This property lived up to its expectations, other than perhaps it is a little worse for the wear in the common areas than the photos show. It was still comfortable, and we enjoyed the many offerings the hotel had, including large hot tub we used every day (the second one on a nice rooftop deck was unfortunately not operational), fun brewpub with happy hour specials on-site, roomy balcony with seating, breakfast/coffee bar, ping pong table, etc. We were walking distance to Heavenly Village and its gondola, which we took advantage of, and parking was never an issue (though very low clearance for some spots if you have a roof box). The heating system was a little difficult to manage, and unfortunately, we got stuck next to a very LOUD and unruly family who woke us early every morning (we should have complained as quiet hours are stated from 10 pm-8 am). Additionally, the cars parked right under our room were very loud idling early in the morning, as was the staff clearing the paths with snow shovels. So overall not a place for peace and quiet, but ok for a few days of skiing.
