We came in for the KLove concert last week, our first time to Denver. Billy made us feel right at home. Rooms were comfortable and the atmosphere was very welcoming. Location was convenient to both Red Rocks and Denver. If ever I had to travel to Denver again, I'd definitely stay here!

Good value for your money. Staff is very friendly and helpful. They always have coffee available, sometimes cookies. Rooms are a bit dated but still fine. Location is convenient, close to major highways. However, you will need a car, there are very few food options in walking distance.

Had previous accommodations fall through and had to edit a reservation at the last possible minute. We arrived and got checked in just fine. We've never had a bad stay here, and the staff is always so friendly and the rooms are clean and comfy.

We organized a room block through the area director of sales, Matt M., and this was a seamless process! Would recommend utilizing Matt's help to organize a room block - it's been an incredibly easy process with excellent communication!

Terrific spot for a Red Rocks concert. I we enjoyed not having to travel da after the concert, and a clean place to get ready. All the things you expect from a Hampton Inn- clean rooms, friendly staff, good breakfast. We’ll stay again!

The staff made this place great! It was clean, well-stocked, and had fresh cookies and lemonade along with coffee in the lobby all the time. The location is a bit odd behind a strip mall area, but it's convenient for easy food. It was perfect for our trip to Red Rocks though. A really easy drive. They have the schedule for Red Rocks and a 3rd party shuttle option posted in the lobby too.

Pool and hot tub were down and we weren’t notified till showing up and that was one of main reasons we were staying there. Should notify customers before stay. Luckily I did get a refund, I appreciated that.
