Best Western Plus Fillmore Inn & Suites
Room was clean and breakfast was good. Our room had a connecting door and unfortunately the guests next door were very loud and we hardly got any sleep. Front desk staff was not the friendliest, unsure if we would go back.

Hyatt Place Colorado Springs/Garden of the Gods
The breakfast was very nice and full of extensive selection. Thanks! The Mountain View was fairly blocked by other buildings but a short walk and you get the full view.
