I booked an accessible room but when I got there I realized that the room didn't have grab bars for the toilet, only the shower. I went to the front desk. They were so kind and immediately worked out which rooms they had available that actually had grab bars in the toilet vs the shower. They were able to book me a room that had the correct bars so call ahead if you need grab bars to get off the toilet. The staff were so helpful. The property was clean. The room was clean. The bed was so uncomfortable that it made for a restless night.

Room was clean although the carpet appeared a little old (maybe the color). The shower could use fresh caulk. Otherwise it was fine. Excellent breakfast and great location. Convenient to downtown restaurants. Stayed here before, three years ago. Would stay again.

Better than average.

Easy access on and off I70 but close enough that you do hear some traffic from the freeway. Didn’t keep us awake, though. Nice breakfast choices. Room was clean and comfy. Negatives: kinda noisy. Could hear noise from other rooms. Bath looked clean but caulking around tub needed to be cleaned and/or replaced.
