We had no TV in the room and it did not connect to the phone like we were told. Found out when I got there that I was not getting a king size bed do to my reservation time. On the upside very quiet place. It worked for us for only one night.

The cleaning staff did not come in daily to replace the towels, sheets, or clean the floor. It was snowy during the stays we were there and there was not a place to put your dirty shoes without the dirt and water leaking on to the floor. The breakfast included was a just continental with a small Danish, two cereals, and coffee. Since the staff did not get in until 8 am there was not coffee ready until about 8:20 most days. However, the room heater worked EXCELLENT. Actually, I blame expedia because when I was looking at various, this was not the site I wanted and ended up paying a non refundable fee to a less than desirable site.

The bedroom was not soundproof at all, we were actually woken up by the next bedroom's alarm. Also, in the morning we wanted to have free breakfast (one of the reasons we booked this hotel), and the main office was closed after 8 am. We had to head to the ski resort and have breakfast somewhere else.
