Great for a budget that’s walkable into manitou.

We were trying to do an economical getaway, this place was just fine. No frills, but the staff was super friendly and responsive. We spent most of our time outside, and this was a nice, clean place to lay our heads. Best of all we got to have our dog with us and that made it great.

The proximity of this hotel to area attractions is very convenient. Our room was very spacious and breakfast is provided, which is a plus. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. Outside dining options are within walking distance. There is a nice, peaceful park across the street. Some of the rooms have a direct view of Pike's Peak. Nice clean and cold pool after a long day of activity.

Any issues I had were resolved on my stay. On day 10 of our 14 day road trip and the beds got me my best nights of sleep. The ac worked good. Nice little pool area. It’s an older place just like a lot of the other stuff on this side of town but it’s a mile from so many things. Definitely recommend
