“Clarion for The Clarion”

I was not expecting this to be such a nice stay. Just in town on business and on a company budget - it was The Clarion or Quality Inn to be close to downtown. I picked The Clarion and what a nice surprise. Super nice staff, a cute fireplace and waterfall in the lobby, a pool and a hot tub and everything was super clean. My room was modern and tasteful with a really comfy king bed. Nice hot breakfast included every day and a manager's cocktail hour every evening. Plenty of free parking and easy access to I-25, which is at the corner. The only downside is there is only one way to reach the front desk which includes having to climb stairs with heavy luggage. The 'backside' bottom floor of the hotel is kind of depressing looking with a moldy smell. Fortunately, I only had to see those going to and from my room. Overall I gave this hotel a Very Good rating. Definitely a good value for the money. « less

This hotel stay was arranged for me by a business client of mine as I normally stay in Marriott or Hilton hotels. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality, price and services that this hotel offers. The room was very nice and exceptionally clean and well maintained. It has a small kitchen area and is obviously perfect for families who sometimes eat in their room. The rate included a very nice free breakfast that was surprisingly sufficient and well staffed. I would definitely stay here again when visiting the area! « less

Bajagoug,
The Quality Suites is not a Marriott or Hilton Hotel, we are a Choice Hotel, however we strive to offer our guests the same guest expectations as the upper scale brands. I am pleased your company chose to book with us and you enjoyed your stay. As you realize all our rooms are 2 room suites with plenty of room to spread out. I hope the next time you have business in Colorado Springs you and your company choose to stay with the Quality Suites Downtown again.

It is arranged quite differently and rooms are a long way from the front entrance. The second night I ask for a closer room and it was on the first floor. The room was not as clean as on the second floor. TV didn't work, so I was moved to room next door. I got locked out 3 times. The key wouldn't work. It was annoying, but staff continued to try to help. Their breakfast is very good! Sausage, eggs, french toast, oatmeal, r.olls, donuts, apples, oranges, dry cereals, several kinds of tea, juices. Their is an open bar in the afternoon with 2 free drinks: beer, wine, alcholic drinks and little smokies. The hallway looks very old, but the rooms are pretty nice: they have microwave,frig, iron, hair dryer. Wall Street and USA Today newspapers are available for free if you like. I bid $28 on Priceline and got it so that was a big plus! « less
