It was confused at first where to park the car. We had a van and it was not easy to park in the back. The lobby and common area looked very old and not very clean, but the room is very clean.

At first, I wasn't thtilled to have to check-in at the hitel next door but once I saw the large, clean snd obvioudly fresly renovated room, I was happy with my choice. Located jyst at the edge of the busy town center, this hotel is perfectly located for peace and quiet while not to far from the action. I enjoyed my stay.

Decent hotel

The hotel is in a good location, we had a first floor room that was clean and comfortable, but only 3 accessible electrical outlets to charge devices. It was also inconvenient having to check in/out at the hotel next door. However, I would stay there again as parking was included.

The hotel has window unit ACs, no central air, which means loud noise if you put it on. Location of hotel is excellent and they have parking also.

Enjoyed the property for the location and size of the room. Staff were great upon checking and through out. Daily housekeeping only upon request and condition of the hotel requires maintenance and upkeep. While hotel listing says mountain view rooms, this needs to be specifically asked for upon booking and it will only be provided upon availability. As others have said, costs reflect proximity and location.

After a long ride through the rockies the room was perfect and just what we needed to rest up. Very good breakfast that was maintained well with the hotel being full. Lots of fast food options around the hotel. Saw families headed to pool and gym.

Front desk is next door at another hotel. For the price of the room per night definitely not a fan of the setup. Location is good and easy walk into the heart of the activity area of town.
