Hyatt Centric Downtown Denver
Friendly staff, the room was nice and clean. I couldn't get the WI-FI to work on my phone. The roof top was really nice. Thank you to the bartender who let me barrow a corkscrew and saved the night.

Hyatt Place Peña Station/Denver Airport
Hotel Teatro
The room unfortunately did not meet expectations and showed signs of long-term wear. The carpet appeared overdue for replacement, the curtains had noticeable stains, and the bathroom plumbing continued to run. However, the staff at the reception desk were warm which was genuinely appreciated.
