Joanne M, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property was exactly as described. It is located close to Rocky Mountain National Park which is the main reason we booked this stay. The jacuzzi was great as we all were able to enjoy this added bonus. We didn't eat at the restaurant as we had dinner earlier before. The views out the restaurant is spectacular as itoverlooks the mountains and the nearby lakes. Overall, the experience was outstanding with amenities closed by and comfortable beds for our family.

Was very convenient to downtown and it was neat and clean. The entry was hard to see and the path to parking could be a little wider.

Really nice place. Room was very nice too. Parking was a challenge one night when the restaurant was having a party. Hot tub had a flim on the surface so we did not use it. Breakfast was alright but a little pricey. Very convenient to the park
