Plaza Hotel Denver
This should not be a hotel it should be a motel. It looks like they give vouchers to unhoused people. Homeless people outside hanging out. I went to go buy sandals to shower due to the conditions of the shower. Very poor hotel. Dirty elevator and very ugly room.

Ameristar Casino Resort Spa Black Hawk
Everything was great very clean. The ramen restaurant was excellent. I do wish there mini fridge would run like a normal one, instead of having to push a button that only works for a couple of hours. Also a microwave would really be a great amenitie to offer.
