    "every aspect of our stay from check in to check out was perfect. we loved our room and slept incredibly well in the most comfortable bed. no details were missed from the comfort and functionality. the shower was amazing. we especially enjoyed the outdoor space in the evening after a full day of advinturing. the common spaces and ambiance were cozy and luxurious. we would absolutely stay here again and will recommend the compass to anyone who we know will be traveling to the valley."
