Great place to stay right off the main street in Leadville. Stayed in one of the private rooms and it was perfect for our family of 4.

We had a really nice stay. Our only complaint is that the mattress was so hard we had trouble sleeping and both ended up with headaches and sore necks from our two-night stay.

Awesome Hostel Near The Mountains
Very nice hostel, I even made some friends and skied with them the next day. The hosts were amazing, it was Thanksgiving and they had made a big Thanksgiving meal and everyone who was staying there that night got to eat some.

Great short stay
Great place for a one-night hiking stopover; they are well-equipped to handle people passing through and have built a sense of community amongst those staying. Clean, safe, and friendly environment.

Very convenient and affordable alternative to staying in Vail to ski. Stayed here last year too and will come back in the summer during hiking season.
