Coyote Mountain Lodge
Very unprofessional and very disrespectful

Discovery Lodge
The room was clean. Its a property that you can park your car right outside your room. They were paving the driveway at 7 am & woke us up. The hotel never told us there was going to be construction, so that was frustrating.

Hotel Estes
The property was nice, scenic views, rustic mountain look, and clean property and rooms. The bed on the other hand was as hard as a rock. It felt like sleeping on a concrete slab. The hot tub wasn't the hottest, but they said it was as high as they could go. Other than that breakfast was mediocre ...

Expedition Lodge Estes Park
Breakfast was delicious and the hosts were very friendly and accommodating.

The Estes Park Resort
The lake view was blocked because our room was in the basement/first floor. I was expecting that in mid April (not a season), I will get lake view for $250 charge. Rest all was good.
