8/10 Good
"The bed was very comfortable. The dual coffee maker in the room leaked out one side while I was brewing one cup on the other side - it needs to be replaced. The patched bath ceiling needs to be scraped, plastered and repainted. It's embarrassing, as is the stain on the shower wall. Softer kleenex would be a nice touch. The iron was quality, but the ironing board pad needs to be replaced as it slides off. And the worst was the $20 parking charge per night in Commerce City??? That's inexcusable for a hotel that wants a great reputation."
