Summary: Regrettably the weather shrouded the mountain during this stay so unable to view the mountain. Nevertheless room was clean and comfortable, without too much noise. Ideal for this business trip. Only negative was the lack of service at breakfast. Waited in vain for more than 30 minutes for staff to take an order.
