"The pizza for lunch was surprisingly good, one of the best foods at the hotel.
Breakfast was a little disappointing but I appreciate they seemed to baked everything fresh."

"It sucks that they are ruining the mountain and the town and everything but this is literally the best vanilla bean latte I have ever had in my life. You can actually taste the vanilla beans…..nevermind the coffee sucks. Hey, where are you guys going with the bull? Seriously where’d the bull moosehead go?"
