I found the lack of microwaves, in the rooms or another accessible location on the property very irksome and inconvenient, when properties that charge less usually have them. They had one in their kitchen and 3 out of 4 of the front desk staff were open to heating food for us, but one was not, and he was unfortunately the first one we had encountered.

Good location and great room at this price. They helped in late check-in at 12am. Everything was smooth.

Good!!

It was our second stay in this place. Base camp is amazing, location is great, love the common space with fireplace and smores, stuff is very friendly, rooms are very comfy and nice. Can't wait to get back :).

Location. Close to street and stores and restaurants

No breakfast included.

Pretty much worth the money. Nothing too special. Most importantly the room was very clean.

Great stay. Close to everything!

Nice rooms, comfortable bed, friendly staff.
