"Perfectly OK room with a comfortable bed. The room next door had a barking dog that was abandoned by its owners for several hours, which was not cool. The person at the front desk was friendly and helpful. Rooms are not as nice as they look in the photos. They were hastily remodeled, and not that nice. Maybe overpriced for what you get, but it’s Steamboat- everything is expensive."
