Definitely a low rent place. Half the people there are living in the hotel. Hookers, crackheads, malcontents and such. Most lights in the room didn’t work. Someone had DEFINITELY locked themselves in the bathroom and committed suicide, pretty recently. The doorknob had been drilled through so they could get in. The parking lot is also a clusterfuck on several levels from way it’s set up, to the state of disrepair, and also just the people constantly hanging out in it. BUT the beds were nice and the room was cheap. It wasn’t dirty and the maids don’t steal. Really close to downtown too so you can walk the whole time. Overall: 5/10 would stay again.
Stayed here a number of timrs before and room was usually fine. This time I artived late and got a room that needs some maintenance. Bed was squeaky, fridge shelves were all broken and replaced with wires. Bathroom door hinges were dirty and ready to fall off.
Very convenient, however cleaning needed to be better
I didn't like that I got bite marks on both my hands
Clerk was more worried about TV or talking on the phone than helping us, but they were efficient. The breakfast was ok if you want quick and carb loaded. The rooms and surrounding area were nice and clean.
Clean, comfortable beds. Dont like the pool close to the street. Overall, a good deal.
Good location. Breakfast was poor. There was a noisy fan in the next room, but they took care of it quickly.
Cleanliness questionable. Cable tv system severely impaired. Wify spotty at best
Staff wasn't very friendly Fire alarm kept going off, took forever for them to try and fix it, they ended up just removing the battery
Nice, refrigerated poor. Had to buy running water and missed a pair of ear phones I really liked other than that room very clean and plenty of parking. Liked the free ice.
Wish extended stay didn't cost the same amount as 2 nights stay
It's a dump in a vrappy location. Not enough parking and shady staff
Convenient but unfortunately loud and cramped. Breakfast not worth stopping for.
Long term homeless like tenants, woke up to loud f bombs, and slept in a non smoking room that reeked of smoke. Do not have "high standards" but this was bad. Felt unsafe in my locked room overnight due to the other "guests" do not stay here
This hotel is close to downtown and a good value. This hotel is close to restaurants and shops. This hotel is easy to find. Check in was easy and fast.
The room was clean and about what you should expect for the price. I didn't always feel safe in the neighborhood, but it was conveniently located only a few blocks from downtown Colorado Springs.
Wow was this bad. Room smelled so terribly. A lot of suspicious people just "hanging out" in the parking lot. Scary. Was more like a 29 dollar room.
Arrived late and tired. The front desk attendant was courteous and quickly gave me the room. Although this is not a luxurious hotel, the room and bathroom were clean, the bed was comfortable. The hotel is very close (walking distance) to downtown and to Colorado College...perfect!
Nothing fancy. A comfortable room. Just fine if you're looking for a cheap place to stay. No irons in the rooms, but they have one at the front desk available for loan (although I could have used an ironing board too...). Very close to Colorado College campus, which was convenient. Beware if booking this hotel during Colorado College homecoming or graduation weekends. This didn't affect me personally, but hey overbooked the hotel. One group had booked a nonsmoking room, and all that was left was smoking. Furthermore, the front desk person told them that they would have to turn 3 parties with reservations away. He was very apologetic about something that was clearly not his fault, but there seemed to be little he could do. I don't know how the situation was ultimately resolved.
