This was fine for our one night stay as we moved through the country. I have owned/operated my own cleaning company for 27+ years so it's true that I may be a little over the top but I did feel like the corners and places that matter could have been a bit cleaner. The rooms are pretty small but the beds were comfortable. The doors are on the cheaper side and a little drafty. If someone wanted to get into a room, the door wouldn't be much to stop them. Thankfully it doesn't seem to be that kind of place. Most of the staff was friendly. Just a couple who did seem like they were a bit put out w/their job. Again, it's fine for a night but that's about it.

This is a gem of a hotel in the National Park Village. We loved the location, Spiral Restaurant and the communal gathering areas in the restaurant and bar. Everything was super clean, staff were capable and friendly. The views of the mountains at sunset in front of the hotel are special.

Overall nice stay, and would stay again. The staff and the restaurant were nice. Only one spa was going. The beds were comfortable. The cleaning needs a bit of upkeep perhaps.. there were live larvae and dead larvae shells under our beds. We noticed this as our daughter lost an earring so we had to move the bed to find it… wish we hadn’t of done that. Otherwise nice place, handy to the mountain and great facilities close by.
