I checked in at 5:30pm and they weren't sure the room was ready. Check-in process was very slow. Check-out was very slow. When I got to breakfast at 8:20am, there were 2 English muffins, 4 muffins, 3 yogurts, and oranges available. No napkins, no place to sit.

The hotel definitely caters to the hiker type. No frills, cooler bag and hiking guide in the room, etc. We found the room to be impeccably clean and seemingly newly renovated: new floors, fresh paint, etc. The exterior was a bit of a mess though. In every corner and under the decks were piled broken furniture, building matls, etc. Were only notified at check-in that the pool was OoO bc they didn’t pass their inspection due to a leak. Isn’t inspection at the BEGINNING of summer? Our stay was in mid-Sept. Why weren't we notified? Also, good thing we were awake by 8am Mon bc the work crew starting pounding on something w sledgehammers for an hour straight. Breakfast was meh. But the front desk staff was friendly and helpful and the cleaning staff was fastidious. Mgmt shldv warned about construction and pool issues as soon as we booked though, so we cldv made an informed decision.

Nice stay, some property construction
Loved the trail vibe, room was clean, modern, comfortable. Breakfast was adequate with bread/muffins, yogurt, granola, PB&J, coffee/water. What more do you need on the trail? The conversation pit was a great way to connect with other (hikers).

We had a wonderful visit. The room was clean and very nice. Our dog was very happy and felt safe there when we left. We loved how close to town it was and how easily accessible it was to everything. We definitely will go back and stay especially if we are traveling with our pup!

When i arrived i was told expedia messed up and over booked the wrong room then after being shown the room the door would not close all the way unless you lifted up and pushed in to get it to lock. After letting the front desk employee know that was security issue i was moved to another room that had stains on the bedding and was dirty. None of the amenities that are shown online where available at this location you have to drive across town to there other location and for a discount can enjoy there amenities also the pool was not functional

The staff were all very nice. We had two rooms for two nights; one room was properly stocked for multiple guest and multiple nights. The other room was not - only one wash cloth, no extra TP, etc. Additionally the window on the room that wasn't stocked was wide open to the main walkway when we arrived (no screen, either) which was a serious safety concern for our all-female group. It wasn't made clear when we booked that we were staying at a second, less appointed property under the same name. If we'd known that, we likely would have chosen a different option. Lastly - the sink area is outside of the bathroom and you have to turn on the main lights of the room to get the sink-area light to turn on, so one person cannot get ready if another person is sleeping without turning all the room lights on. It's a place to stay in Estes, but there is plenty of room for improvement.

I called to talk about early check in and the man on the phone was extremely rude and hung up on me. When we got there the woman at the front desk was much nicer and we were able to check in early. Our room did not have hot water and our tv didn’t work which was pretty frustrating. The AC didn’t work either so our room was extremely hot. When leaving, the woman at the front desk was extremely apologetic and kind which we appreciated. Probably wouldn’t stay there again.

We unfortunately did not have a good stay. We were there for a wedding and we were called the morning of to let us know they double booked our room and that we could either downgrade to a different room (at the same price) or they had one more king suite but the TV is broken and that they would give us a discount. We decided to take the king suite at a discount. Upon arrival, we also discovered the AC was also broken. It was 90 degrees outside and it felt just as hot inside. When we called the desk, they said there was no maintenance workers there on the weekend but that they can bring us a couple of box fans. This essentially just circulated the hot air and did not cool it down. When I approached them about it, they said they could “maybe” get me another discount. When we checked out I brought it all up again and they said they would hopefully be able to get me a discount and they would be in touch. We have yet to hear anything. And for $300 a night I am really frustrated and disappointed in this property! We will not be staying here again and we will make sure everyone else also knows about what happened and to choose a different location to stay instead.

Cool rooms but careful, there are 2 Trailborns
The hotel rooms are very hip and cool. You can tell the building itself is an older hotel. The pool was out of service when we were there, which was a bummer. The problem is that there are two Trailborn hotels in Estes and they talk about them as if they are one. The welcome email even mentioned s'mores around the campfire, but that only happens at the other one, which is a 15-20 minute walk, not exactly next door. It felt misleading to me. Did appreciate the refillable bottles in the shower and the compostable breakfast utensils

Over all a good stay. The room was very nice, clean and spacious.We did have issue with children in the room above. We had to call the front desk two nights in a row to request they contact the parents. They did make a call and things quited after that.
