We went with another couple for 2 nights on Sept 9 2011 because they were offering a 2 night package which included 2 night lodging, 2 pool passes and 2 dinners for $169.00. WE had a nice time. Here is a breakdown.

Motel: We thought we made a huge mistake when we dove into the parking lot. We checked the room ffirst before we checked in because it looked so run down and dirty from the outside. The room is dated but clean. The bathroom was updated. We did not run the AC. There is table with 2 chairs, refrigerator and microwave, phone and TV.

Amenties: Great for such a little motel.
Cookies in afternoon
Sweet Tea all day long
Breakfast: Bisquits and gravey, danish, bagel, OJ, coffee
Bathroom: Toothpaste, ladies face cream, an ample size tube of body lotion, men's hair gel, hairdryer
Backyard: BBQ Grill, table and chairs, swing, Hot Tub
Microwave and refrigerator,


Staff: Very nice and customer oriented! Always smiling. 24 hour front desk service. They could not do enough for you., We ran out of towels and kleenix, We got them right away.
Gave us helpful information about where to eat and play. Great staff! I felt very welcome.

Housekeeping: the only negative is that we did not get housekeeping service until 4:00 pm. We said no to the service because we just got back from the hot springs and were in the process of taking a shower. Our friends across the hall did get their service early in the am.

Don't judge a book by its cover, it is old but very nice!

Hotel was at least fifty years old. Needs some serious remodeling. All common areas had no AC. It was 90+ in the hallways and the eating areas. The room AC took 1/2 the night to even begin to cool the rooms on the second floor. Maybe try the hotel in the winter.

This hotel is right off the highway, but is not the exit with all the main attractions in Glenwood Springs. The room was pretty clean, except for hair in the corners on the floor. Our air conditioner kept turning off in the night and then turning back on, which was noisy. The breakfast was bagels with packaged cream cheese, biscuits and gravy, danishes, coffee and orange juice. The rooms have small refrigerators, but if you put something in there, be sure to turn the temperature down so it is not frozen in the morning. They allow pets, but if you book a room with a pet, the person that takes the booking may not really write that down, so be sure to remind them about it when you get there, so they don't yell at you. Overall, it is an adequate place to stay for one night, but is nothing special.

The Affordable Inn is my kind of place - somewhere that has the combination of both the best rates and best service. What is not to like? A twenty-four hour desk and round-the-clock complimentary brewed coffee and tea in the lobby. Super HBO with five different channels. Wake-up calls. Free WiFi. An expanded complimentary continental breakfast that makes the room that much more a bargain.
