The view of the snow capped mountains was stunning. Kitchen in the unit was great. Although the WiFi is free it is only 5GHz. Thus people with the usual 2.4 GHz WiFi were not able to connect. Parking near the unit was disorganised (no marked bays).

Room is spacious and the bathroom is very nice with heated floor and towel rack. However, the timer for the heated floor made very loud clicking sounds throughout the night. Otherwise it is a cozy little spot.

We had 2 nights at The Terrace. The location is good and parking easy. We were allocated an access room ( don’t know why) but it was ideal for our needs. The WI-FI is non existent at this location so being unlimited means nothing.

4.0
The property is in a great location and very central. The staff is very friendly, and the rooms are clean. The only downside is there is no air-conditioning, only a portable fan and heating, which may be enough for this location, but on the day we arrived the room was quite warm
5.0
Easy check in. Room clean and comfortable. Easy walking distance to restaurants. Would stay here again.
