“A great choice for a one-night stay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2011

My husband & I spent the night here after a show at Red Rocks; it took us less than 15 minutes to get from there to the hotel, which was a priority for us! :)
We chose a non-smoking room on the third floor; we noticed while on the first floor, waiting for the elevator, that the entire corridor REEKED of stale cigarette smoke. Our floor, however, smelled just fine the night we checked in, though it was definitely a little musty-smelling the next morning.

Also, this location does NOT offer continental breakfast, but they do have a small coffee bar; there's a restaurant inside the hotel that we didn't check out.

Our room, while a bit small, was very clean; the bed was comfortable, though not as cushioned as I'd hoped.
My one complaint about our room is that the air conditioner was incredibly noisy and knocked so much that we couldn't keep it on while we slept. Beyond that, though, it made a great spot for a one-night stay! We were right across the street from a Travel America (great for making a late-night cereal run) and there was a pretty lake right next to our hotel that made for a pretty view in the morning :)

Room Tip: We found that booking through the Howard Johnson site directly cost the same as the cheapest rate we...

“I felt gross the whole time”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2011

All I could think about was bed bugs. The guy at the front desk was super helpful so I feel bad writing a terrible review but my husband and I just felt gross the entire 1 night we spent there and could not wait to get out And on with our vacation. We only paid $50 for our stay, but we had just come from a great family owned motel that was about the same price so we figured it would be about the same quality.

The place smelled like smoke, although we did have a non smoking room (which smelled ok), it's directly across from a huge TA with tons of semis and a bar in te bottom where they all go hang out. It's in a sketchy part of town so no walks, and when we drove over to the local ballfield to watch fireworks the people watching was 'interesting' to say the least.

I would recommend staying anywhere else.

“Extremely rude.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2011 via mobile

I found the staff to be completely unprofessional, rude, and argumentative. Shuttle driver refused to transport my service dog, and repeatedly called me on my cell phone after the fact to argue.

“Sleazy”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2007

Rooms did not look at all like they did online, the ceiling was falling in and we were told it was just a stain. Well a stain does not fall onto the bed.. Our feet stuck to the floor, this place was gross and dirty... There were what appeared to be hookers hanging out by the doors, homeless people in the stairwells with notes on the outside doors to close them to keep these people out... The beds were hard and old. The internet didnt work for most of our stay.The staff were indifferent and could not provide any area info such as food choices and the like. We will never stay there again...

  • Liked — Nothing, it was very bad!
  • Disliked — Everything...
