We enjoyed our stay. The bed was comfortable but the room is rather care worn and needs updating. The front desk area and breakfast room is very nice (they had nice fresh fruit) and tastefully decorated. The value for the money we paid definitely off set the tired looking room

Check in was good but the hotel just opened for the season and do not have correct information on their website. We did not have access to the pool, hot tub or any of those amenities. The breakfast they served appeared to be day old muffins and coffee, not the continental breakfast advertised. The room was perfect but the beds were not the best. The mattresses slumped in the middle causing horrible sleeping conditions.

Beautiful king suite with fireplace in sitting area. Nive size bedroom, no view, but nice. Hallway carpets were clean, room carpets were clean. people using pool, but we did not. Convenient to Keystone town and easy, quick drive to monument. Breakfast changed daily with normal choices, breakfast staff was fun and engaging with travelers and conversation. Laundry area was nice with two washers and dryers. Very convenient for a long trip. Parking a bit of a challenge if you were out late at monument lighting. Very nice stay.
