Great value

We got lucky and had a room on the lower level of the "back building". Our room had a sliding door that opened to a small deck overlooking the river. I've stayed in a lot of hotels all over the State, but this was the best exterior experience I've had. The bathroom fixtures were new and the bedding was very comfortable. Excellent experience.

Worked for us. The proximity to Fish Creek Falls was okay. Continental breakfast left a bit to be desired. I don’t think the lady likes her job. 😞 Front desk staff were wonderful! The discount for the hot springs spa across the road was very much appreciated as were the extra towels. Would definitely stay here again.

An older hotel, one that we have stayed in the past when visiting Steamboat. Very convenient to downtown. We just parked the car and walked. We also walked to the wedding we were attending at the Botanic Gardens. Clean and comfortable and a friendly staff. We'd stay there again.

Have stayed here before & it’s been fine for a quick economical stay in Steamboat. This time there was food left in fridge from last occupants, only 2 thin pillows on the bed, & room extremely small. Feel like I paid too much for nothing special.
