Young lady who checked us in was very nice. But when we got to the room there was someone else’s stuff in there. Property is run down and there were some odd looking people around. It’s ok for a quick night’s stay. I wouldn’t recommend it for women traveling alone.

It’s an old, dirty, dingy place. You must not call it a hotel, hellhole may be. We were beat and tired hence we just slept and checked out immediately after waking up. We had no other option at the short notice and took chance but at what cost. Alas a terrible place to stay at unless you are broke as f and have no interest living your life.

Bare bones basic Colorado mountains special. Bring your own personal care products (bargain basement bar soap & what appears to be blue dial in little wrappers labeled “conditioning shampoo” are provided though). Advertises housekeeping every three days, but did not show up. Expect to take your own trash out. I’m super tired of hotels milking the pandemic to bolster profits at the expense of proper hospitality.

First…the staff was very friendly so this review does not reflect on them. This was a very cheap room so I didn’t expect perfection, but… The bathroom door was insanely scratched up…it looked like someone got stuck in there and had to claw their way out. There were blood spots on the bedspread of one bed so we didn’t use that one. There was hair on the bathroom floor. And the room had bleach fumes so bad that my eyes burned. You can also hear the toilets running in adjacent rooms.

Our visit was as expected. Room cleanliness was okay. Restroom vent was dirty and had not been cleaned lately! The bulbs were the least expensive that money can buy so the room was dark and gloomy. The A/C unit was very loud! You could not hear the tv without raising the volume when the unit was running. Oh and the ice machine was Out of service and did find until later that night after the office was closed.
