      Some of our larger suites have microwaves but most of our standard rooms do not. Every room does have a fridge and there's a microwave in the lobby you may use. Leslie

      There is no A/C and we can make sure there are box fans! Typically, we open all windows at night as the mountain air is very cool and refreshing and then close them in the AM. I'll make sure we have fans! Leslie
