The bed is super comfy, beautiful view! Room was nicely spacious. Little things to fix and update as they go along like furniture in the room, pretty wobbly, and tub handles/drain fixtures that need screwing on better. Nice to be able to open windows! Love frrsh air to sleep in. Very nice front desk person. Got a better rate thru expedia. Only reasonable place with a hottub in the room!

Picked this one based on reviews, Check in was quick and the Staff pleasant. My card was ran early on the day of check in, which was weird as I was supposed to pay upon check in. The parking lot had not been cleared but I was advised that there was someone coming. They did eventually show up but I think they just pushed the snow around. The lot in front of our room was never shoveled and it was at least 6in deep, we stayed a few days, the snow was still there when we left. The room was clean but out dated. The floor is in need of repairs. The room has a wall heater that didnt seem to heat the room very well. I had called the front to see what could be done and I was told if the room didnt heat in 30 mins I could be moved to another room, We just bundled up and eventually it warmed up. The smoke detector was missing. The bathroom was very small but clean. The water pressure was good and the water was hot. Would pass on this one next time around.

The location was great, but the breakfast was not as edible as we would have liked. Additionally, the room door didn't full close so the room did get colder than we would have liked. We did enjoy our stay, but we would probably like to see some upgrades and maybe they can swing for some good coffee.

Great little In for the money!

Here for one night during our trip to Rocky Mountain National Park. Check-in was easy and the room was spotless. It was probably one of the cleanest rooms I have ever stayed in. All of the little conveniences were included. I would definitely recommend if you are staying in the Estes Park area.
