Can be musky
Due to the altitude and humidity of the mountains, some guests found that their rooms were a bit musky. However, most guests did not have a problem and the heating made them comfortable.

Not too many choices for dining out nearby
While there is a small town nearby, some guests found that the restaurant options in the town were very limited. Although the hotel's restaurant serves delicious food, these guests wished that there was more variety, including more vegetarian options.
negative:
Remote location, you'll need a car
Although the hotel offers a paid shuttle service to and from the airport, most guests found that if you did not have a car that you could feel a bit stranded at the hotel. But the hotel offers everything that you will need on-site if you choose not to have a vehicle.
