Positive Reviews
positive:
Smart and modern decor
Quite a number of guests remarked that it looked as if the hotel had been renovated fairly recently. The décor and furnishings, both in the rooms and public areas, were said to look very chic and modern, with guests approving of the design scheme used.
positive:
Good Wi-Fi
While only mentioned by a couple of guests, since it is the kind of thing that is usually taken for granted, it was said that the Wi-Fi system was especially good. Guests found it to both reliable and offer data speeds more than fast enough for their purposes.
positive:
Decent value for money
While rates do vary widely, depending on demand, several guests mentioned that they found the hotel's rates to be quite reasonable, compared to what else was available for their booking dates.
Negative Reviews
negative:
No elevator
While not mentioned by many guests, it was pointed out that the hotel does not have an elevator. While it isn't exactly a high rise, some guests nonetheless mentioned that it was a pain to have to climb up and down even a single flight of stairs multiple times a day. Also, those with mobility issues many struggle.
negative:
Noise from the highway
The hotel is right on Highway-40, and much of the traffic into and out of Steamboat Springs passes along this way. Guests with rooms facing the highway mentioned that they could clearly hear the traffic noise in their rooms, resulting is some issues, especially for light sleepers.
negative:
Very disappointing breakfast
While the hotel does make attempts to include hot foods like sausages in its breakfast line-up, guests weren't much impressed. They felt that the continental part of the breakfast was too limited and the additional hot items neither prepared nor presented well enough to really be appealing.
