B Ski Lift Tours and Activities

The art deco building is gorgeous. I applaud the non-profit organization that saved, renovated and maintains this exceptional building. I very much appreciated the original bathroom fixtures. The hotel really gives you a taste of what it might have been like to travel back in the 1930-40s. On the downside, my experience was not the best: When I arrived, the front desk lady said something like: "I'll be right with you". Two minutes later, she came to the front desk joking about having problems with her Emails. Not acceptable! You should pause your Email activity when someone is waiting in the lobby. My wife and I were looking forward to a drink at the hotel bar. The website indicated that the bar was open, and a note on the door confirmed. There was nobody there. Money and a lady's purse were spread out on the bar. We were told at the front desk that the people running the bar for them decided not to open that evening. Not acceptable. The next morning I took a lukewarm shower, as it took about ten minutes for the water to become warm enough, By then I was done and my feet were in about 5" of dirty water because the drain was clogged. We were also told that if we did not turn in our brass key, they would charge us $75 to replace it. When walked down to the lobby, there was a sign stating that front desk duty started at 9:00.

We returned to this place on a quick 2-day/last minute get away. Owner is new from last time. Nice people; helpful and made a very good breakfast. Only issue we really had was the plumbing. Our room had some kind of venting issue with the sink/toilet/shower. Toilet bubbled and would go down at times; sink would go slow/stop at times; shower also stopped up and went down very slow. Told the owner about it and hopefully they can get it fixed. But overall, pleasant stay.
