The Grand Lodge, A Vail Resorts Property
"The place is fairly nice, room was clean and adequate but there was NO AC. Maybe it’s not needed most of the time but in August it was very uncomfortable. The halls and common areas are well air conditioned. They do provide a fan but it really never cooled off all night."
