Skotel is conveniently located and our second stay for the ski fields. Check-in is unmanned before 3pm with earlier arrivals invited to wait in the bar, which is also unmanned at that time. Dinner seems to be limited to 2 hours between 6-8pm but the food is quite good when available. The hotel was noisy with the late hour conversation from a neighbouring room resonating through the walls. Guests children seemed to use the corridors as a playground, running, yelling and screaming into the evening. Seems a very casual hotel with very casual standards
