We decided to stay here last minute for a couple of nights. For being the cheapest hotel we found, it was a pleasant experience. I rated it four stars for a few of reasons: 1) At first look, it seems really sketchy. The area made us both uncomfortable and we considered spending an extra $10 and going somewhere a bit nicer. However, our room was in great shape and was exactly what we needed. We just made sure that when we left the room, we left together so we weren't alone. It definitely is a trucker hotel, with a semi truck school right behind them. 2) Although we stayed in a non-smoking room, the room smelled bad of cigarette smoke. I'm not sure if maybe the people below us or next to us had a smoking room, or if people that stayed before us smoked in our room. It didn't smell the entire time but we would get whiff of it now and then. The hallways, the elevator, and the stair case reeked of cigarette and pot every time though. It was really disgusting. 3) The layout of the bathroom was weird. In order to close the bathroom door, you have to awkwardly position yourself, or even stand in the bathtub so you wouldn't get hit by the door. 4) The breakfast only is from 6am-9am. We were traveling the day before so we wanted to sleep in until 10am, but by then breakfast was over. I feel that extending breakfast one to two hours would really benefit the customers. The breakfast was simple, which I can't complain about. You get what you pay for, so I wasn't expecting anything more than what we got. The coffee was terrible though, so we actually stopped by a McDonalds after we checked out the last morning to buy some good coffee. 5) The TV was awful, you couldn't watch half the channels that were listed, and the ones you could watch were disrupted by static noises and bad visuals the entire time. However, with these five negatives, I do have five positives to comment on: 1) the staff is super nice. Housekeeping came by super early the first morning and I was in the process of getting ready. They were understanding and kind about us not needing them to clean our room, and even gave us extra towels. I have been in hotels before where the maids were so rude and needed us out of the room even if we did not want our room cleaned. The front desk staff was also very kind and made us feel welcomed. 2) We stayed here for the Fourth of July. Our of our window, we were able to see at least 8 firework shows. This worked in our favor because I had a really bad migraine and couldn't handle noise, so seeing 8 shows from our window without having to listen to the noise was great. Fourth of July is my favorite holiday and I am glad I still got to enjoy it. 3) Although the outside of the hotel and the area are not the best, the inside is actually nice! Our room had a beautiful picture behind the bed and it really made us feel safe and comfortable. 4) The price! For two nights, we only paid $157! It was the cheapest hotel we could find in the area! We searched in Westminster, Broomfield, Thornton, Brighton, and Longmont, and this was hands down the cheapest hotel for two nights during Fourth of July at the last minute. 5) For being right off of I76, there is not a sound issue. We could not hear traffic at all. All in all, I have stayed at a few other Super 8's in my lifetime and this one was the best. I would gladly stay here again and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a cheap yet safe and...
Read moreDON'T STAY HERE!! If I could give it 0 stars I would. They claimed my fiance and I smoked in our room because they found butt's in the trash can. We are not gross people and we do not throw our butt's on the ground, Nor have we ever smoked in a hotel room. We don't smoke in our own house or indoors period! We save our butt's in an ashtray envolope and put them in the trash like they belong. This is not evidence of smoking in a room in which the employees claim. I have called 6+ times to speak to the manager/owner in regards to this claim. He will not call me back! They stole our $100 deposit that was desperately needed as we were moving across the country and needed every penny we had saved. Do not put yourself in this position to get your deposit taken for something you get accused of and did not do. *Still have not heard from this owner a month later for any resolution to this matter and that's why I am leaving this post.
UPDATE: (RESPONSE TO OWNER) This was my first review so, no you never responded a month ago, Nor did you call me back after speaking to your employees 6 times and being promised you would call me. No smoking policies are not new, we stay at hotels all around the country and If they do offer smoking rooms, " WE DON'T GET ONE" Because " WE DON'T SMOKE IN OUR ROOMS EVER". So you are saying there is a new policy where you can't throw your butt's in the trash can? That is absolutely ludicrous! Never have I had anyone take $200 for me throwing my butt's in a trash can. There is no such policy at any hotel. If you are a decent person/businesses owner you will try to make this right because you are in the wrong. To everyone reading this, I will update if he reaches out and try's to right his mistake. So, If you don't see the update of that happening, then Just know this can and will happen to you when the owner makes up a policy that doesn't exist to take your hard earned money. P.S. check all my reviews, I am not a Karen and Never have left reviews...
Read moreYou get what you pay for. This was the cheapest hotel we could find at such short notice. Checking in was a breeze, they let us check in early and the guy was really nice and helpful. It was downhill from there. The elevator was janky and scary at times. Our bathroom had severe water wasn't. The bathroom door was falling apart and held together with nails. We couldn’t close the door at all, which made it awkward to use the bathroom in such a tiny space with the door open. The walls had water damage. The room was no smoking yet there was a burn mark on one of our blankets. The refrigerator didn’t work and the microwave made a ticking sound all night. The AC worked well! The bed was comfy and free of bedbugs so that was nice. Don’t rely on the Wi-Fi. It was real touch and go. In the morning the breakfast was bleak. The juices were flavored water. The coffee and “hot water” were room temperature. They had cereal, no milk. No fruit. They did have some white bread, don’t know what they want you to do with that as I didn’t see a toaster and there wasn’t any jelly nor butter. They did have waffles. Again no butter or syrup either. So we had room temperature (can’t call it hot) chocolate for breakfast. We ended up going to Stephanie’s Cafe for breakfast and that was so good and close by I highly recommend that. When I went to check out and let them know the bathroom door doesn’t close no one was there. I walked around, called out “hello?” a few times, waited a couple minutes and no one ever showed up so I just left the key cards. This place is a comfy bed at an affordable rate and that’s it. Don’t have high expectations when coming here. I was happy to be leaving after one...
