Mountain view was beautiful. Room was huge for a double bed occupancy- you get an entire upstairs area for kitchen, dining and relaxing. Hot water in the shower area had a bit of issue but bath tub worked fine. Enjoyed our stay as the area is quiet, safe plus we got to see some stars out of balcony at night. Breakfast was delicious.

Great location but the standard room accommodation is simply too small to accommodate one or more large suitcases. We had to leave two suitcases in our car and step over our smaller carry on cases. We’ve never been in such a small room despite 40 years of travel.
