Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Staff was nice. Breakfast was good. I was not aware of renovations being done when I booked. Our room was at the end of a hallway and most rooms before ours were being remodeled and doors, walls, dust and other things were in the hallway. Our bathroom was gross, with microbial growth on the ceilings, door did not close. It would have been very difficult for my handicapped dad to go back down to leave to find another hotel. My daughter was sleeping in one of the top bunks, rolled over and hit the rail that literally cracked, broke and fell down. It was so loud, I thought she fell off the top bunk. If I would have known about our room status and location, I would have asked for two normal rooms on the side already renovated, if that existed. It could be a nice place, close to Mesa Verde NP.
