The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs
First room they put us in smelled like vomit. They moved us to a different room which smelled much better. Bathrooms need updating as well as caulking around the tub. Breakfast was good and they had a lot of options.

Hyatt Place Colorado Springs Downtown
I really enjoyed my stay here. It was a very nice hotel and perfectly located! Plenty of places to go within walking distance, and everything that wasn’t walking distance was only about a 15 minute drive. The hotel was very nice, quiet, clean and safe. Definitely would stay here again!
