So so place for the money
The place was clean and comfortable but had no frills. No cart to wheel your luggae in and had to wheel luggage thru gravel to get in building. Witteness an elderly couple having trouble getting in building due to man being in wheel chair and gravel. Customer service was like talking to robots gave information but not friendly. Even though the room was expensive everything was for a fee. No coffee in lounge or water. And on the check out day they were in a hurry for you to leave. They were knocking at your door by 8:00 in the morning and if you didnt answer right away they opened your door. There was no soap and very little shampoo in our bathroom.

Not worth it.
There seemed to be nothing there but places to pay more (than $400/night!). Not even a small exercise room. The bathroom was a mess - door handle was broken so the door could not lock. The towel rack is about to fall out of the wall. There was Almost nothing in the shower soap bottles & they were vey hard to use. The room was sparse. Not even an extra blanket. The trash cans were tiny, so those eating take-out food had nowhere to throw trash. It had 1 thing going for it - a view of the mountains. You decide if that’s worth $400.

The room was nice, the views were amazing. My only complaint is that there aren't enough parking spaces. I ended up parking in staff only parking area and just informed the front desk. Staff that interacted with were pleasant.

Even thought we didn't get a room with the view of the mountains we still like the property. Little expensive but i understand they are only open for 6 months out of the year. Clean and we enjoyed the restaurant

4/10 Fair

We recently stayed at your hotel for two nights, booking a standard room. Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing due to several issues. Our room was located directly above the service laundry room, and we could hear loud noises and feel vibrations throughout the day, continuing until after 11 PM each night. This significantly affected our comfort. It’s hard to believe that the senior staff member at the front desk wasn’t aware of this issue, unless she was a new employee. Additionally, the water pressure in the shower was very low, making it difficult to wash, especially if you have long hair. The shampoo and conditioner dispensers were also problematic—one was empty, and both were difficult to use. The parking area and the driveway leading to it were unpaved, which made transporting our luggage to the front desk quite challenging, particularly since parts of the road made it impossible to use the luggage wheels. I can only imagine how much worse this would be in the rain. On a positive note, the waiter in the restaurant was excellent—helpful, friendly, and by far the best part of our stay.

It was above average lodge. The view was incredible! No vending machines and other than the substandard Aplenglow Restaurant (spelling?), then was no snacks available after 3 p.m. when the little coffee kiosk closed. It would have been nice to have at least vending machines for drinks and snacks.

They try to get you to purchase the $22 round trip or $16 one way transportation between hotel and train station, however they have a free shuttle that goes to the visitor center and it's just a walk across the road to the train station. $32 for breakfast buffet we skipped! They did text us to see if we needed anything and she was able to answer my questions before we arrived which was quite nice and appreciated
