"The Old Town Inn is a very well run Inn. The staff is very friendly and warm and welcoming. The location is very close to a Shuttle bus stop so it makes it so easy to get up the mountain and you don’t have to pay the high prices to stay at the mountain. I would stay at the Old Town Inn every time we travel to Crested Butte."
