I discovered this Red Lion hotel on Quebec street because it shares the airport shuttle with the Hilton Doubletree. I have been here twice in winter and in summer on week-ends. There seems to be a regular budget seeking customer on the week-ends, mostly young families with van loads of kids, or college student athletes traveling to Colorado for competition. Yes, it is an older hotel, and some of the rooms are being renovated. And, the freight trains blow their whistles as they pass at night. It is just two blocks from a great shopping area with fast food restaurants and plenty of stores. The on-site restaurant is okay, and serves a buffalo burger. I joined the Red Lion frequent guest club, and ask for an up-grade when I check in. So far, that has worked to put me into one of their better rooms at rack rates. It's just a little hard to find the access road leading to the hotel from the Quebec Street North access road.
