No elevator in the building, stairs difficult to navigate for older customers. Continental breakfast was below average. Again, navigating all of the stairs if wanting to take breakfast back to your room was difficult. On a positive note, located a short 10 minute walk to the heart of downtown.

Absolutely the best value in Aspen. Right next to the shuttles and about 6 minutes walk to town. Clean room good breakfast fantastic staff. All at the most reasonable price in Aspen. Like others the hot water took a long time. But it’s no big deal. Just let it run a bit first. The bathroom is a little dated but again no big deal. Definitely recommend

Was a disappointing stay. The rooms really need a refresh, especially the bathrooms. The design and organization of the hotel is not very functional, with all rooms opening to the big, open, center lobby. We could hear all the chitchat from the front desk, and the eating sounds from meal times while in our room. The open layout also meant there was no place for housekeeping to do their work so the stairwell areas were often full of stuffed laundry bags and cleaning supplies. Walls were thin and we could hear next room conversations through the wall. One afternoon the key code door lock to our room stopped working and had to be reset. Our last evening the internet went out, which meant no Wi-Fi and no tv, while regular cell data reception in the hotel was terrible to the point of useless. There is no overnight hospitality staff past 10pm, so things like the internet outtage can’t get addressed until morning. The young man at the desk that we interacted with the most was lovely, but otherwise this was a frustrating stay and I can’t say I recommend it.

The property is somewhat aged, but is in good condition and is in a good location. You should be aware that apartments that begin with one are below the street level and have no windows. The breakfast included with the fee was really quite good. The apartment is walking distance to downtown, though for shopping you may wish to drive. You should be aware that there is no real kitchen in the apartment. There is a small refrigerator with freezer and microwave. Considering this is one of the lesser expensive places to stay in Aspen, it is still good value and we would certainly stay there again.

Underwhelming

Visible mold and mildew in shower grout. Scratchy towels. Doors don’t shut fully. Lights flicker in bathrooms. Not enough parking. A/c stopped working halfway through the visit.

Continental breakfast is served in common area directly outside of the rooms, noise is unavoidable starting at 6am. Not advisable if you’re working overnights and need to sleep in.

I understand that this is the most budget friendly place in town, but expected more for $400 a night

Do not recommend

We ended up leaving the lodge before our reservation was over and stayed somewhere else. To say this place has been renovated is an extreme exaggeration. The bathroom was from the original build with stains in the tub. We couldnt really access the closet, as a bed was up against it. The pool was not really a pool and the broken down furniture surrounding it was covered in dirt and spider webs.

Great bang for buck

The staff is super nice and accommodating. Given how cheap this was compared to typical Aspen prices, I had low expectations but was pleasantly surprised. The hotel felt cozy, there was a good choice at breakfast, and the staff was very available and willing to help. The rooms were somewhat old with some signs of wear (as I expected based on the price and reviews), but I was pleasantly surprised they were functional and clean. The location is fantastic. The walls were indeed thin (as I had read in reviews before), and I had to use the earplugs I brought on the days close to the weekend. However, in the middle of the week, it was quiet enough to sleep without earplugs. Overall, given the comparatively low price, Aspen Mountain Lodge well exceeded my expectations and I would stay again.

Not worth the money

This place uses its location (excellent) to justify never updating or maintaining the property. Everything is dated, stained, and questionably cleaned. But hey, if you're still half the price of every other hotel in aspen, you can get away with charging 5 star resort prices with motel 6 accommodations.

For $500 a night they offer very poor amenities ( old dispenser with cheap products ) in the shower, bring your own shampoo/ etc . Carpets are dirty and smelly, there was an actual yellow large wet stain in front of the bathroom. Thought it was dog urine maybe, but it was the radiator leaking.

I alerted management and they comped one of my night , it s appreciated but nothing was fixed as I had to hop over and cover the floor with towels. And not one came to fix the issue.

Another detail, the walls are paper thin, you can hear all your neighbors conversations. And it gets loud. Breakfast is not very good and some of the yogurts for breakfast were expired 3 days ago, just not a good place to stay in Aspen. Would not return.

Aspen Mtn Lodge is located within walking distance of the stores and restaurants. It is an older building but well maintained and clean, and the rooms adequately appointed. We were surprised that with four floors it did not have an elevator, nor was this revealed in the rental and checkin info. No one was at the front desk when we checked in about 6:30 PM, and so we had to carry our luggage up four floors! This was difficult, challenging and dangerous for seniors in the high altitude. There should have been some alternative. The next morning the staff was apologetic and said we should have called the number on the sign, but it was too late for that!

Overall nice place for a few summer nights in Aspen. The manager, Ruben, and his crew were wonderful - friendly and helpful for local suggestions on hiking and other activities. The free breakfast is really good as well. Only thing I can suggest to management is that the place needs a reno. The floor of the unit above ours creaked quite loudly and the noise would wake us up when the occupants would walk around.

Aside from the location, this wasn’t a great experience. The room was large but I’d compare it to a Motel 6 from the late 80s. At check-in, we learned there is not always a dedicated person available.

The main building didn’t seem to have air conditioning & there is no elevator. We lugged our bags up to the fourth floor and inputted our 10 digit code which was needed to get in & out of the room. No key, no card, a physical, long code. Each time.

The air conditioner was barely holding in the window with wasps coming inside to cool themselves. The bathroom was moldy. The sliding door to the deck had a 1/2 gap at the top and didn’t entirely shut (although there was a lock that closed).

Our room was in the high 80s when we checked in. It was 90 outside. The temperature control was high or nothing. Nighttime was not comfortable.

There were exposed extension cords in the rain gutters of our patio that looked to be barely holding on.

Parking was easy. Dedicated lot. Very walkable to downtown.

We ended up checking out a day early.

It's always difficult to leave a negative review, but I believe in honest feedback, especially when choosing a hotel. Here's my experience to help others avoid a similar situation.

The Issues:

Run-down and Dirty: The hotel felt neglected. Worn carpets, wripped carpets, loose bathroom tiles, and cleaning supplies left in hallways created a poor first impression.For some reason, the staff liked to stay in front of my door and chat frequently.
Breakfast Concerns: During breakfast, there were no plates available, and the staff member serving didn't have their hair tied up, which raised hygiene concerns.Also, it was difficult to get to the food as the staff was frequently in the way.
Disruptive Noise: The soundproofing was inadequate, allowing noise from upstairs guests to easily disrupt my sleep throughout the night.
Unshoveled Walkways: The snow remained uncleared outside the entrance at 7:00 am, making access difficult and potentially unsafe.
Unaccommodating Staff: My was cancelled and I asked for 1 day refund, which was flatly denied without any explanation.
Misleading Rating: This hotel, in my experience, felt more like a 2-star establishment, not the advertised 3 stars.

Inviting Hotel

Staff was friendly, professional, and helpful. The 1st floor common area is very inviting with a fireplace and free books to read. The room was clean and had everything you would expect from a standard hotel room. This was my second stay with this hotel; a hotel that has free breakfast. I stayed almost a year before to the day, and the breakfast options then were better than this year. But the options they did have got the job done. There are a limited number of parking spaces, and they’re a bit tight, but I was usually able to find one. The one time I didn’t I had no problem finding street parking adjacent to the hotel. Overall I had a very pleasant stay in this hotel, and I intend to be back again for next year’s trip to Aspen.
