Great place to stay at a great price. Great location for the ski hill and town. We had a basement room and still got mountain and river views! The pool, hot tub, water slide, and sauna was appreciated by child and adult. Decent breakfast and included which is always appreciated.

Our only disappointment was with the breakfast. There was hardly any selection of food and every table was really dirty because no one was cleaning them. We ended up having to go for breakfast elsewhere which defeats the purpose of complimentary hotel breakfast. We saw a family having to ask staff for cleaner and towels to clean their own table. Otherwise our suite and the location were great.

It is a nice Hotel. There is a water slide on the main floor. They have a restaurant too. The rooms are clean and bright. The curtains are blackout curtains so you can have it as dark as you like. They is a thermostat in the room so you can adjust it to the desired temperature. I had the room with the jetuze and a loft king sized bed that over looked the room. There is a microwave and a mini fridge/freezer to help keep your food fresh. It had 2 television, one on the top and one in the living room. There was a full sized washroom on the lower floor too. Overall it was a nice experience.

Overall, not bad! My room was at the end of the hall on the second floor and there was not much/if any noise from the guests. Only issues were that the traffic noise was pretty audible and the room temperature control is a bit hard to manage (either full blast or off were really the two options for the heat). Service was great though.

Well, I can only talk about the restaurant The new owners as well as the food are New to the local. We have had breakfast, lunch and dinner here on occasion, each time it has been well put together and very tasty, from the lamb chops, chicken Korean burger to the perogies and duck for breakfast, especially the duck. It is all Good, just a couple minutes away. Go for a ride, give it a try. Fish and chips are pretty good too!.

Great stay with a lot of amenities for the price! We had the 2-story loft style room with a jacuzzi tub and had a very nice, enjoyable stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful and does the best they can to maintain this large resort without having to up the prices. We enjoyed the room with a view of the river and used the jacuzzi tub in room as well as the communal sauna. We also enjoyed breakfast in the morning which had more variety to offer than we expected. I would stay here again and recommend it to others!

This is a great spot in the heart of the mountains. The room was neat and clean with extra sheets and pillows provided. The jacuzzi tub in the room was great and they had bath robes on hand as well. The swimming pool was large and spacious and the water slide was a lot of fun. Relaxing in the outdoor hot tub was so relaxing. There is also a sauna and fitness room as well as game room. There is a free breakfast station for all guests and it had a good selection of items. Also included is the amazing mountain views.

Pretty standard amenities and not too busy due to pre-winter season stay. Daily breakfast was minimal nothing hot except waffles. They do have a pool, slides, hot tub and a sauna.
