Good stay in Leadville

Surprisingly very clean room. Spacious enough for me and a bike. Bathroom spotless. Great location. I had an issue with check in but i think it was a rare tech issue and the human customer service was excellent. I'll stay here again.

That property was quaint, but there was no signs on where the hotel was. And how to enter it, the coat to the door did not work. So I had to call the reservation desk to get it taken care of The lady was very friendly and fixed the problem quickly. There are no special amenities to this. The only thing that was posted was a hot tub, which was out of commission.

I got here very tired and needed to go to my room. I did not get the code via email, it malfunctioned, and the girl who answered the phone had no idea what to do. Finally got in after calling again. It was now 30 minutes. Then, no wifi code. I had to call and get that. The hot tub is broken, you can hear everyone through the walls, and no one has offered any concession.

Spacious, clean, no frills

The room was very spacious and clean and had everything you need (soap, lotion etc). It's about a 15-minute walk from downtown. The only downside is the walls work pretty thin and we could hear other people often. The hot tub was also out of order. The front desk was very accommodating when we had some issues getting into town and tried to change rooms

On arrival we did not have power to our room. There were no staff on site to help and when we called the posted number (twice) we did not receive a callback for 2.5 hours. When we did it was very unprofessional. “Do you have power?” No identification as a staff member and no apology. After some discussion we did receive a partial refund for our trouble and they did eventually get the power restored, but waiting and wondering if we should try to find another room wasn’t how we wanted to spend our night. Generally the room was clean and comfortable, but the property is rough with no signage to indicate it was in fact the Old Tale Inn until you are out of your vehicle. The rooms are fronted by a glassed in hallway that was baking in the sun all day, making our room incredibly warm. (No ac which we did know in advance.) Little details like pieces of rebar holding the windows closed, random piles of junk in the hall and upholstery falling apart made it feel very shabby. Appreciated the refund, because none of this was worth the more than $200 per night rate we had initially paid. Do not recommend.
No light fixture or lightbulb.

Great stay - only complaint is we ran out of toilet paper and didn’t have an option to ask someone for clean towels since no staff on site. However, was walkable to downtown, hot tub was nice and room was clean and comfortable.

Charming

Nothing fancy but it was clean which is always important for us. No fridge or microwave in the room but they had a community area to use. That was unique. The king room we stayed in was cozy and very comfortable. We absolutely recommend and I know we will be staying there again.
