Grand View Hotel

Grand View Hotel is situated on The Mall, with the zip code 176304. If you have ever visited a town like this, you know that The Mall is the main heart of the place. It is the long walkway where everyone goes to stroll in the evenings. We are right there on that path. The mountain weather is something we always have to watch. One hour it is perfectly clear and you can see for miles, and the next the mist comes in and hides everything. We spend a lot of time looking out the windows, which is likely how the place got its name. The building is older and it has its share of creaky floorboards and windows that stick sometimes. We do not have a big team of corporate managers. It is just a small group of us who handle everything from the front desk to the kitchen. We spend our days checking people in and making sure the blankets are ready for when the temperature drops at night. We get many different types of visitors, including some who have been coming back to stay with us for decades. We do not do much advertising at all. We just rely on being in a good spot where people are already walking. It is a much slower way of life than what you find in the plains. We just keep the lights on and wait for the next guest.
