The front desk got my reservation wrong the first time I had to go back and show them my confirmation number and then they said that I owed more money because my card didn’t go through Expedia correctly somehow and I had to explain that I paid the full amount upfront and I had to show them the receipt from Expedia. I almost got screwed over and got stuck with a basic room when I paid for a higher end private condo that they provide. Staff knowledge could be increased

Convenient and affordable hotel that’s central to everything in Estes Park / short walk to the lake. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was renovated. Only issue is it is a bit loud when people walk by the room but not that big of a deal.
