Loved the facilities. Clean room and bathroom. Staff at the front desk were so friendly. Close to everything including the IGA (right across the road). Took quite a while sometimes to get hot water flowing. Walls are pretty thin so you can hear your neighbours. They do provide earplugs so that’s nice. Would definitely stay there again.

Due to the limited number of parking spaces at the hotel, being unable to find a parking spot during severe weather conditions such as snowstorms can cause inconvenience and negatively impact the overall stay experience. Therefore, if conditions allow, we suggest that the hotel consider providing a “one room, one parking space” arrangement or related measures, in order to enhance guests’ convenience and overall satisfaction, especially during adverse weather conditions. Thank you for taking the time to review this suggestion. We look forward to the hotel’s continued efforts to improve service quality.

The rooms need a bit of a refresh, dingy towels, stained pillows and walls, but overall decent. The restaurant was irritating on the first day of the Skijor event; ill-prepared and closed off sections for the busiest event of the winter! Food is excellent though, definitely make reservations a long way in advance. Priority should be given to hotel guests but it isn't. Parking is EXTREMELY tight, and payment of $10 a night is a bit much when you may or may not even get a spot. (Luckily we did find a spot, but we were told if we didn't, to 'come back for a refund' which is putting the onus on the guest rather than the hotel.) Great location.
