Check-in was fantastic! Since my flight arrived prior to 1500 I was concerned about whether I could check-in early but this was no problem as the staff let me in the room several hours before standard check-in. The room did not have a refrigerator which I needed for my medication. Once again, the staff had a micro refrig delivered in less than 30 minutes.

Room was standard but the mattress and pillows were soft and very comfortable. Rooms on the west side have an excellent view of the mountains and downtown Denver. Hotel is within walking distance of Walmart and a few popular restaurants (Famous Dave's, Country Buffett). Rooms are interior and open up to a lovely atrium.

Hotel restaurant is a quality establishment, not great but the food is good with several excellent salads. There are several nice waitresses in the restaurant and a few are very pleasing to the eye. The bar is nicely arranged with several billard tables and food service. The bartender was prompt and courteous but she could be a little more chatty. There are wine and beer specials before 1800. The only draft beer selection is Coors (of course) which is a great beer but a wider selection would have been nice.

Fitness center is top-notch for a hotel. There are weights, treadmills, and elliptic equipment plus an indoor pool and sauna.

Concierge, during the day, was very customer service oriented and since I did not have a car, he provide shuttle service to the local establishments. The hotel has a frequent shuttle service to the airport.

Pros:
Great, attentive staff
Ambiance of lounge
Fitness center/pool
Mountain view (west side)

Cons:
Noise level (east side)
Distance to airport is almost 17 miles
Hotel is in an area in transition; retail establishments are being built but some industrial structures are nearby

Recommendations: Ask for room on west side; to see downtown Denver you will need a car as it is some distance away

Would stay here again.

Booked with a group a few weeks ago and we did not even get the rooms we wanted and the sales manger didnt seem to care after our booking. Gee thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Hotel is Awsome! We were there on a wednesday and stayed till friday. Although it was busy with meetings the pool and the excersize room was nice. If you like great views I would remecomend the west side so you could see the city with the mountains in the background. The east side of the hotel is where you can see nothing but landscape and the DIA (the airport).

Wife and I stayed here for a conference at the beginning of October. Overall it was a very positive experience. The lobby is actually pretty impressive, not at all what I was expecting to see when we drove up. I'll try to break it down for simplicity.

Room: Fairly basic hotel room. Quite clean with just minor signs of wear and tear (the hotel has signs up stating a complete major renovation in the very near future). I believe the entire hotel is smoke free, but if you get a room on the east or west side there are balconies that you can step out on to light up. Our room faced east which didn't provide a very good view... just a shopping center and industrial facilities. The west would provide a mountain view as well as downtown. Bed was a little hard and pillows were too soft, but that's just our preference.

Food/Room Service/Bar: We had a great time down in the hotel bar. We had an excellent bar tender who treated us great anytime she was working. I wish I could remember her name to give her Kudos. The bar was never really busy and we could watch TV and shoot pool as much as we wanted. We ate at the hotel restaurant a couple times, dinner and breakfast. The food was good, not remarkable, but very adequate. Especially since you are in a remote part of the city and the choices are rather limited for food near by. Room service was always very prompt and hot. No problems there at all.

Location: Probably the major drawback in my opinion... it was a bit of a drive to downtown and to many restaurants. Other than that, very good. Free parking too in a garage, which was nice.
