I shouldn't say this place was awful--it really wasn't that bad--but it wasn't perfect. We booked in advance for a room for 4 nights (reasonably priced), but when we arrived, all of the parking was occupied, and the awning was littered with motorcycles. We found out that, because many bikers were heading home from Sturgis, they got caught in the flash flooding and had to leave their bikes in the way while they stay the night. Not the hotel's fault, but we were left struggling to use the side door because they don't restrict overnight parking in front of the entrance. Inside, everything looked modern, which I don't know about you, but modern doesn't always look appealing to me. The people at the front desk were inconsistent: sometimes they were friendly and helpful, sometimes they were completely lost as if they were abandoned on their first day. Once we entered the room, the mesh desk chair was smeared with some sticky substance, and because every room was booked, we were stuck with it in the room.
Otherwise, everything else was at least ok. We didn't have any issues with noise, even for being on the first floor. The included breakfast was adequate. They have coffee, chocolate milk, and juice; waffles, cereal, yogurt, bagels, etc. They have a pool--not cold but not quite "heated"--and while we were there, they had a volleyball and a football (unsure if the hotel owned them or if other patrons left them in there during their stay), but unfortunately no hot tub, basketball, or anything else. And in their fitness room, they have walking/running equipment as well as dumbbells (I think it ranged from 5 lbs to 50).
All in all, it wasn't a nightmarish wreck. It just wasn't somewhere we'd return to given the numerous options throughout Cheyenne. read more
