good location for driving but not walking
this is a nice hotel, looks to be newly renovated. welcoming lobby area, nice cocktail lounge (not a bar, as it is more cozy and warm looking). Located just off I25 on Colorado Ave., which is a very busy street and not one you want to cross to get to the other side. Not much in the area to walk to anyway, but with a car, the places you can go are very accessible. The highway is just down the street, which can get you downtown quickly as long as you don't hit rush hour. Colorado takes you to the museum, zoo and taking a turn down 17th takes you to numerous good restaurants as well as downtown. Cherry Creek mall and the lovely shopping streets of Cherry Creek are just a ways down Colorado. Hotel rooms are nicely done, comfortable beds, nice breakfast buffet in the AM till 10. Would definitely stay again as it is very convenient to get to and from. Oh, and this is a big one, parking is free.
