Great location just outside downtown near the Bluebird and Ogden Theaters... close to restaurants... In an uptown style location. Rooms are nice and clean only bad thing are small bathrooms. Breakfast is typical continental style... unfortunately lots of homeless in area... Lock your car and remember to get a parking pass or the hotel will tow your vehicle.

Average Hotel. It was a great location for seeing a show at the Ogden Theater. The neighborhood look pretty rough at night. We were solicited to buy drugs when we were outside the room from a guy in the alley below. The staff was pleasant. It was a low price for Denver, you should expect what you pay for it.

Dirty rooms no hot water filthy carpets overcharge for room charged for safe when not used. Next door to a bar which trash pickup was at 5 am, terrible customer service! Rooms were bad, heat did not heat room sufficiently and emergency exit was padlocked from outside.

The rooms were nice for the price, not much frill. Very convenient to downtown, for a much better price than the downtown hotels. Staff was very friendly, always very helpful. We stayed for a few days and then stayed in the mountains a few days and came back and stayed at Econo Lodge again before leaving Denver. When we were... More

I stayed here four nights. The only reason was the cheap rate. A 5 minute drive to downtown. The internet is free. A bit slow but what do you want for free. The staff is great and the rooms are clean. It is a bit noisy and the breakfast is skimpy. Walk up the street to Toms diner and get... More

Let me start by saying that I would stay here again. The room was very clean. We were not bothered by noise from the surrounding area (we use ear plugs). A problem I had was that they say there is free wi-fi but we found it spotty at best. I was all over Denver and as I write this I... More

This is a good deal for staying one or 2 nights in downtown Denver, if that is where you need or want to be. It is very conveniently located near the 16th st mall, and all points of interest downtown. Public transit nearby is absolutely amazing. Iti s a mere 7 blockss ' walk to the free downtown shuttle service,... More

If you are in town for a concert at the Fillmore (such as we were) and want to be close this is perfect. However, you get what you pay for and this room was definitely not the cleanest by far. If you just need a place that's cheap to crash for the night then it works- I definitely would not... More
