This update on an older Estes Park hotel is looking really good. The room was just beautiful, though the shower was very hard to turn on. I had a little balcony and a table in my room. Very nice, especially for the price. Lots of other people have talked about the breakfast… It is definitely unusual, but entertaining and tasty. I liked the oatmeal bar best. The staff is young and energetic. I will definitely stay here again, especially if they keep their prices competitive for Orbitz customers

Most of the staff was very friendly. Our curtains were broken in our room and I was handed some clips to close them. Bathtub was so clogged it was gross. Asked for a roll away bed and was told they had none by someone because of the remodel and saw 2 of them in the closet next to our room. Even though when I checked in, the other staff member told me she would get one for me. Pool never had towels for guests unless you asked.

Pay attention to the reviews. This property rates right between a motel 6 and a motel 8. Not great for about $150 per night. THE CONS: * It is not ugly, but barebone basics. No desk/chair, vinyl flooring with no rugs * Bad job of caulking in shower, it is full of mildew * A glade scented air freshener was tacked onto the room air conditioner, the smell of it was overpowering * Pretty bad breakfast, we decided to go out to breakfast because both days because it was so bad * Our TV did not work. We called the front desk 3 times. The young woman told us she would be over shortly twice, but instead left when her shift ended. On the third call to the front desk, the young man came right over and fixed it, apparently housekeeping moved an infrared receiver and once it was replaced, everything worked fine. * Not a big deal because everyone brings their own phone now, but there are no phones in the room. You use your private phone to contact the front desk, as it has the ONLY phone in the hotel. THE PROS: Location

It was just ok. The staff was friendly. It felt more motel vibes as far as the rooms and set up. Just not really my favorite.

Average
I stayed for 2 nights with my small dog. I love that they are pet friendly and it was only $25 for the whole stay (not per night) for my dog. The room was clean and you can tell that they tried to update the rooms at some point, but they could use a bit more work. Regardless, the room was clean and that is what's most important to me. The bed was not the worst bed I've slept on, but it also wasn't particularly great. I liked having a small balcony as well. I did not partake in the breakfast, so no feedback on that. The staff was very friendly which was nice. My biggest issue was that it is too loud. You can hear EVERTHING that happens in the hallways and mine was very busy. Every word spoken, every footstep, etc.

The room wasn’t super clean. We had four people but only three large towels and two wash rags were provided. The breakfast was very odd and rather disappointing. .

The room was adequate . The black paint on the walls gave it a dark feeling in the room. The stool in the bathroom was very low making it uncomfortable to sit on. The personal in the check in and out area. Where very nice. Both were pleasant to deal with.
