Needed a place to sleep. Room was cold on entry - don’t like that. Price was higher than I would have liked for a hotel
Pros:

Close to school of Mines and access to interstate.

Cons:

Confusing to reach because of street configuration. Lack of street lighting on roads to the hotel made it confusing without a drive app

Pros:

It was clean and beds were comfortable

Cons:

No coffee of any kind in rooms. We had to ask for it and carry it up to our room. One working single cup at a time coffee in the breakfast area. There were constant lines for this. We ended up going out for breakfast to avoid the lines for coffee

Very expensive, not that nice, very convenient
Pros:

The proximity to Red Rocks is stellar. The pool was large. The room was nicely equipped with microwave and fridge area

Cons:

1. The room was not clean: sticky spill on the counter and floor
2. There was a single nightstand for 4 of us between two beds
3. Breakfast hours end at 9:30 which is way too early.
4. The hot tub was not clean and well maintained

Adequate but nothing special
Pros:

Proximity to highway and event location

Cons:

Staff on arrival seemed completely uninterested in my arrival. Double-charged for a purchase which was corrected although it took quite a long time. Also minimal amenities in the room considering how expensive it was for one night. Uncomfortable lumpy bed. 11 am checkout seems unreasonable. I would have preferred a noon checkout time.

Pros:

Clean and comfortable rooms. Pool and spa were great. Breakfast spread was adequate.

Cons:

You needed to sign up for wifi or pay. The air conditioner was noisy and went on/off all night. We couldn't turn it off.

For 200 a night, you can find better.
Pros:

It was ok. Nothing great.

Cons:

The room had a cracked toilet, the bathroom door wouldn't lock unless you pushed hard on the door. The heat/ac was run off of a thermostat so if you sleep with a fan, you will not have the white noise you are used to. There is a construction company that has back up alarms that you will hear late in the night but it will help drowned out the noise of the teenage girls constantly slamming their door and and running up and down the hallway.
