A couple of other comments:
-They upgraded us to thr Conference Suite which is slightly larger than the standard 1 bedroom suite. There is more closet space and a bigger bedroom. Just a bit more space but it really makes the stay w kids easier.
-Paulener hefeweisen in bottles at the happy hours, which starts the moment you walk in after a full day at nearby Bridger Bowl.
-The covered parking lot across the street is still available for $10 per day but they have upgraded the technology there and you no longer require a constant supply of validated tickets to get in and out.
-The staff are great here! Don’t be bashful about asking for more refills of breakfast stuff if the buffet is empty, they seem to rely a bit on being prompted to refill everything.
-The sofa bed requires a thick pad from housekeeping or it is terribly uncomfortable. And all three stays we have had to ask for that, it’s not left in the room or even brought up w blankets. You need to specifically ask them to bring a mattress pad and then they miraculously find one. It’s as if they don’t have many people using the sofa beds?!
-Location is king as others have said. Had the option of two rooms at the Springhill suites for only a bit more and we went with the Element based on location. We will probably do a suite and a room here next time though for a bit more space.
