Very fun theme and hangout area. The rooms were cute and we liked the blankets, but the walls were a little thin. It's very close to the downtown area and it was an easy walk to the Denver airport shuttle.

Staff was amazing, extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful! Our room was nice but smelled like chlorine because we were right next to the hot tub room but once the a/c was on the smell went away. Tap/faucet needs to be secured again. Bed was super comfy and the location is just perfect! Thank you
