underwhelming stay

room cleanlinessnon-functional safe

The room seemed quite dated, and not as clean as i expected. I found some hairs in the bathroom. also, the safe in the room didn't work, really inconvenient. the bar's late opening hours was annoying. I wanted an après-ski beer, but i had to leave the hotel to find one.
