Colorado Springs hotellit Cimarron Hills

Plussat: location was very good for getting to the airport quickly

Plussat: First, I give a fair objective review. Not a subjective review based on an emotional state. Also, I am a highly seasoned traveler, both in the US and abroad. So you understand, the building is not a new structure. Regardless of this, it was well maintained from what I experienced. Safety: The Hotel is adjacent to Peterson AFB. The management has a good video monitoring system. The staff was vigilant with this system. The outside doors are key card access only during evening hours. I appreciate these measures because they are a deterrent against nefarious activity and people. Some said that derelicts wander the outside grounds. I saw none of this. The outside grounds should have better lighting in the parking lot and the lot spaces are a little crowded but my car was fine every day I stayed. Cleanliness: The facility was clean and tidy and so was my room. Some reviews complained about the carpet being in poor condition. I saw none of this. The carpet, in my room and in the hall outside my room was clean and spot free. Some complained about an odd smell. I detected none of this. Like many many hotels, the operator uses an air freshener. Nothing uncommon. I generally open my window in my room when I lodge to let in fresh air. In my experience there is no problem with this. On the following morning of my first overnight stay, the entire upstairs bank of rooms was outfitted with brand new mattresses. Didn’t ask why but it appeared that the operator was making upgrades. I was happy with this. In the morning of my second overnight stay I saw staff walking the grounds, picking up any trash. I really appreciate this since I have never seen a hotel do this. This shows they care about their business inside and out. I think I read a complaint of beg bugs. No, there wasn’t any in my experience. Sheets and linen were clean and house keeping comes and does a good cleaning daily. They come early so if you plan to sleep in put your do not disturb sign up or you will get woken with a knock for service. Again, I count this as a good thing. It means they take their business seriously. Staff: The staff is great. Front desk is very personable. I showed early and due to a booking schedule issue on my part I wasn’t booked for the first night when I arrived. The front desk still checked me in and gave me the booked rate I would have had had I not messed up my own schedule. Bottom line they accommodate. I was thankful because my booked rate was a great low rate. They just gave it to me. Amenities: King single rooms, queen single rooms and queen doubles are available. They supply in room - cable tv with movie channels, coffee and coffee maker, cups, ice bucket, alarm clock, pen and paper, hair dryer (which is good) sink, toilet, and bath/shower. All is pretty standard. They have coin operated laundry service on the property. Free parking and WiFi. Breakfast was seriously minimal and needs work. Offering no free breakfast won’t break the deal for staying at this hotel but continuing it as it is detracts. Hotel needs to either drop breakfast or fix it. Value: This is a two star hotel but in my book a good one. The room rates were a great value for anyone on a budget, with a family or penny pinching. Bottom Line: This is a good hotel and I would definitely stay again. Unless you are a picky grump who thinks they are entitled to Champaign service from a two star hotel, you will be pleased with your stay here. I recommend and would stay again.

Plussat: Location, facilities were good, esp. for the price.

Plussat: This place is a mess, dirty, needs lots of up keep. Carpets in shambles. This hotel needs redone.
