Nice stay
Front desk staff very nice. Bed was comfortable, room was clean and plenty of hot water. We had a balcony with a view of Shadow Mtn. Lake and could listen to the live band from the bar/restaurant below. They stopped playing at a reasonable hour (we were there on a week night). I would not have liked it if the band had played later as we could hear it in our room. We would stay again if staying during the week. I would check about the band prior to booking a Friday or Saturday stay.

Loud music, especially on Friday, was annoying. Friday appeared to be part of a family staying there. She shrieked loudly and endlessly. She lasted for two hours. We just wanted quiet to enjoy the beautiful and serene mountains. We finally complained. Front desk person was excellent. Service at breakfast was delightful. But, overall, we would not return to this Inn.

No vale la pena
Elegi este hotel por estar cerca del National Park, pero fue caro para lo que ofrecía. Los jovenes que estan en el front desk, no saben nada ni te ayudan con ninguna informacion, el lugar no es como las fotos. La habitacion esta bien pero apenas entras al hotel el olor a comida se siente por todos lados, no vale la pena este lugar, hay otros hoteles en la ciudad. Caminando por la ciudad entramos a un hotel chiquito a preguntar y nos atendieron excelente!!! Una pena haber reservado en Gateway inn
