The stairs were narrow and steep. The rooms were clean and comfortable. You had to buy breakfast but it was well worth it!! The cost was very affordable and the food was delicious. The staff was always willing to assist in anyway.

Very clean quiet room. They do not offer breakfast. Nobody available in morning for checkout. No elevator to upper floors. About a quarter mile away I was able to hike the ski trails for an invigorating morning hike. I was there just before the skiing started.
