Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were ultra clean and comfortable, the service was top-notch, and I enjoyed a made-to-order breakfast all for a great price under per diem for Colorado Springs. The location was wonderful, but the property shows its age in some areas.
The hotel is conveniently located with easy access to the main dining and recreation areas. The rooms are clean, but the thin walls can be bothersome for light sleepers. The service is friendly but somewhat forgetful at times. The dining experience offers excellent meals, especially the made-to-order omelettes and fresh waffle bar. The facilities are adequate, but some areas could be better maintained.
