Nice trip with my daughter.
Pros:

The beds and pillows were nice. Firm pillows and the bed was not too hard or too soft.
Location was excellent. You could actually walk to the resort from the station.
The ski rental is connected to the hotel and you can ski from there to the lifts.
Excellent location.
Wonderful outside bath as well. Was magical sitting in the hot springs outside while is snowed.

Cons:

Noting really.
