Desk lady was awesome. Unfortunately, it couldn't make up for how terrible this stay was. Chairs stained, bed stained, lights barely working if at all. Linens were clean at least, but the beds were uncomfortable and the room was so musty. It rained the night we were there and the rain coming off the roof hit our AC unit all night, resulting in the loudest, hail like noise I've ever heard - you'd think someone was barraging the window with rocks! Light take a minute to barely flicker on - I would seriously discourage epileptics from staying here as even the flashes were rough for me. There are also absolutely NO amenities here, and the desk closes at 8pm. For nearly $200 for the standard room, I expected much more. We decided to move to a different property in Cranbrook, even though it's farther, as this stay was so poor. Don't let the pictures deceive you - the outside is beautiful, but the rooms are dim, in much need of an upgrade and fix, and not to the standard they should be.

The room was clean and spacious, the location is quiet (far from major roads), and the coffee in the room was actually pretty good. I like this kind of no-frills hotel.

Do not stay here
The room was dirty. The carpet and chairs are stained. The drapes are hanging and cant be closed. The bathroom shower curtain was filthy. The sheets are so old they are rough for fabric pilling. The air conditioner did not work and the bed was like a rock. This is more like a workcamp than a resort

Not going back or recommend
room not very clean, lots of hair in the sheets, dust in the corners and mold in the bath. Coffee filters wrong size for coffee machine and check-in is only between 5pm and 8pm. No one at check-out either. Felt more like a hostel but with a motel price. Gentleman at check in was friendly.

This property was terrible! Ice machine broken in 35 degree weather. Broken for weeks apparently had to drive into town 10 min for ice. A coffee cover was covering the smoke detector. Mold in the bathroom Check in at 5pm!!!!! Everything on the mountain closes at 5pm. You would have to question the sanitation of the place as there was no noticeable upkeep. Do not waste your money on this property as nothing will change.

Nice staff but place need note care!
The front desk staff was very accommodating and kind to us. I would say this is the strong point of the place, as the hotel could use a bit more care. The room was okay but nothing special, as the carpet was stained in several places, and the same for the towels and sheets, with several spots of mold in the bathroom. The location is good and the atmosphere is relaxing.
