Very close and walkable to the Whistler lifts, great bar in the hotel, and it's right in the Village, so it's easy to walk to everything. Their ski storage is very convenient in the lobby, so makes it very easy to hand off your skis at the end of the day, or retrieve them in the morning. The only thing I didn't like was the slight musty smell the room -- couldn't figure out where it was coming from, I think the bathroom -- maybe mold? I left the bathroom fan running the entire time which seemed to help; but otherwise both the room and bathroom were quite clean. They have a big hot tub, but no pool.
