The rooms at this hotel are not safe. This hotel is using thin white extension cords to plug in their refrigerators and microwaves. Refrigerators and microwaves don’t have a dedicated plug. Extension cords are only supposed to be used on a temporary basis. This hotel is a fire hazard.

We actually ended up having to extend our stay due to hospitalization of a family member and the hotel accommodated without issue. I normally only care about a bed to sleep in but we ended up staying in our room quite a bit. It’s very quiet around here even being close to 285, you barely hear the traffic! I never heard neighbors tv or conversations in our room (even though I heard talking walking in the hall)! The staff has been polite and helpful! The breakfast is pretty good (real eggs) with a decent variety!

Good day, for whom it may concern, I do like the design of the hotel (dinosaurs), the place is “ok/good” for the price; the stuff wasn’t the most incredible but was ok, nice breakfast, nice pool and hot tub, I truly enjoyed it, I can tell that after spending so much money on Hyatt or Hilton at downtown, this small hotel has an incredible atmosphere that makes me want to go back to the hotel again, 8.88/10 (~130 dlls P/night). Pros: Nice hot tub. GYM. Good pool. Nice facilities on the room/hotel. Ice machine. Enough towels for the pool. Good A/C. Good buffet/breakfast. Good decoration, incredible for the kids, and adult. Good house kipper. Good location if you live in Lakewood or you plan to go to southwest plaza/Belmar park. Books for tourists. Dinosaurs. Excellent waffles. Good people on the kitchen. Nice Apples. Negative: No water/chips as gifts for your stay. Poor quality of the key for the room. Not security, (the people were smoking on the pool). The size of the gym is really small (if you will use it…, be advised). No bar service. Not an excellent clean room. You are faraway from downtown Denver. The parking lot can be problematic. No v.parking. No shows. Recommendations: Put a dinosaur in the key of the room, do some shows at least one day per week about dinosaurs, more promotion of the hotel, you can cover the pool/hot tub, put some toys on the pool, better illumination on the pool. Best wishes, Zauberer.
Good dinosaurs.
Nice lobby.
