Large, beautifully appointed room with private patio with view of the mountains and glaciers. Small town, so great location. A little pricey, but it was peak season...

We were friends traveling together that were in the corner apartment. This room had a fabulous view of the mountains. Very clean, excellent Parkin and convenient. We would definitely stay here again and I would recommend it to everyone.
