Friendly and Clean
Pros:

My husband and I stayed here two nights during an extended ski road trip. The front desk is exceptionally friendly and helpful. The common areas and room were very clean. The breakfast included a variety of fresh fruit and hot oatmeal. It is a quick drive to the Schweitzer bus, or to the resort if you drive yourself. There is a good restaurant right next door. Great place to stay!

Hidden Gem
Pros:

We visited Sandpoint for Valentines Day and stayed at BW in Ponderay, ID. The hotel was clean, quiet and comfortable. Pool/Hot Tub were very relaxing and serene with a gorgeous mountain view. Great restaurant right next door. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

This was one of the very best hotel experiences I've had!!
Pros:

I was delighted when I walked in and found a beautifully decorated lodge like lobby with a cozy cafe like eating area just beyond which looked out onto a wooded, snowy view. The staff members were cheerful and unflustered by the busyness of the holiday check ins. The room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was good. There were lots of choices and the kitchen staff kept everything replenished and hot. The coffee choices were very good and a special plus in my book. The aroma of fresh baked cookies! Well ......that just topped the whole experience with a cherry. They were delicious by the way 😉. We will definitely be back!!!
