The room was a nice size and the beds were okay. The bathroom was teeny tiny!!!

Cleanliness was not an issue.

Basic Clean hotel

Stayed here over the Fourth of July. Easy access about a mile and a half from downtown. Clean room. Outdated bathroom and old mattress. Pretty views and easy check-in. Hot tub broken and looked like it had been in disrepair for a long time.
1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay!

We loved our stay at the Blue Door! Maybe it’s an older place but inside our room everything was neat, tidy, clean, and there was no ‘old place’ smell. The water pressure in the shower was great and the bed was very comfortable. It probably only took us ten minutes to drive to the RMNP entrance from the inn and the area was quiet.
Rachelle, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our room was spacious and clean, and had a beautiful view of the mountains. Check-in was easy, breakfast was good, all around a great stay.

Spacious room, warm and cozy bed. Fridge and microwave a plus. Beautiful location, quiet and safe. The morning breakfast was nice. Staff was friendly and helpful! Happy with our stay!
Shannon, 1-night trip

Meh

A rather well worn place. The fellow at the front desk was nice. As an aside, our room had no smoke detector, just a place in the ceiling where it should have been.

Needs a little refreshing!!

The bathrooms were nice & clean but the rooms and doors needed some painting and updating.
Ron, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Meh …

Bed was comfy .. but the rooms could use some deep cleaning. Beds moved slightly with the kids, and they were pretty gross underneath. Made the room feel a little dirty. Shower curtain was moldy at the bottom. When I checked in the guy mentioned “luxury” and I was far from luxury! I’d stay again, just don’t expect AMAZING! I definitely overpaid for my 1 night stay.

Anthony, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Close to town, not too far from good hikes, and clean beds. The pack and play was pretty old and dirty, but most people won’t need that.
Taylor, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Front desk was very helpful and friendly. Had two rooms for me and a friend in her kids. Both of them were cute and clean. They allow animals for a small deposit.
Tereasa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great service, very close from easter park and other ammenities/activities.
Alberto, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Affordable and comfortable

Overall, it was a nice hotel for our stay. We came for hiking and sightseeing, and the hotel had a comfortable bed and room to sleep and get ready in. My only complaint is that we were there from Sunday-Thursday, and housekeeping didn’t come to our room once. We could have used more towels and a few other items for the room, but we made due with what we had. We weren’t even in the room the majority of the time, so there was plenty of time to get the room made up for us. Otherwise, good value for the price.
Danielle, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great place to stay while hiking RMNP. Clean, friendly, close to everything you need and not far from park entrances.
Heather, 1-night trip
