Quick weekend trip to snowboard. Great location and walking distance to everything. Hotel is outdated but we knew that going in and were happy with the location. Wish we brought extra blankets for the bed.

I have stayed at this hotel in the big room with a kitchen many times in the past. It is a great location and good price. This time I noticed it is becoming run down ( just like all of SLT). The room we had this time was full of black hair everywhere and in the shower. I used to live up there and so sad to see what it is now
