I don’t usually take the time to write reviews unless a place really stands out—and this hostel absolutely did. I’ve had mixed experiences with hostels before, often associating them with cramped spaces, poor cleanliness, and noise, but 11th Avenue Hostel completely defied those expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by how thoughtfully designed the space is—bright, airy, and incredibly clean. My private bunk room was cozy yet spacious, offering just the right balance of comfort and privacy. What stood out most was the shared bathrooms: they’re single-use, not shared dorm-style, which made all the difference in terms of hygiene and personal space. It’s rare to find such a budget-friendly option that delivers so much more than expected. For solo travelers looking for a safe, quiet, and well-kept stay, this is an absolute gem. I’ll definitely be coming back.
We absolutely loved our stay at The Acoma House! Our time in the Alex Pangborn Suite was truly memorable—spacious, bright, and filled with natural light thanks to the large windows facing the beer garden across the street. The room was spotless and thoughtfully appointed, making it feel like a true home away from home. We were especially grateful that Christina and Kaitlin accommodated our early check-in request, which made our evening plans to catch a show at Red Rocks so much smoother. The complimentary water and coffee creamers were a nice touch—simple but appreciated. From start to finish, the service was warm and attentive, and we left feeling completely satisfied. This is definitely a place we’d return to without hesitation.
