Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were nice and big, offering comfortable and quiet accommodation, although they seemed a bit tired and in need of updating. The prices were on the higher side. The service, on the other hand, was exceptional with extremely friendly and accommodating staff making sure even my furry friend felt welcome. The location was absolutely beautiful, providing a perfect setting for a quiet getaway. The dining options were a bit basic, but overall a decent experience.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were basic but comfortable with plenty of storage space, and being on the 2nd floor was a bonus. The suite I stayed in was perfect, with a full WiFi signal and beautiful views. The service was top-notch as the staff were courteous, polite, and knew their customer style well. The location, especially for bikers, was wonderful with easy access to biking trails and incredible mountain views. The dining experience was satisfactory, albeit needing more options for dietary needs. Overall, a great value for money!
The hotel is great for those on a road trip, offering comfortable rooms with pleasant amenities. Ideal for families with older children due to its top location. Staff are patient, friendly, and efficient, providing excellent service. The location is perfect for mountain biking and walking adventures. Dining is good with accommodating staff. A fantastic place with minor drawbacks for solo travelers and toddlers.
