Easily the best place to stay in cripple Creek. Complementary breakfast was OK, but hey, it was free! The next spec place in cripple Creek would be to stay at the new hotel/casino, but then you would be staying at a casino. I really appreciate it The quiet seclusion of this place while still being quite close to all of the action in town. Very homey and clean and the beds were very comfortable.

Staff was great, room clean, bed comfy. Continental breakfast was very limited and not much room to sit. So if you’re needing a good breakfast included, this might not be a good choice for you.
