Charming place!
Pros:

The room was not your typical "cookie cutter" room. I had the charm of early days of travel.

Cons:

Because of the time that it was built the parking garage only accommodates small vehicles. Not really an issue.

The shampoo and soap dispenser in the shower was empty.

Good value for money on a 1 night stay and well located.
Pros:

The Motel was well located in walking distance to the centre and shuttle bus to Pikes Peak

Cons:

The motel had a limited breakfast offer, so chose to have breakfast off site.

Pros:

Location and pool

Cons:

We had one of the cabins. It did not have a fridge, microwave and coffeemaker. The rooms that are part of the main motel included these items. When I booked the rooms I didn’t realize there was a difference

Very clean and well maintained, and the location is perfect!
Pros:

The location is what make this a great choice! You can walk to up and down the street to shops, restaurants, bars and almost all the Springs. (Even the walk to the cog railway station is do-able from here)

Cons:

Bathrooms are small in these older buildings but were well-appointed and I liked the "split" so we could both get ready at the same time. A nightlight would be a good addition (I always bring one when I travel).

Incredible staff, great location and comfortable rooms.
Pros:

The location was great with the free Manitou Shuttle stop right outside the door for those with some mobility issues.
For those who wish to walk, everything was within distance - and a lovely town to walk in.
The staff were great, so friendly and helpful - they really do treat you like old friends.

Cons:

The hot tub wasn't very bubbly - although it was lovely to sit in.
I would also appreciate more options for breakfast - something hot and perhaps cereal. But, it is very clear on booking that this is not available and I am not sure where they would put it anyhow.
