Upon check in , the front desk guy was not welcoming as one would expect in such a lovely location. Not one smile or “welcome to Blue Door Inn” , Apparently this is his baseline as every encounter with him (owner or mgr ?) was the same. Maybe he needs a vacation or a hug.

The room itself was clean and comfortable and spacious. We had a mountain view. The pool was “open” but it was not heated as advertised and the hot tub was not filled. There’s no space for a fire to sit under the night sky, also advertised but not available. Breakfast was mediocre; we ended up getting food elsewhere and I had hoped to save some money with the continental breakfast. Needs more options for choices. The location was good; close to Estes Park Visitor center about 1/4 mile where you can catch the Hiker Shuttle (highly recommend) and the River walk to town.

Very friendly staff! Super affordable, just would say some of the rooms are a little outdated, but overall not a bad stay.

Close to town, not too far from good hikes, and clean beds. The pack and play was pretty old and dirty, but most people won’t need that.
