Good stay
The first room we had did not have TV service. We were moved to another room, which was right across the hall from the other room (easily moved our belongings). The new room was equally as clean and nice as the and the tv worked. The young man helping at the front desk was very polite.

Property NOTHING like photos. Very run-down, both inner room and outer hallway doors had to be pushed hard to shut. Peeling paint visible. Looked like it had not been updated ever. Old. SHOWER DID NOT WORK - water knob just spun and spun, only small trickle through faucet, nothing through shower at all. Reported to front desk but no remedy or apologies.

Check in was easy and worker was nice. Problem started in the hallway the front entrance was dirty there was bandages wraps on the floor. Room looked neat enough… but carpet was dirty, walls over by coffee maker was splattered with coffee, and there was a blood stain on the bathroom tub. I had drove 8 hours and was going to call down but there is no phones to call down and I exhausted and was just going to notify then the next morning. The line to speak to the worker was very long so we decided to return after breakfast… there was always a line to wait to talk to someone. Our check out morning the worker (different from the first) saw us standing at the desk and continued to conversant with some other guest. He started to walk out and told us to just leave the keys on the desk and we were good to go. We actually remembered that we had left something behind and went back to see if we could get it… worker was still outside talking to other guest and we were able to just grab the key off the desk go get what we forgot and return the key. And the worker was still outside! After the long drive I did not have the patiences to even try to talk to anyone… not clean, and not great service.

Accommodating staff clean rooms and facility. Reasonable price. Accessibly to downtown Estes Park with a nice view & location. The downside is, very limited options for breakfast. The Elk chili is not for me & my family, I hope the management will take this into consideration since not all tourist with kids are not willing to experiment & try exotic food. Add more options & variety for breakfast like simple & warm breakfast, ex. scrambled eggs, sausage & beacons & some pancakes or waffles. Because tourists will also remember the breakfast menu & will definitely comeback for that & will highly recommend the place. Nevertheless with had a great time at Estes Park.

This update on an older Estes Park hotel is looking really good. The room was just beautiful, though the shower was very hard to turn on. I had a little balcony and a table in my room. Very nice, especially for the price. Lots of other people have talked about the breakfast… It is definitely unusual, but entertaining and tasty. I liked the oatmeal bar best. The staff is young and energetic. I will definitely stay here again, especially if they keep their prices competitive for Orbitz customers

Most of the staff was very friendly. Our curtains were broken in our room and I was handed some clips to close them. Bathtub was so clogged it was gross. Asked for a roll away bed and was told they had none by someone because of the remodel and saw 2 of them in the closet next to our room. Even though when I checked in, the other staff member told me she would get one for me. Pool never had towels for guests unless you asked.
