We did enjoy having the Swim Club Bar and Restaurant and location is great. But the beds and pillows were old and uncomfortable. There were bugs coming in from the window. Shower tiles were popping off. Shower drain backs up. Place is so outdated. Pictures on Expedia are extremely misleading.

We were pleasantly surprised that the bar and gathering area had been nicely updated and is huge. Staff were friendly. There is great potential for the Broker to be a place for game days and after parties. The word needs to get out that the Broker is a cool place to gather!

This property has outlived its charm. I booked it for business, seeing that it was the same price point as 3-star hotels I’ve recently stayed in in Superior/Broomfield. First, these deflated throw pillows on the bed were worthless. I had to buy a pillow. 2nd, it’s not a business-friendly room. There is a desk, no plugs to access near it. Mold on the bathroom ceiling. J-zz stains on the desk chair. The ghosts of myriad bar mitzva’s and rotary calculator salesman conventions haunt the place. It is clearly time to sell to a chain that will tear it down and rebuild something that makes sense today. THE BEST I can say, is that’s it’s walking distance to The Dark Horse!
