    The bed wasn’t very comfortable. I know they have a communications kitchen but my room had a kitchenette but no microwave only sink and coffee maker. There’s so much room, they should put a small Microwave

    Location was amazing, hot tub, sauna, and river cold plunging was special. Very friendly staff!

    When we came back after the concert, there was no parking in the main lot. The email from the property said to park at a satellite lot, 0.25 miles away. However, that lot did not exist. Turns out the overflow parking is right next to the hostel, but it just isn't well marked and hard to see at night. A sign and a better explanation in an email would really help guests. The address in the email is definitely wrong.

    The hostel is very clean, very cute. My husband and I stayed in a private room with a bathroom and it was really nice. We didn't use many of the facilities and amenities because we were just there for a night to see a concert. I would come back and stay here for more time.

    Price. Understanding that the area is always going to be expensive, but it's still a hostel and it's off-season. But it still cost me about $40 if I recall correctly. That's quite a bit to pay to share a room with other people in the off-season. But that's Colorado for you. USA, even. It's all relative

    For a hostel, one of the best I've been to

    I shared a room in a female-only dorm style room. Some of the guests were rude by turning on lights and being noisy after I was in bed and trying to fall asleep (after 10pm). There are signs up about these policies and I don’t blame the property for this. It’s just an inconvenience for that specific type of accommodation. One of the hotel staff, at the front desk, used the bathroom at the same time as me and didn’t wash her hands when she was done. That was bothersome. Especially after this, I saw her make coffee in the carafe that everyone gets their coffee from.

    The place had a good causal hangout vibe. As a solo traveler I felt comfortable and safe. I liked all the sitting areas inside and outside. The property is along the Blue River and right on the bike path. I’ll definitely go back!

    Parking lot always full, had to park in sketchy areas assigned by own staff which could lead to either a fine or some damage to the car. Should upgrade parking lot. And also, breakfast for people staying less than 3 nights could help too.

    Eerything: One of the best hostels ever.
