Pros:

The beds were comfortable, however, linens appeared dirty. There was hair on the bathroom floor, tub had dark stains on bottom where you stand, toilet paper holder was broken, numerous electrical outlets didn't work so corner lamp didn't turn on, room didn't smell clean. Location is great. Near tons of restaurants, site seeing, and highways.

Great Location
Pros:

Very nice hotel - located near interstate and Colorado Mills Outlet Mall. Lots of choices for dining in the area. The breakfast was awesome. Not the run of the mill prepared stuff.
The only downside to it - the lighting in the room was lacking. For some reason designers seem to think that everyone wants low ambient lights instead multi leveled lights. The lack of lighting was a bit daunting for us - my husband has limited vision and it made him very uncomfortable.

Run away!
Pros:

Cleaning staff was great and so friendly. The hotel was run down and in terrible condition with poor lighting that made it feel like a crack house. The rugs were dirty and it felt like they just slapped paint on the walls to make what felt like a dump look presentable. All I could think was “this feels like a no-tell motel, I pray there aren’t bed bugs, and I’m sure this was a hotel used for homeless people during the pandemic.” I would never stay here again. Oh, and I was harassed by a homeless and toothless junkie as soon as I parked my car in the parking lot.

Pros:

The room had a strong unpleasant odor, and I found hair on both the pillow and the towel, which was very off-putting. I expected a higher standard of cleanliness and comfort from a Best Western property. The positive thing is the hotel is close to Golden.

Pros:

Provided breakfast was a plus and attract me to stay here. The rooms are minimal but can use an appearance update. The Lobby and Rooms in separate buildings caused a confusion when checking in. The Lobby is welcoming. The front desk was amazing. Guest had to wait numerous times for breakfast refills and had to ask attendant for refills.

Pros:

The staff were all really nice. The room was good enough for us as we were out and about a lot and the location was convenient but there was a weird smell in the room almost like smelly feet or shoes. Overall it didnt seem very clean or like it had been vacuumed or mopped well. Dirty counters and bathroom floor and shower. I had to wipe things down and rinse the shower myself. Bed seemed clean but found stains on the pillow cases. We aren't very picky so we didn't bother to make a fuss about it but would probably try somewhere else next time. Also the water pressure was insane, I like good pressure but it was so hard it actually hurt to shower.

Pros:

Staff was nice. Breakfast was terrible and cold. Room was non-smoking and our room reeked of smoke! Bathroom was so tiny. Poor lighting, small sink with poor lighting, very few plugs, awkward parking lot. No amenities that website promised. No hairdryer, iron, fridge, coffeemaker or microwave. Felt like a motel. We changed hotels after 1 night!
