Crossland Economy Studios – Denver – Cherry Creek

Ghetto. Do-​able if you need cheap, but my room reeked of cigarette smoke (couldn’t get rid of it the whole time, even though I blasted the a.c. with the window open for over an hour), there was a patched up hole punched in the drywall behind the door because the door doesn’t have a stopper of any kind, the shower curtain was not quite long/​heavy enough to keep it from billowing in at me during my shower (which sucked because the shower was otherwise good: actually surprisingly large (although made of cheap plastic) and the water stayed as hot as I wanted during my long shower), half the washers and dryers were out of order in the laundry room, they advertise wifi but the free option when you sign in is suuuper slow, the elevator looked like it has never been cleaned, the room was very dated and everything in it looked cheap/​poorly made… Lots of stuff like that– not critical but unpleasant/​disappointing. It’s a shame because the place wouldn’t be half bad if they just cleaned/​fixed everything and invested a tiny amount into things like door stoppers and better internet.

Filthiest hotel I’ve ever seen. The carpet looked as if it had been peed all over, the room smelled, there were crumbs on the table and the floor in the mini-​kitchen had clearly not been vacuumed or cleaned. There was even some sort of unidentifiable spoolge on the regrigerator door that looked like green guamole. I booked a non-​smoking room but it reaked of smoke, and there were burn marks on the bedspread (which looked like it hadn’t been washed since the day the hotel opened. I ran… and booked another hotel. This place is a cheap price for a reason.

I really would give this a negative 100 stars if that were possible. This place was atrocious. I booked the room for the price, but after arriving, I opted out of staying here. There were drug deals going down in the parking lot, heroin addicts passed out in front of the building, and angry couples fighting with one another in the breezeway. I felt unsafe, as did my girlfriend, so we took off. The coup de gras, though, was seeing the room next to ours with the door open as we left. That is what I posted a picture of. They room actually looked liked this, and while I was taking this photo, I saw a rat run from under the bed to the bathroom. DO NOT STAY HERE! DO NOT! YOU WILL REGRET IT! This place should not be available for the public to stay.

DO NOT STAY HERE! NOT WORTH THE MONEY!

This place is atrocious. The condition of the building is terrible. You can hear every movement in the walls all around you.
The front desk staff was mostly unprofessional. And they would post signs on the door that would make the grammar police cry.
Almost every time we went to the office, we had to call them on a phone from outside cause whoever was staffed at the time just didn’t want to be tending the front desk. They’d rather just sit in the back being lazy.
Also, upon our first entry into the hotel room, a few things I noticed right off the bat: the TV was older than me, with no remote available, there was no hand soap to be found anywhere until I went to the front desk to ask, and they don’t even have a trash can in there!
Also, for whatever reason, the toilet couldn’t even flush any toiletries on the first flush. Not very pleasant.
The only good thing I have to say is that I was at least able to iron my clothes there. Otherwise this hotel would have been given 0 stars. I will never stay here again.

This place is the nastiest place I have ever been in it smelled like cigarettes which the place is supposed to be non smoking, the bed box spring was dirty with what looking like something spilled on it, the sink dripped and was rusted out there was dirt all over the floor and even hair in the microwave and my husband found a rusted needle on the carpet oh and where the smoke alarm was supposed to be was nothing but hanging wires. I check in with my 2 and 5 year which they put us on the 3^rd floor then called several time tell me that down stairs people were complaining so I told them well then move me to a bottom floor which they did and omg the room smelled like a cat litter box and at that point I immediately checked out if you can avoid this place so it by all means this place doesn’t even deserve the one star I’m giving it

I have now been staying here for almost a month now and they made me move to the third floor for reasons that dont make any sense! They say the first floor is for daily use only but I dont understand why they won’t just let me stay in that room instead of make me move all my stuff in the cold up 3 floors when they are the ones that put me in that room. Every week they are supposed to offer room service but they never did for the first 2 weeks. I then had to call for it and they scheduled it but it did not happen so I then went to the office to get room service and they set it up but then the lady refused to change our sheets, I ask her why and she said because I did not move my blanks when she got there. I had to go get sheets and make the bed myself which normally is fine but I paid for the service so I should get what I paid for right? There TVs in room 315 is an old box TV no bigger then 15 inches and some of the staff are literally retarded! I have had to pay the dryer 3 times to get the load dry and its already over priced at $ 2 per use per washer and per dryer. 3 of the 5 washers are out of order.

Staying at this place is by far the worst experience in the 10 years I have traveled for work. Giving 1 star is generous. This is based off the accommodations only. Both rooms (I had to switch rooms because the first room was filthy) smelled of stale cigarette & wet dog (I’m allergic) to both. Hair every where, cigarette holes in the carpet & comforter, & piles of old cigarettes & hair on the bed rails. Not only was a stuck there for 6 days but I had to go shopping for cleaning materials so I could try to clean the room as best as I could. Don’t stay here!

If I could give this place a negative score, I would. My non-​smoking room had an unbearable stench of stale cigarettes and decomposing body. After a 17 hour day, I arrived exhausted… I tried for 30 minutes to find another place online but everything was booked due to a Broncos game :-(I slept on TOP of my covers in all my clothes… scared as to what bugs were present. Crackheads/​drunks in parking lot all night… screaming…fights in another room. In the morning, my shower leaked/​flooded the bathroom so I stepped out of the shower into a swamp. NO iron or ironing board… so, wrinkled clothes for work??? No hair dryer! Seriously! Awful doesn’t being to describe the smell… that then permeated all my clothes… I sprayed them with deodorant… still…for the area this place is super scary!!! NOT WORTH ANY AMOUNT OF MONEY! ugh. RUN!!!

The pictures online were very deceiving. It made it seem like this place was new and nice. On the contrary, it is smelly and old.

On my last trip to Denver I opted to stay at the Crossland Economy Studios– Primary reason: The Price.
This extended stay hotel is just east of Colorado Boulevard off of Alameda Avenue. It is listed as being in Glendale, but it can usually be found under a Cherry Creek listing too.
The room is pretty basic with a bed, basic cable channels on a CRT TV, a small table and chair, mini kitchenette, and bathroom with a shower (no tub). The AC unit worked well. Sufficient water pressure in the shower. All the basics in place if you just need a place to sleep for the night and a room to stash your stuff for the day while you’re out.
The bed itself was just okay. I’m not too picky about things, but I did wonder a few times about how clean everything was (the bedspread probably could have used a cleaning and the sheets/​pillow cases were wrinkled– hopefully from the laundry).
The non-​smoking room I was in (clearly marked on the door and listed on my online reservation) did have some burn marks in the shower area. But the room didn’t have a distinguishable smoke smell.
Although I received a wifi code at the front desk, I couldn’t get their wifi working on my laptop. Their wifi name was a bit cryptic, so if you stay be sure to ask what their wifi is called. Since I was only staying one night, I didn’t pursue why their wifi wouldn’t work for me. Rather, I was able to pick up the signal from a neighboring business and just used that for my quick email checks.
I noticed a laundry room on site for guests to use. The attendant at the front desk was helpful and recommended places to eat in the area. No problems at all with check in or check out.
Overall, this isn’t a bad place to stay, in my opinion. It’s just pretty basic. I have seen better and I have seen worse. But again, for the price and location, this was exactly what I needed for my overnight stay and my tight budget.
Note: There’s another extended stay hotel (Homestead Studio Suites) a few spaces west of this property that may have similar rates. So compare prices before booking.

Remember the old television show Lost in Space? Staying at Crossland Economy Studios is like being lost in Denver. Oh the property looks inviting from the outside; to some degree so did the Bates Motel. However, inside there may be one pillow on your bed. You can try to get more; good luck. The bedspread had cigarette holes. I found that interesting since this is a non-​smoking room. The temperature today was a high of 87… that was inside the room with the AC on full blast. I am OVER JOYED that I can get the hell out of this cease-​pool tomorrow morning. YIKES! Oh yeah… about the cheap rates… remember one of the famous catch phrases from Lost in Space…“Danger Will Robinson, Danger!!!” You get what you pay for.
