Dump in a Gem of a town
Priced accordingly, this is a tough place to stay. Poor quality mattresses and linens. Poorly insulated rooms allow for you to hear everything in the bathroom across the hallway along with all of your neighbors. Baseboard heat makes the room go from 50° tov100° and is supplemented by a portable electric space heater. Creaky floors, covered in delaminating, separating Pergo. Evidence of past leaks and rotting window sills--really the list of deficiencies is the only thing impressive here. The positives? The bar next door closes at 2:00 AM so the room gets quieter shortly after and you wake up in Crested Butte which is fantastic as soon as you leave this dump.

Nice older place if you like this environment. They really need to be sure people understand what they are getting into before they book a room here. The cleanliness was horrible, bathroom(community) was not clean. We ended up cleaning the bathroom so we could use it!! Bedroom was small, nice but showed dust & dirt build up, front door light outside the hotel was out and the carpet going upstairs looked like it was never taken care of. We felt like we were back in a college dorm! I would not recommend this place to anyone. In addition, if a family or older couple were to book this hotel they would be disappointed. Room is about all you get. I would have left the day we arrived, gone to another hotel if we could have! But, unfortunately we were locked into this nightmare and could not get our money back due to their cancellation policy. In additional I even purchased insurance and it appears to be a joke too. Unable to get our money back!! Owner apparently does not care about the hotel. Only his Resturant below the hotel. I am never going to book s room this way again. Seems to me at the end nobody really cares about the customer only the MONEY!

I got altitude sickness The night before I was to stay at the florist queen. I ended up in the hospital emergency room and could not continue my check up any higher in altitude. I called to talk to the manager to try to change or cancel my room.I tried to cancel my reservation to no avail I ended up not going to Crestview, and then also having to pay for another room at a lower altitude.

Shared bathroom
The location is amazing and it’s such a perk being right in town. However, be aware some of these rooms are a shared bathroom situation and I did not realize this when booking the room. We wouldn’t mind this, but the bathroom was very dirty with hair and scum everywhere. And the shower had such little water pressure you had to stand against the wall to get any water. This is also a small detail, but there was nowhere to get a drink of water except for from the dirty bathroom faucet. But the restaurant staff below were very nice and accommodating!

The room was super small and it was very hot in it. The bathtub was not draining while we were taking a shower and there was no water pressure in the shower. However the hotel was at a perfect location, walking distance to lots of restaurants and stores. We also enjoyed sleeping with the sound of the river.

Phenomenal location, friendly staff. Just be sure to understand you're getting a bed in a room with a very ordinary bathroom down the hall. I slept really well, no major complaints.

Antique hotel, room, really needed some fixes.
Disappointed in condition of room. Lampshades were noticeably finger soiled, window to outdoors need to be completed replaced (original wood window from the 1880's?) and the single pane glass had a crack and hole in the glass. Entrance way stairs need new carpet.
