“This is a sports-centric hotel, and its athletic training facilities are serious business, officially recognized as an Olympic training center. Families will find diversions, too, from lakeside activities to bowling and ice-skating. I find the combination of focused training and recreational options a strong draw, though cleanliness seems to need consistent attention.”
