It was clean, the staff was friendly. It is not the newest property, but it was clean and we liked having a fridge and microwave in our room. The staff went above and beyond to satisfy our needs.
The personnel were happy, and helpful. It was like a familiar, family atmosphere.

The manager and staff was very friendly and welcoming. They were helpful when we needed something. The location was close to everything and was convenient. Me and all my children had a good time and stay there. We hope to go back one day. Thank you for welcoming us and making our trip a good one!
Host was accommodating. I booked for the wrong day and they switched it over and had a room ready for us. The room was clean.

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 suite was perfect for 6 people in one room as it was a 3 bed suite. Kids loved the pool. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Only issue was our key card was not working frequently and new card had to be replaced several times.
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.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The overall stay was okay. Breakfast was cold. Staff was friendly. Building needs some remodeling
A very interesting decor choice. Bed was very comfortable. Everyone was nice. We were only there for one night. Nice area, convenient. I would stay again.
Ms Sharee (sp) was so accommodating! We had a trailer with a motorcycle on it and she went above and beyond to help us park and keep it safe. We felt like VIPs. Will absolutely be returning later in the summer!
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
Staff were very friendly. Unfortunately, the property doesn’t look anything like the pictures and is outdated in several areas. Beds were uneven and missing box springs.
Positive: the room was clean. Negative: several items needed maintenance, the breakfast was pathetic, the overall price was about double what it was worth.
Staff was nice. Good updates on pool area and lobby area. Rooms could use a bit of a remodel and the dilapidated structure from our window view was not appealing to say the least. Not their fault probably but the City should set in and advise.

Room was a lot smaller than we expected and bathroom was really really small. We paid 10 dollars more per night so we had a view of the mountains. We did have a nice view.. staff were really nice but had to look for them. No room for luggage etc.
