🙌

The check in process was very easy. The room was clean. The bathroom was large and had lots of room to hang clothes. There was lots of room in there for the luggage rack. The made to order breakfast was delicious from 8-9. Coffee was ready at 7. The property was quaint with the mountain vibe. Shops were within walking distance
