"Clean and comfortable. Great location, close to action. Super cute. Moose wandered through the property while we were there!
The reasons it didn’t get 5 stars:
-Breakfast was odd. Pre built burritos, grab and go, for one hour. Tasty, but just odd.
-Staff repeatedly told us the restaurant was open for dinner. We sat there for 10 minutes without being acknowledged by anyone. So we left.
-No bathroom fan."
