Grand River Hotel

Adding in a $14 “parking fee” is a rip off and feels like a way for them to get reservations because of the inexpensive rate, but then add in $14 when you arrive. Still was a fine stay though, no complaints besides the parking fee.

Room was clean and comfortable. We ate at the restaurant and it wasn’t great. Somehow both burnt and undercooked.

there are a couple things to note here. The first is the exceptional staff - the men I talked to about staying there the night I got there were great, and very helpful! I have a few inconveniences which is causing me to rate this property 3 stars. First, the price was advertised as $58 on ******* with free breakfast. Breakfast is not in fact free and costs $14.95. This wasn't an issue for me since I was going to be leaving to get coffee and food at the coffee shop across the street anyways but it's misleading to those who would partake in breakfast. Second, the parking is $14!! it seems a little weird to charge for parking, especially in a place with literally zero people. This also makes the price of $58 for the night i was staying misleading because it's actually $72. Something to think about (apparently, most/all the hotels in Parachute, CO seem to charge for parking. Go figure.) Third and finally, the state of the room was totally fine, except one of the bath towels had a lot of stains (presumably makeup stains). I'm used to seeing these sorts of stains since my fiance sometimes uses a towel to take makeup off, but in a hotel, it makes it appear as if they didn't clean the towel. For the record, all the other towels (three of the four bath towels, both hand towels and both wash clothes) were stain free. I suppose if i hadn't picked the one bath towel i did, I would not have noticed it. Seems like something that should be noted!
