Rooms are comfortable and cosy. Oil heater kept the rooms warm and when off, room kept it’s temperature. Value for money with a great restaurant in the complex if required. A good base if you are wanting to be close to activities and the mountains.

This was a very good property. Room was large and clean. Nice amenities. All the staff was eager to help and their food was very good we recommend trying the chef specials…way more food than we could eat and it was really good. One downside was there was no lift and we had large suitcase for each of us.
