The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs
We love this hotel because it’s convenient, clean, comfortable and close to our family. It could use some renovation but looks like they are in the process of doing that.

Garden of the Gods Resort and Club
Overall I had a wonderful stay at the Garden of the Gods Resort. The customer service is exceptional. Depending on what room you’re in the walk to and from the lobby can be lengthy but the entire resort is a beautiful place to explore.
