Service was fine. For the price, you get what you pay for. My room smelt funny...But it was convenient to crash alone for a night.

Exactly What I Thought....

This was great for what I wanted...close to Vail without overpaying. The bus line (take it) is so easy and picks you up at the Roost...very cool....Rooms arent great but whatever- they were okay- you should be on mountain and in village anyway.....

Roost Lodge Vail motel review

Not a good hotel at all!! When I arrived, I rang the bell for the front desk staff for 10 minutes and nobody showed up! Turned out he was just outside of the door smoking and never bothered to come in and help me. Then he was not helpful in terms of where to go eat, etc.... The toilet was half broken, there was very little hot water and the room smells. Anyways, I will not stay there again!

Dining tip: Short drive from hotel

The restaurant located in Vail Cascade spa and hotel is fabulous!!! bit expensive, but very good. If you want a cheaper steak and really good food, surprising the Outback located in the next town, Avon, is excellent! great service and the steak was cooked perfectly. I guess because the owner of that branch of the steak house is always keeping an eyes on the services and the food!
