Nice Stay at a Nice Hotel

The property is in a nice location near a bus stop and an electric bike rental. The rooms are very clean, and the maid service was great in refreshing our room every afternoon. The breakfast had several good options, and the people working the desk were very polite. A slightly long walk to downtown Manitou, but again, there's bus lines and electric bikes.

Very clean and offered breakfast. Just seriously outdated. More of a motel than hotel, with doors to outdoor rather than hallway making it feel less safe. Not quite close enough to be walkable to downtown, but could do in a pinch if you aren’t tight on time. The room was spacious, just needs updating.

Expedia rated this hotel 3 stars. This is so rundown and old. The correct rating would be 1 maybe. This is first time using Expedia. Never again

Nothing special for this price. The price is base on two occupants, so expect additional fees if you have 4 people. We stayed there one night, 2 rooms. The offered breakfast... I will not call a breakfast. The staff was quite nice and patiently answering my questions.

In an area with older motels this one was a very good choice. It was a throwback to motels before all of the corporate chains took over. It it's obviously an older property but it is well maintained and kept up to date. We would definitely stay here if we were to return to Colorado Springs.

Overpriced, but comfortable bed in good location

The room was good enough to sleep and wash comfortably. Dated but decent enough. After 3 weeks of traveling and staying in different hotels, i think this hotel was well over priced compared to the others. The breakfast was the bare minimum. I wouldnt necessarily recommend staying here, but if you need a shower and comfortable bed it suits that purpose and is close to all the local attractions
