The property was clean and comfortable but old, rundown and the outside was a mess with weeds growing, rotting wood and huge puddles in the parking lot. When we stayed there the was no TV or Internet. The interior decor was at least 30 years old.

No breakfast offerings, no ice, unsafe hair dryer, hair in one of the beds, television with no service, old musty/mold smelling room, and way too expensive for what we received in return. Will never stay here again. Can’t believe I paid this much for this room…will avoid Idaho Springs in the future

Maintain LOW expectations

Very old motor hotel. I honestly do not think any maintenance is done here. Think of one of those places where the owners are older and don't have the energy to do any work and are also unwilling to pay for it. As a result, everything just slowly degrades: grout falls out of the shower, paint faded/chipped/flat out missing, electrical outlets worn out, towels worn out, parking lot full of holes, grounds overrun with weeds. On the plus side the owners are fun to talk with and provide you with all the local folklore and recommendations you could ever want. Bottom line? This is Idaho Springs after all. If you want the comfort/cleanliness/newness of a standard motel you will not be staying here. You will drive another hour to Denver or one of the ski towns. If you are ok with a (relatively) inexpensive room, and can keep your expectations LOW, the Columbine is on ok place for a short stay.

Great family owned property in a town that's hard to find adequate lodging! Sam, the owner, is a gem and very kind and accommodating and obviously takes immense pride in his adorable mountain inn! Easy parking and homey rooms make it an easy option when traveling through Idaho Springs!

The property was dated but it was like staying in a guest room at my grandparents house. It was clean enough. There are stains here and there and some dust bunnies but nothing threw a red flag for us. The owner was great. He recently updated the TVs in the room to smart TVs and couldn’t get ours to work so he offered to let us switch rooms. We were in town Monday - Saturday. It was very quiet every evening, except Friday night but it was the 4th of July so it was expected. It’s not a fancy hotel so don’t expect fancy. It was cozy and low key. Exactly as expected.
