My visit to the LaQuinta at Cherry Creek was very enjoyable. My first impression was that of a dated hotel that was a little run down. There is considerable road construction in the area. However my room was clean and comfortable. I asked for a room away from the freeway and it was very quiet. The beds were great and the breakfast offered a good variety of choices. I would definetly stay here again, the staff was very friendly. I agree with one other review that the Cherry Creek name is bit deceiving. The hotel is at the intersection of Colorado Blvd and I-25, miles from Cherry Creek area.

We had stayed at this La Quinta during a memorable snowstorm some 25 years ago, so I knew it was older when I booked it. It was the only reasonable alternative near DU.

It is old and looks like a 1960's motel, with doorways opening to the outside. It's also been the victim of extensive freeway construction - the interchange of I-25 and Colorado Blvd. now comes perilously close to some of the rooms. Having said that, I think that this hotel is a good example of good maintenance. Everything worked, the room was clean and the bed comfortable. I've seen a lot of hotels this age which suffer from benign neglect, but this one has been well cared for and wears its age well. The location is prime (right by a soon-to-be-completed light rail stop which will whisk you downtown in minutes) and I bet La Quinta is keeping the land and in a few years will replace it with a high rise.

I recently stayed with my sister and a friend at the La Quinta Cherry Creek for the U2 concerts up in Denver. This was my first time staying in a La Quinta in quite a while, and I must say I was a little disappointed.

This place would rank low even among other La Quintas. This could easily pass for a Motel 6 or a low-end Days Inn quite honestly. It is a two-story motel with doors opening outside to the parking lot. The La Quinta looks run down and the parking lot is not very secure. The worst part about it is the freeway noise. Its pressed up against the exit ramp to Colorado Blvd. and you will hear cars and trucks all night. Earplugs are a must for a good night's sleep. The beds were stiff and not very comfortable.

The "Cherry Creek" title is a bit misleading - the motel is really nowhere near the well known Cherry Creek district of Denver. "University" might be a better title since it's right by the University of Denver.

The only redeeming thing about this place was the free breakfast every morning (excellent!). Also, there's a lot of good restaurants nearby. You can get to downtown Denver in 15-20 minutes from here. But for $65 a night, you can do a lot better than this place either in the I-25/Colorado Blvd area or elsewhere in Denver.
