Very dated. Very very dirty. It’s a shame because it’s in a great location. But one of the dirtiest rooms I’ve ever stayed in. If it wasn’t for the fact that everything in the area was full we wouldn’t have stayed.

Great front desk staff. We've stayed here several times over the years during their renovations. The lobby is great now but the rooms may need to be spruced up again. We love the interior and exterior door rooms that are available as we like to pack up the car for the day in the park without making trips upstairs. This hotel is a good value.

Great check-in service. Room was clean. Pet-friendly. Poorly lit room. Only black out drapes for privacy - which makes the room quite dark all the time. Good location. Easy parking.

We loved our stay here! Couldn't ask for a better location for RMNP and for Estes Park exploring. The staff was friendly and there were a lot of perks--free breakfast, free water bottles, etc. The rooms and property are somewhat dated but we would highly recommend for anyone traveling to Estes Park!
