[jbq]

Casino, Shuttle, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Spa, Golf nearby, Tenniss neraby, Business center.

I was hoping to get the skywalk terrace at the Peppermill, oh well, I guess I'll see the motorlodge at the Atlantis (and I'll enjoy the breakfast and the Purple Parrot and pizza, gelato and mozarella sticks at the Cafe Alfresco).

$31 per night, 2 nights, 2 rooms, $124 + 19.25 (tax), total $143.25.

FWIW, the room was smallish, but clean. There was (apparently) wireless internet access, though I wasn't able to check it since I didn't have any wi-fi-enabled device with me.

Some people on some hotel review boards complained that the place was essentially a dump, but that wasn't my impression at all. It wasn't brand-new, but it was correct and in line with the 2.5* rating.

Worth mentioning, though, is the fact that room keys are plain metal keys, which could be esaily duplicated. Be even more careful than usual to not leave valuables in your room.

BTW, when going skiing, the motorlodge aspect is a positive one: there was parking very close to the room, and no need to walk through an antire hot casino in warm ski clothes.
