"Overall, the property and check-in was decent. My only concern was that the second bedroom was absent of a closet and a functioning window to an outside bearing wall. A portable fan intended to face the door was provided yet, no active ventilation was observed. I’m weary that this ‘bedroom space’ actually meets building and occupancy codes?"

"Summer at the Sun Valley Resort is almost magical. My daughter and I traveled from the East Coast to see the Sun Valley on Ice show, particularly to see Ilia Malinin who was the featured guest skater that weekend, We both had a wonderful time at the show and also enjoyed the selection of dining experiences, the beautiful ambiance, and simply relaxing by the pool. We stayed at the Inn because there was no availability at the Lodge when I made the reservation almost three months beforehand. The accommodation was comfortable, although the walk to our room from the single elevator was surprisingly long, involving multiple hallways. Other than that, it was a lovely experience. July 2026"

"Nice little place. The kitchen seems well-equipped with dishes, utensils and pots & pans, although we didn't do any cooking. If you're over 5'10", you'll need to watch your head getting into bed, and crawl up the last three steps if you're heading to the loft. It is as described, and we had excellent check-in instructions."
