A beautiful Hotel.
We stayed two nights during our 6000 mile road trip and this is our favorite hotel. The breakfast was amazing with a buffet and made to order omlets. Every staff we encountered were professional, friendly and helpful. I left an important item in my room after I checked out and they alerted me by phone!

Don't skip this Place!
I love that this doesn't feel like every other hotel. It is comfy and warm and the atmosphere is just different! The staff is amazing, responsive and seem to be just the happiest, working people I have encountered in a long time. On top of everything else the breakfast was delicious. I will always stay here when I go to Colorado Springs. ALWAYS!
