The balcony view was beautiful. It's open, making it easy to connect with other guests. The space is quiet, clean, and faces the mountains at the back of the property. We especially enjoyed watching the many hummingbirds at the active feeders. One downside is that there's no way to control the temperature in the room. One of us slept well, while the other woke up feeling hot. If you prefer a cooler sleeping environment, consider bringing a portable fan—and don’t forget an extension cord. Overall, we would definitely stay here again.

While the check in process was fairly easy and welcoming, make sure to not walk out of the far exit on floors 3-5 to the outdoor stairwell because the doors will lock behind you and you will be stuck outside above the 3rd floor with no phone service. Banged on the door for 30 minutes before I could get someone to let me inside and the front desk lady said that it’s an exit only and then you have to jump off the 4th floor if you wanna get out, so good luck.

The location is a challenge for anyone running a hotel. Not in a community and at a very high altitude, it's got to be difficult to keep up. It does feel like investment dollars are needed. The only complaint we had was there is ZERO signage for this hotel right now. Not sure why, maybe waiting on a replacement, but not even a piece of paper in the window telling you this is a hotel.

Nobody at the front counter, you will end up waiting 3 hours in order to simply check-in... This is your typical trucker stop lodge with zero frontdesk staff.

Had a bug crawl on my face while staying at this location. Called the front desk multiple times, had the hotel operator also call so I could just switch rooms. Did not get a room change. Cancelled the next day and got a different place. 0/10 if I could.

Wonderful stay! It was enough for what we needed. We stayed one night, it has a nice trail with a river running by it and a small pond with fish. Staff was friendly and informative. The place itself is a little outdated but it was ok! It had a pool, a gym area, a sauna, and hot tubs with a view. Very nice place. 😊

The room space was good. It appears to be a warehouse or industrial building that was changed into a hotel.? The check in hostess was super friendly and amazing (the biggest redeeming value). I would definitely ask for third floor or above as third was the main. Just a little creepy overall. Sheets were clean. Everything else was pretty old. I was trying to stay near Buena Vista and it comes up on Expedia as if it were in or near Buena Vista but it’s 40 minutes away.

Once is enough

The first room they gave us hadn't been cleaned. We got a balcony room and the view was beautiful, it would've been nice to have chairs to sit out there. The room was comfortable as was the bed. We checked ice machines on 2 floors, neither one worked. Finally found one that did by the lobby.
