Read moreIf I could I would rate this Inn 4.5/5. Just as a note I rarely give 5/5 reviews. In order to get 5/5, the experience and stay must be perfect and without any suggestions/recommendations.
Pros: -Amazing and attentive staff (always helpful, smiling and kind) -VERY close to mountain, shuttle is provided (very fast service for shuttle) -Breakfast (hard boiled eggs, bagels, bread, english muffins, jams, yogurt, oatmeal with lots of toppings, bananas, apples, oranges, muffins, cinnamon rolls, granola bars, cereals, yogurt, tons of spreads for breads, apple juice, orange juice, coffee, tea, water) plenty of choice -Outdoor heated pool (open in winter) -Operations Manager allowed us the use of the conference room in the evening as we had a larger group that wanted to play cards -Restaurant on site -Water stations throughout the inn to fill up -Pet friendly -Small exercise room with treadmill, free weights, stationary bike, leg press -Noise level guidelines were followed by all guests -S'mores making ingredients at the front desk -generous with towels when needed -lounge area on third floor -games room -ski locker to store gear
Cons: Everything I am listing are MINOR things and I am only sharing because if I was the owner I would want to know where I can improve and make adjustments to make this place even more incredible.
-small room, but we knew this when we booked (in future, if we can afford it we will book two rooms for our family) -hook was missing from our room (with a family of four and ski gear every hook is required) -Glass Shower sliding door did not close while taking shower. It slides open due to uneven floor? We had to place our shampoo bottles behind the door to prevent it from opening -If the shower door was not closed tight water would leak onto the bathroom floor -a deep clean is required- vacuum and dusting of the room, and halls -sheets were thin and the bedding didn't feel crisp like other properties I have stayed at. (it may be due to the material combination of cotton plus polyester). I know, very minor. -Luggage rack that folds up would have been nice to have with my family of 4. Had trouble finding a place to put our 4 luggage bags.
Would I recommend this INN? Absolutely.
Experience Overall: The closeness to the mountain and the restaurants make this place unbeatable. The staff are top notch and amazing. They truly made our stay stand out. We almost felt like family, particularly the Operations Manager making us feel so welcomed...
