I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The location was superb, nestled right in the canyons and offering breathtaking views. The rooms were spacious and modern, creating a comfortable ambiance. The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful, making me feel right at home. However, the lack of included dining options was a downside, and the price was a bit on the higher side.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location was amazing, right in the canyons with easy access to various restaurants. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the service was top-notch. The only downside was the lack of dining options, but the grilled meat served was delicious. Overall, a great value for the money.
This hotel is a wonderful place to stay, nestled in the canyons with easy access to great hiking. The rooms are spacious and modern, offering a comfortable retreat. While the dining choices are limited, the welcoming staff and stunning location make up for it. The price is fair for what you get, but some additional amenities could enhance the experience.
