In need of maintenance and renovation

I have stayed at this hotel many times over the years and will be staying for a week in two weeks time. There is a need for some maintenance and renovation to return the hotel to its former fine state. The heating only blew cold air. The friendly staff changed my room so I could stay warm. My new room was fine, the heating worked, but the TV and coffee machine did not work because the power supply was faulty. The breakfast is excellent, although the breakfast room is small and crowded. Lastly, the strong WiFi signal was not connected to the internet. When I called about this I was told it was the whole hotel. It was eventually fixed but the security level is so poor my MacBook did not want me to connect. I hot spotted through my iPhone.

It was a great place to stay very satisfied

It was a great place to stay very close to the gondola two person. Hot tub was just what we needed after a long day on the slopes.

A great Holiday Inn with a nice breakfast layout! However, the prices were high, but that’s something the area suffers from on the weekends.

This is NOT holiday Inn

It did not meet my expectation on a Holiday Inn though the overall experience was not too bad. It started with an impatient phone call when I confirm my arrival time. Some of them are unwilling to explain anything even for a second time. But some agents are really nice. Compared to those hotels below $100, the room is definitely cleaner. However it is still a bit old. The air conditioner begin to make a very loud noise like electric drill 5am in the morning. The hair dryer has a smell of burned rust. And the room’s car key is very easy to degauss. If on the same budget for my next trip, I’ll probably NOT choose it again.
