"The property for a family was very good with seperate room with 2 twin beds and a kitchenette. Its very convenient to Dark sky project. We arrived late, but the front desk was nice to have the keys tucked in for our self checkin. That reduced a bit of anxiety. Downside is that the interior is bit showing age. The room door was cracked and broken. It looked bad . Wish they had patched up and made it look normal. so reduced star. "

"Great spot - new, warm. No kitchen in this unit vs the other ones in the building which have. You can make a cuppa and reheat in microwave though. Good medium firm bed which I appreciated. Also note to the provider that through hotels.com there was no emailed key code provided - and I was lucky that there was a staff memeber on site that could let me in. I think I have used through Airbnb previously where comms were sent on pre checkin. Thanks "
