Good, not great.

This hotel is pretty good, but not perfect. The pros: love the Rocky Mountain soap / lotion / shampoo I liked that our room had a separate living room and kitchenette from the bedroom area so we could put our daughter to bed, and the balcony view from our room was spectacular. The cons: biggest downfall was the distance to downtown (about a 15-20 min walk) and lack of sufficient underground parking and very sparse street parking nearby. We were also really excited about the pool but found it disappointing, it is kitschy, very busy, and very cholorinated (drying to our skin and hurt the eyes), definitely not the mineral pool it appears to be.
