Pros +
- Location couldn't have been better for access to highway & esp for quick walk to dinner after a long day out. Walks in town to bow falls & the cave/basin were convenient & we LOVED the bike rental for longer exploration. Roam stop across street was great!
- Only thing positive was the location.
- Great location, friendly helpful staff and even the hotel restaurant was surprisingly good. Our corner room was also wonderful
Cons -
- Wished we had a balcony, but appreciated we could at least open the window. There wasn't much space to just relax in room or hotel with a common outdoor area or balcony so we were out of the room most of the time.
- There were so many things that were disappointing about this hotel. We paid an extremely high price for the room and when we went inside the room it reminded us of a dorm room in college. There was only one bedside lamp in the room and old furnishings.
- No complaints
