We were traveling to Colorado and needed a place to spend the night. The staff were very friendly and the hotel was clean and comfortable. They allow dogs for a very reasonable price so that was a bonus for us.

Staff was not friendly, laundry room was covered in drywall dirt from wall repair and big piles of debris inside, hot tub wasn’t even warm and was murky, found a flea on me in the room, fellow traveler found bugs in bathroom they had to kill, our tub backed up with sitting water with any water on in it, beds were very hard, breakfast was not worth staying for (powder eggs, small offerings mostly bread things). It was a quiet place, the shower was good for spray and no temperature fluctuations. Overall, not the nicest place and I wouldn’t stay again.

The water at our sink did not work. We got in late and just wanted to go to sleep. Went to brush out teeth. We at this point did not want to change rooms so we used the bathtub faucet. When told staff they were rude and said it was not her fault. Really??
