Location doesn’t outweigh the room

I was scared that us rated 2 stars but that’s being generous! So old and the most uncomfortable and squeaky bed of my life. Paper thin walls. The only thing it had going for it is the location but that’s not enough to get me to come back.

Charming, old-school, independently owned ski hote

Could not be more convenient. Free Lift shuttle transit stop just outside the back door in Cooper Square. 10 min shuttle to and from Winter Park resort, every 20 min. Plenty of shopping & restaurants, bakeries, bars etc within 5-10 min walk. I've stayed here 3 times. All the rooms are clean, well-maintained, great Wifi, cable etc. Free coffee/tea, snacks, instant oatmeal etc available in the common area 24 hrs. Owners and front desk staff are friendly, efficient, helpful. Great price!

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service

Very hands off.

Aside from 4pm-6pm during their very restrictive check in hours, the management was not to be found. They never responded to emailed questions thru this site, they never answered the phone number left at the front desk, and never replied to messages left. Room was super hot, with no screens on windows, and no way to cool down room. (And no response to any of our many requests). Felt like the heat was on in the building somewhere. Manager was helpful in getting our room when we arrived, but no one was ever on site the next 3 days.
