How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it. Read the reviews yourself on Google Maps.

This gym is outstanding. The front desk staff is super friendly and helpful. The setters create thoughtful and challenging climbs on modern holds. The leadership of the gym is present and interested in improving. I've been a member here for 6 years and I'm so happy that I climb here. And by the way, a membership here allows you full access to 5 more Denver area gyms that are similarly excellent.

So much fun!! This was my first time climbing so a friend and I signed up for an intro class. Austin was patient and very knowledgable while teaching us. Near the end of our session, my friend and I were confident to climb and belay without Austin and we even went down to the main wall to try out a 5.9! (Huge deal for us.) I definitely plan on visiting again soon.

My 12 year old daughter and friend had an AWESOME time! Alice was such an incredible help during there belaying class. Alice was very educated on all of it and we felt so comfortable receiving the help we did from her. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!

Fantastic and huge gym! Lots of bouldering. We were entertained for hours. The front desk was helpful in maximizing guest passes. We had a fun time and were challenged! You will need to go with someone who knows how to belay and can tie a knot. Our previous experience was with automatic belays and/or had clips.
