The evening staff was excellent. They helped us find a parking spot for our big truck and then helped us carry in our luggage. So kind! Rooms are a bit dated but very clean and quite large.

My husband and I stayed there for our anniversary. We spent a week with these wonderful people and the room was spotless. It faced the mountains, was large and well appointed. The service was the best with kind caring staff. The Mexican food was tasty and inexpensive with our 15% off as guests at the hotel.
