Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered a mixed experience with cozy rooms but limited in space and brightness. The service was exceptional, especially with thoughtful gestures towards my daughter, yet some minor inconveniences with transportation were noted. The location was convenient with easy access to the nearby hot springs and lovely outdoor spaces, although noise levels may vary. The dining experience was delightful with well-presented dishes, but some improvements could be made in terms of variety. Overall, a decent stay with notable positives and a few minor drawbacks.
Upon arriving at the hotel, the rooms were conveniently within walking distance, yet the heat was overwhelming due to open windows and un-drawn curtains. The makeshift AC unit was a bit of an eyesore, but the staff was always friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for exploring the nearby Hot Springs pool and downtown area, although the worn beds were not the most comfortable. While the dining experience in the main room was wonderful with great service, the meal quality left much to be desired. Overall, the hotel had its ups and downs, offering friendly service and a great location, but with room for improvement in terms of room comforts and dining options.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was spacious and tidy but uncomfortably hot upon arrival with a stubborn stain below the window. The service was mostly friendly and helpful, with minor forgetfulness. The location was ideal for exploring Glenwood Springs but had some safety concerns. Dining was hit or miss but some items were excellent.
