Review of Sheraton Mountain Vista

Oh I wanted to love this place, but there were so many querks. For one, the hotel bar closes at 6-7pm every night. We would barely be back from a day of skiing and they would already be closing. The rooftop hot tub was under construction when we stayed. I understand renovations are needed, but during the winter when the hot tub would be most used? Why not the summer? Oh and if its snowing (which is almost daily in the winter), expect to hear the snow plows scraping the parking lot at 4 am. And since there is no AC, and you have to sleep with the windows open, you will be woken up to the constant sound of scraping and the backing up alarm. When we spoke to the hotel staff, they told us there was nothing they could do as the trucks are ran by the city of Avon.

The rooms are very clean and the short walk to the gondola is very desirable. It's just the other things that made our stay less pleasant.
