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

The room was not much to talk about. Clean and a decent shower. The staff and the shuttles were outstanding. I would have liked if the shuttles ran ever 30 minutes rather than every hour.

Views, service, and exceptional cleanliness!
What a stunning property! Everything appeared to have been recently renovated- it could not have been more clean. The best view in the entire area, perched above the other properties but with a convenient shuttle to get you where you needed to be. The concierge texted us to check in and provide extra guidance, which was an extra-special touch. The breakfast was awesome, too!

There was so water in the morning when we woke up. I understand how things happen however, the front desk employee gave us attitude when we talked with him. There was no laundry facility for us to use after they reinstated the water. The portapotties were not brought out til 10:00 a.m. The rest of the staff were excellent
