expected more...
My family and I headed up to Denver when we heard my best friends son was being air lifted to the Childrens hospital in Denver from Montana. I live three hours south from denver so, I got online to try and find a hotel close, but nice enough to entertain my family for the time I would be gone visiting my friend and her son in the hospital. I found the Hyatt Regency which is about ten miles south of the hospital. The hotel had a winter special and it fell within our budget. The room and hotel looked great from the pictures and they had all the amenities I wanted such as fitness center, pool, hot tub and sauna, the only thing it did not have was a contenital or breakfast included which would have been nice (concidering the price even at a discount rate) zThe rooms looked cozy and clean, I read reviews stating this place was a winner. Well it was nice and it did look and appear to be everything I hoped it to be, untill I went in. The decor is out dated, expecially the carpet, the rooms were dusty and carpets stained. The first item to appear on the TV screan upon turning it on was an adult movie pay per view screen (scantly clad women on the screen)( I have a child) and the towels were few, and not very nicly displayed (as I would have expected at a hotel of this character)The beds were amazingly comportable though, and probably one of the best parts of the experiance. Hair was on the floors and the toleit paper was one ply ONE PLY really over a hundred dollars anight and one ply toliet paper? ok. so I can live with all of this but when I go to use the work out equiptment there are children running and playing and climbing all over the equiptment, no parents, where are your parents? my goodness you have to get in with a key!! so then maybe the pool and spa are a good choice , nope, kids again, no parents no rules just running splashing, playing as kids do, though I would never allow my child to do this to other adults who are clearly trying to enjoy there time Im sure not everyone likes to be splashjed and kicked in the hot tub at ten o clock at night! so off to the room I go, try to relax long day at the hospital and want coffee, crappy hotel sleaze coffee with generic one cup coffee makers that make swill coffee, not like what your thinking oh one cup coffe makers no would have been better off putting in a coffee pot, or bring your own, no micro wave as mentined online, to heat left overs up in and five dollar cheap water in the rooms, clearly marked on water bottle five dollars really five dollars but I cant even enjoy your pool or your coffee, not to mention the ten dollar a day parking that is not even secure. Breakfeast was outragously price eight dollars for toast no kidding.... Oh and heres the best part save it for last... I see the hotel books that show the hotel and all the surrounding area entertainment /resturaunts, so I open it up to try and find a place to eat and what do I see every mens escort service phone number, mens nudy clubs and strip joints... REALLY? What kind of hotel is this? it APPEARED to be a ligit buisness type motel, and a name that has stood the tests of time so this is not at all what I expected... I will not be back no matter what the deal rate and deceiving pictures they have on there site, though it looks nice the only good part was it was on the way to the hospital....
