Super nice modernized vintage hotel from the 1930's. This was known THE "nicest hotel west of the rockies" back in the day! It's been meticulously redone about 15 years ago, and is wonderfully charming. Dog friendly, too! We plan on returning to explore it more.

The property is very nice and the rooms comfortable. Parking is an issue as there is no Hotel parking lot. You can either pay for valet parking, or there is a public parking garage close by but that means toting your luggage to the hotel.
