We arrive between seasons. After ski, before summer. Hardly saw anyone, guests or staff. I’m thinking we were about the only ones there. No staffed office that I saw. A key with instructions was left at check in. Rooms and beds… great. Down comforter, great pillows, nice mattress. Wasn’t much for continental breakfast. At 9:00 AM, nothing. Kurig coffee. I’m fine with that. The day after we leave the gondola should be running, passes open, visitor centers at Rainier should be open. Hotel could be a much more different “on” season. Would I stay again? Absolutely!
