Was a very pleasant stay, good people make good places. The staff were great, a shout out to the manager Neon, and his wonderful staff Lakshay, Calem, Reek, Natasha and Ethan. The hospitality was above and beyond some places I have stayed like the Viceroy Hotel in Vail. The tea was always readily available and the coffe just kept flowing. Anything in and everything to do in Denver is within extremely easy access thanks to the Multitude of public transit routes in the area. If you want a ride even as far out as Nederland, Co its 2025 and only $5.50 for a day pass or as little as $2.70 if you qualify for a discounted pass. The 16th street mall is within walking distance with 2 different free buses available. One of which runs every 10-15 minutes. Tons of museums like the Firefighters museum, the convention center, Santa Fe art district (full of local artists), children's museum, The Bellco theater for the performing Arts, a cultural museum, night clubs, bars, sports stadiums, and ballrooms if interested in different styles from classical to swing to even break dancing. 4 grocery stores near by and even a convenience store just 6 minute walk away. The cleanliness of the place was just immaculate and impressive. The property is very well maintained by Quitin(?) The gentleman is a true Caballero. And Ethan is always ready to help where ever he can with his medic kit. The tram here deserves a Bravo and standing ovation 👏 🙌 👌 👍 💪

I made my reservation for Ember Hostel Nov 13 to 15, received the email confirmation, that the reservation is made and I will pay upon arrival, I had a redeye flight from NYC, arrived at the airport around 130am and made it to the Ember about a little after 3am, walked in and there was no attendant, a sign was posted that the person will be back in 5minutes and if need assistance ring the bell, which I did, waited and walked around the lobby area, there was a person passed out/sleeping in the common area, out cold, not sure if he was a guest or one of the staffer, after a few minutes went back to the front desk and rang the bell again, at this point another guest was also in the lobby area and also rang the bell, 3 times and no one showed up at the desk, I sat down next to the vending machine and waited a few more minutes, it was getting close to 4am and at this point I booked another room at Days Inn a few blocks away. I called their number the next day and left a message, no call back, and had also checked my account and I was charged $94.51, I have their emails that said it was a reservation and payment will be made upon arrival. Not a very good experience.
