The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs
Room wasn’t cleaned the entire stay even though I requested it multiple times. When I spoke with the manager her said they are in the process of new ownership and the new owner is unable to be reached as he is out of the country so he is sorry but there is nothing they can do to rectify

The staff went above and beyond for our stay and found my sons build a bear he lost by the fire place. We always come back here every spring break.
