This place has the potential to give you a really unique experience. However, we stayed in the studio (two levels with all glass on bottom and a painted container on top) and were very disappointed. The bathroom was upstairs, along with the double bed, which would have been fine, but the upstairs smelled heavily of mildew and there was damp wood surrounding the windows. We didn’t feel comfortable sleeping there and breathing it in all night. So we slept downstairs, which just has twin bunk beds and a very steep ladder to get up to the second floor bathroom if needed during the night. While not the hotel’s fault, it was also extremely windy and very cold (upper 40s Fahrenheit), and we had only a small space heater to try to keep us warm in an uninsulated room lined with glass. My husband and I ended up sleeping together in one twin bed just to keep warm. The property has some beautiful views of the valley below, but the studio we stayed in has full glass that looks out to the parking area, so it was not very private. We had visions of being able to relax in our room and look out the large beautiful windows, but instead we felt that we had to keep the curtains shut just to have some privacy.
