"The hotel wasn't in the best shape, and remodeling was underway. There was paint falling off the walls, and the room numbers were taped on the doors. Housekeeping didn't service our room during our stay. The view of the hill from the window was underwhelming. Because of Covid, the pool wasn't open and there was no breakfast. Stay somewhere else.2020-06-17"

"I requested a 1st floor non-smoking room, but got a room on the 3rd floor that reeked of smoke. The hotel clerk said she'd call when another room had been serviced, but that never happened. We ended up sleeping with the AC on high and the window open. Don't recommend.2015-08-22"

"The hotel room was fine. I liked the breakfast bar. The hotel couldn't help us when we got stranded at the end of the light rail line, and there were no taxis available. 2016-08-10"
"There was a bug in the room the 1st night. We were given a room change, but no one helped us move our belongings. The hotel manager never called as promised. Not the standard I expected.2017-06-04"

"The phone in the room didn't work. The cold water faucet in the shower was broken, which we didn't find out about until 10 PM. When I called the hotel clerk, he said maintenance could come before the night was over, but we said no since it was already late. We were leaving early in the morning, so we never got to shower. The manager never returned our calls. 2023-06-16"
"I was disappointed with this hotel. It was old and tired. My room's door lock was broken. The bathroom door was hard to close because the bathroom was so cramped. Find another place to stay.2023-04-25"

"The hotel was nice, and the room was always clean. The staff was pleasant, helpful, and respectful. I felt safe and enjoyed the quiet.2017-11-19"
"The location didn't seem safe. There were people loitering in the parking lot when we arrived at 1 AM. The room smelled like smoke. The bed was tiny, and there was hair all over the sheets. When we complained to the hotel clerk, we were told that the sheets were changed twice a week, which was unacceptable. With some persuading, the clerk allowed us to move with our small dog to a suite that was cleaner. We had to have our key card re-programmed twice. The back of the building was poorly lit, and the entrance wasn't kept locked. Not a good stay.2017-10-06"
"The price was fair, the hotel room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. The sink didn't drain well, and the shower faucet ran. Not happy about the $100 damage deposit hold on my credit card.2017-05-26"

"There was nothing at breakfast for someone who avoids gluten.2019-01-28"
"I had a pretty good stay at this hotel. Nice room with a kitchen and sofa. I was on the top floor, so it wasn't noisy. Limited TV channel selection, and no movie rental available. The day I left, I was asked 3 times if I was leaving and if the room was available. I felt I was being pushed out early.2015-08-24"

"Convenient located. The hotel was pleasant, but only one elevator was working and the wait was long.2018-02-19"
"Convenient to Red Rocks Amphitheater. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. The side door of the hotel was locked when we returned, so we had to walk all around the building to the front. The card reader for our room stopped working. Great breakfast bar.2017-07-11"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
