Winter visit to Highlands
Hotel recently changed name and appears to be undergoing room renovation. No one at front deck for check in. Call number on door and eventually someone showed up. Did not receive txt or email with check in instructions. Rooms were pretty nice and clean. Comfortable bed, gas fire place. Hotel has lots of potential.
