It’s a bit tacky to check in to a hotel which is maybe 60% empty and not be offered a complimentary upgrade. (Don’t they want me to be impressed and return?) One of the magic aspects of Alta is the dark night sky, especially being so close to a big city. But Snowpine's unnecessary “security” lighting is worthy of a high crime area. Which Alta isn’t. Snowpine’s outdoor security lights mar that dark sky magic for no good reason. It’s more than a little bit strange to call the front desk of a hotel and have the person answer with a suspicious “Hello?” (What did I do wrong?) It’s weird to install bed frames that are actually hazardous to a person’s health. (The foot of the frame is a couple of inches wider than the top, so it sticks out that extra 2”. Enough to catch the unwary human walking by. A toe killer.) It’s equally hazardous to not consider nighttime safety. (No nightlight in the loo. It’s completely dark in there. Not considering this during construction just means you’re cheap.)
