6/10 Good

Unfortunately it rained
This was a two night stop for us. Arrived late day one, checked in and shown our room. That’s it. Brand new bathroom which was nice. Kitchen, lounge and bedroom all in one large room which is typical motel set up. Bed was ok. Unfortunately the next day it rained all day and we were essentially stuck in the room. Could sit outside apart from the in area where the cars are parked. The best thing it has going for it was the view and the central location for all the eateries and bars.

The view of the snow capped mountains was stunning. Kitchen in the unit was great. Although the WiFi is free it is only 5GHz. Thus people with the usual 2.4 GHz WiFi were not able to connect. Parking near the unit was disorganised (no marked bays).
