Quaint old building, located downtown, Pricey
Good, small old hotel located downtown. Lobby and main entrance are located in basement with steep stairs. Difficult carrying roller luggage up and down stairs. No parking on property, street parking available several blocks outside of downtown area. Location is near bus station and near night club, very noisey especially on 2nd floor. I do not see the value, pricey rooms.

This is a very old hotel in the core of Aspen and you could not pay me to stay here again. Noisy , run down and lack of consistent hot water. I rarely complain about hotels but this place is a complete disaster and should be avoided!

Fantastic location! Old historic building snuggled at base of the mountain near the lifts with nicely renovated condo rooms for rent. The supplies in kitchen vary with each room. Ours had nothing but a couple of wine glasses, while another had fully equipped kitchen with silverware, plates, etc.

Perfect location. Short walk to Aspen and even shorter walk to the free shuttle bus to get to the other three mountains.
