Pros:

I liked everything, the only thing I didn't like was when we ordered. We ordered with a kitchen. And when we arrived, there was no kitchen.

In short, the stay was completely unsuitable for families and felt more like renting a room above a
Pros:

I didn't like absolutely anything. The hotel basically operates more like renting out a room with no reception at all. They don't even clean the rooms during your stay; they just hand over the space and that's it. I was there with my family, and it was terrible for us.

Cons:

I didn't like that there was no proper reception. The person who acts as the hotel reception is just a girl working at a bar next door. During my stay, they never cleaned the rooms at all. I had to go out and buy toilet paper and soap myself. They never changed the towels either, so after we came back from skiing, we found them still wet and cold. Overall, the hotel’s cleanliness was just not adequate. Additionally, this is not a hotel I would recommend for families at all. It's absolutely not a place to bring kids. The only thing next to the hotel that functions as any kind of 'amenity' is basically a bar that serves the local area. So it's not family-friendly in any way. Also, the exterior is dirty and feels generally neglected in every sense. There are cables scattered everywhere, and they don't pick up the trash properly.

Perfect get away
Pros:

Everything! Our chalet offered the perfect couple's amenities right in the heart of the fall foliage. Clean, comfortable, and easy access with a coffee truck for the morning option.

We'll be back, and we'll bring some folks with us.
Pros:

We loved the whole package. This is not a fine hotel. But it is a great motor lodge. There is land to explore, there are people to meet, there's a great pub with evening activities. The coffee truck served up excellent coffee and good conversation. The staff felt like friends. We needed a room to sleep in. We got a place to enjoy.

Cons:

We were hoping for some dinner but the food truck did not show up. That's about all I can think of. Maybe some black out shades for the front window.
