Uptown District rentals with hot tubs

Overall we were happy with our Christmas stay at Basecamp Suites. Location is wonderful. Honestly you'd have a hard time beating it. It's next to the IGA and only a few minutes to walk to the meeting points for nearly all major tour companies (the high school and the train station). The hot tub was AMAZING and we were surprised to find that most nights we had it to ourselves. We definitely weren't expecting that kind of privacy on the week of Christmas. There were a few downsides - the beds were comfortable but something about the mattress was really hot. It was nearly like it was retaining body heat? It got to the point where my son had to sleep with the windows open (in December!) to cool down. They value privacy. We didn't really speak to anyone much during our visit. It's all remote check in, staff are there but are inside a separate glassed off room. It's not a bad thing necessarily but it definitely felt a little impersonal at times. When we did need assistance, staff were available pretty promptly by phone. Probably the biggest downside is that it is compact to the point of cramped at times. No bench space for makeup or toiletries much. Nowhere to keep luggage. With a whole family in the two bedroom apartment we were definitely tripping over things a bit. We had a great stay but there may be better options for the price. I'd still be open to staying elsewhere next time.

The photo when we booked this place did not do it justice for winter. This resort has beautiful spot for reception, indoor/outdoor fire, hot tubs etc. Definitely helpful to have a car as it is a bit more out of the way than accommodation right in town. Shuttles make it easier though. Highly recommend. Gives a bit more space for families
