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.

Great easy, affordable, low-frills stay in Leadville for a ski weekend at Copper. Staff was incredibly friendly. Room was clean. Would stay again.

We booked this property for the hot tub! We did not use the hot tub because it was dirty. It stunk really bad.

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.

I was hoping for a fridge and microwave in my room. The shared outdoor setup was a little odd and fridge was not cold. No management on site of the property.

Disappointing Stay at Old Tale Inn in Leadville

This is one “inn” that doesn’t live up to its name—or its price. As an experienced traveler (over 20 countries) I don’t often write hotel reviews, but my stay at the Old Tale Inn was so underwhelming that I feel compelled to share my experience to help others make an informed decision. Unfortunately, this so-called "Inn" fell far short of expectations and came across as both misleading and overpriced for what you get. Misleading Advertising First and foremost, this is not an inn or a hotel in any meaningful sense of the word. Calling it such borders on fraudulent. There was no staff presence during my stay—no front desk, no resident manager, no one to assist with even basic needs. The lack of human contact made the entire experience feel eerie and unwelcoming. Poor Directions and Uninviting Exterior The address provided was inaccurate, leading me to a dark, side street marked only by an old, defaced mailbox. The building’s exterior was painted a drab battleship grey, with no trim or signage to indicate it was a place of lodging. The parking lot, accessible via the main highway, was deserted, unlit, and added to the sense of abandonment. Arriving at night felt less like checking into an inn and more like stumbling upon an empty warehouse. The room itself was stark and uninviting, reminiscent of a prison cell. Everything was grey, with minimal decoration to create any sense of warmth or comfort. The amenities were sad: a coffee pot with no coffee or mugs.

The view from the property is great. But the service is off. After hours couldn’t get a hold of anyone. Had no coffee cups for the shared coffee press. Room with fridge and microwave had a single fork and knife and spoon. Rooms are styled well but bathrooms are untouched. Not sure I would stay again for the price and odd service setup. Maybe try other places first.
