Fantastic Stay, Great Value

Check-in was smooth, and communication prior to my visit included helpful tips about nearby parking. The bed offered excellent comfort. Breakfast had MANY options. It suited me perfectly for mountain exploring. I also recommend the local Maraska sour cherry juice from the lobby fridge.

The cooling system did not work that well. I had to choose between a noisy sleep with the window open or boiling inside the room.
