We had donner and breakfast at the hotel. The dinner menu was limited as it was out of season but the beefburger was nice. Breakfast was good. Only reason I gave it 3 stars as it was really noisy. A number of cars parked in front of reception and I was awoken at 1am by a bunch of noisy people having snow ball fights and making alot of noise. They were there for a really long time.
