Hotel was average. No movie channels, but more importantly there was strands of hair on towels, and one in the bed. There were also several hairs on the floor in the bathroom behind the door. Gross bathrooms are a red flag for me. I doubt we’ll stay here again.

Great property. It's mud season so the area is very quiet with few options for food but the two available are fine. Close to Rocky Mountain Natl Park with plentiful wildlife and zero crowds.

Great location - great restaurant
The Gateway Inn is perfectly located for a snowmobile or fishing trip. I loved the bar/restaurant being right at the hotel, with really good food. The wait staff were also friendly and provided great service. I was, however, disappointed by the cleanliness of my room (finding pretzels on the floor) and the complete lack of re-stocking our in-room coffee maker. The front desk staff were ambivalent, at best, to provide assistance.

The building and staff were nice but the shower was disgusting. There was slimey spots and body hair on the toilet with red slime around the sides. I'm assuming they know because they didn't ask about our stay. We would stay there again if it was cleaner in the bathroom.

We apologize for your poor experience. Our housekeeping staff takes pride in their cleanliness. The red is old caulking that has colored. We are in process of changing in all bathrooms. Please let us know if you come again and we will give you a free upgrade or discount of some kind. Thank you for your feedback so we can address these issues.
