Know that the facility was constructed in 1934 based on the network/username for login and personal observation. They have upgraded the facility as best as possible given engineering handicaps of an elderly building. The rooms are miniscule and are best for an overnight only. With that said, the staff is EXCEPTIONAL. They went above and beyond to accomodate any reasonable request. We had a before 7 am departure so couldn't do breakfast. They provided a microwave and coffee maker to allow us a quick breakfast. That was outstanding service. The facility is probably as close as you'll get for access to Eldora ski area which is about 25+ minutes away through winding Boulder Canyon.

Room was great, everything worked perfectly, nice location. Choose room 13. Best room IMO. The staff had great customer service. -Hot tub is for the one Executive Suite which booked before I had a chance to get it, but was unclear about the hot tub being for exclusive use only. The sauna is available for guests though. The lady in the office was very kind and went above and beyond for breakfast and with service. Will book again! Thank you for the hospitality!
