It’s a decent option for the area - the hotel is starting to show its age (I was here for a wedding 13 years ago and it was definitely newer and nicer back then). It was clean and the beds were comfy.

Room was nice and great view. The elevators were out the whole stay and we were on the 4th floor opposite the stairs. With ski gear and luggage it made for a pretty inconvenient access. Everything else was excellent.

Moutain views were nice, long drive up to get to the resort from Golden, rooms didn’t have fitted sheets which was different. Had bear spray at the front desk which was nice. Had a good time exploring the area.
