We really enjoyed our stay. The beds were very comfortable, it was quiet, clean and breakfast in the Meatball restaurant was excellent. Underground parking was a real plus during heavy snow. Also loved the local Rocky Mountain soap in our room which smelled divine.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was RIGHT across from the elevator… it was so LOUD all night. The “oversized” parking was full which left us paying $77.00 a day to park on the street. The hot tub and steam rooms are VERY outdated The in room heater was very loud and difficult to regulate the heat.
