I think having a binder with your check in and check out information, along with codes for the pool. Amenities, bus route and helpful information could be a great accommodation when walking into a property. We don't love to be on our phones in the mountains, often reception isn't the greatest. A handy binder is nice!
The pool was not heated. It was freezing. We asked specifically as we were considering a hotel for the kids vs a vrbo. Be honest, especially for families who have kids
