The onsite dining was convenient. I spoke with the general manager onsite. HE was running a great team. They looked after guests very well. Tracks are located close to the rooms. An overall experience was excellent. I packed appropriate clothing, experiencing snow, rain, and sun all in one day.
The sound insulation in the walls was poor. I experienced some noise.
