Wonderful Stay and Great Service!

french press helpful staff excellent service clean room
I was thrilled to find a French press for coffee right in my room. The staff was amazing and very helpful, especially Carolina at the front desk. Harry, the driver, was excellent and I really appreciated the service he provided. I was happy with how clean and well-kept everything was. The mountain view from my room was nice.
The shower water pressure was quite weak, a minor inconvenience.

friendly staff amazing food terrible lighting cave-like room
The staff was friendly and helpful. The Juniper Bistro food is amazing. They have all day breakfast available.
The room lighting was terrible. It reminded me of a cave (I could barely see anything). Four days felt too long in that room.
