The hotel is fine. Clean and confortable. The area seems safe but not a very nice location. For the price it is fine. Dogs can stay for a decent fee. Breakfast a litlle bit above average. Friendly personal.

The hotel should not list hot tub for use
I wish I would have known the hot tub was not operational. I booked this place specifically for the ability to have a soak after my red rocks show.

Okay for a place to sleep.
I selected this hotel because it indicated that there was an indoor pool, which my kiddo was very much looking forward to. The pool area was outdoors and closed for maintenance.
Clean enough. Excessive on the dated dinosaur motif. It was a place to sleep, but I wouldn't choose it again for an adventure with my kids.
