Horrible horrible experience
When my husband and I arrived at this location, we were horrified at what we drove up to this location and parked out front, we were greeted by homeless people on the steps leading to the door, we had to physically step over them. When we finally got to the door, as we searched for our code, another girl on the stairs opened the door up with her code, as if she had done it for other before. How incredibly unsafe. Upon entering the building, we were met with an awful smell, dirty rugs and an overall very unsettling appearance. At this tine, we realized there was not any hotel staff on site at all. We never even entered our room, we left and thought it would be 100% safer to stay somewhere else. The location of this “chalet” is incredibly dangerous for out of town guests with plans of leaving their room at any point. To say we were disappointment in this booking is the understatement of the century!!

The rooms are VERY swanky (stayed in the Albert ste) but being that there is ZERO on-site staff, here is the issue: response times if there is an issue... and there was. We ran out of the ¼ roll of toilet paper by the 2nd day and there were only 2 washclothes for 2 ppl for 4 days. I emailed mgnt but got no response. Luckily we had our own TP! Then the 2nd day we found a cleaning person and asked them directly and she took care of it. But then the lock code stopped working on the room door. U have a maglock at the front door and an electric doorlock on the room. Evidently the batteries die all the time but cleaning staff cannot do that. So she let us in by using the master key but we had to wait for the Mgr to chg the batteries and reprogram the lock. Well she was supposed to be there in 5mins as she was already en route supposedly. That was at 9am. I had to go to a trade show, but my wife cldnt leave or she might not be able to get back in the room- and there is NO lobby. The Mgr finally showed up arnd 5pm. So my wife cldnt even leave for lunch or to go outside for fresh air. All day she was basically trapped in the room. Other issues: the furnishings in the room in the pictures must be for staging bc the room was much more barren when we were there- no decorative credenza, nightstands were diff, no bedskirt at all; the coffee was not replenished daily; the window onto the alley was missing the lock, homeless hang out on the side and in front of the bldg so remain vigilant.

It's definitely a place with character! The area is a bit sketchy and there always seems to be a few people hanging around the street outside--I would try to avoid coming and going alone if I could. The service was great however, and there's air conditioning and the bed was comfy. It was still a great experience. Definitely check out Pete's Diner and the Lion's Lair just down the street.

No way, never again!! I’m a well-seasoned Denver traveler and have stayed all around the Capital Hill area. I get it- there’s a certain crowd here and I don’t mind. But, this place is THE worst. I used to walk past this building and I thought it was a hostel. It just had that look- a lot of people hang out right here. I did have to park 2 blocks away and walk with all my stuff through the homeless crowds. That was rough. But, the inside of this place is just as bad. There was marshmallow goo or something on the floor, then on my shoe, then just everywhere. The toilet leaked and ran all night. I couldn’t get all the curtains closed so I felt every exposed to the outside. The linens are all gray so you can tell how really dirty they are, but if you look you’ll see the stains. The worker there didn’t greet me, just sort of ran by and opened the door (my code didn’t work) and didn’t say anything. She looked a little rough to be honest. It’s just a gross place. Doesn’t feel safe at all. Definitely not clean. There was a half eaten bag of open chips in the cabinet so you know they’re not cleaning real deep or anything. No matter what the price, I would never stay here again. Ever. And, believe me, I’ve stayed some shady places. And before the sarcastic management that responds to other reviews says something smart assy, let me say- I do know what a hostel is. And I know this area very well. This place may not technically be a hostel, it definitely has that vibe. This place

Did Not Stay - Could Not Get In.
We tried the door code three times with the code we were given and unable to get into the holiday chalet so we had to find another hotel. This hotel is located in economic deprived area of town with homeless people and pan handlers coming up to us as we tried to get into the front hotel door.

The bed was alright, the room itself was lovely. Really spacious and had a decent enough bathroom. That said the area around the b&b was awful. The steps leading up to the rooms were littered with homeless people shouting and jeering at you as you passed which really wasn't helpful when our key code stopped working on our second night. (Luckily the manager on shift was fantastic and quickly sorted it out.)

It's always nice to stay at the Holiday Chalet. We didn't get our usual room, which is amazing, but the room we had was sufficient for our quick visit.
