What guests think

At Satellite Hotel, travelers describe an older, quirky condo-hotel with balconies and mountain views, generally good value, but with inconsistent upkeep and systems that sometimes struggle, especially temperature control and Wi‑Fi.

Many reviews praise clean, spacious rooms, comfortable beds, and the retro vibe with usable balconies. Facilities draw mixed feedback: the large outdoor pool and on-site Orbit diner/lounge can be great, but closures, limited breakfast, extra coffee charges, and murky water are noted. Service is often friendly and responsive, yet some guests report slow or rude check-ins, key card problems, and inconsistent housekeeping. Expect budget-friendly comfort in a unique, aging property with variable consistency.

I like the location and that you could see the hotel easily from the road, so it was easy to find. However, we did not have Wi-Fi all week, and we had to use a lot of data. I would not have stayed there had I known the Wi-Fi issue. I asked about it every day, and I was told that they were having issues and would restart it. Very disappointing! Would not stay there again.

Overall, check in was good with a friendly staff member. No bar of soap was in the room at check in but I ended up buying some hand soap. Interesting place, 10 flooors with a owning residents, airbnb, hotels. The place was clean and had working items, coffee maker, fridge, iron/board, etc. I'd upgrade the shower heads, towels, and the building I know is older but some freshener in the hall would be awesome. Overall, very clean. Fitness gym is better than most hotels. Check out with an employee that could work on his professional demeanor but didn't ruin my day. I'd probably stay again.

In this day and age with so many options to get to the internet. This hotel decided to go with who ever is the most unreliable, off more times then it is on, slow to non-existent, joke of a service. If you can't provide simple daily Internet service to your paying guests. Why are you in this business in the first place?????????? Never Again!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We live 40 miles from this property but wanted to come here to view the 4th of July fireworks. Even though we were on the second floor, the balcony view worked out fine. The mattress was fantastic. We had a great night's sleep. The heating and A/C is centralized, but there is an output fan in the room that you can adjust. We turned it off, but the air bleed was just enough to keep the room at a good temperature. The oversized outdoor pool was immaculately clean and obviously heated. The bathroom was small, the towels rough, and the shower needed grab bars. Since this is a 12 story building with residence on the upper floor the hotel has three top notch Otis elevators. The property is very tastefully landscaped and nearly like a park. Pop for the upgraded room so you face West for the mountain view and avoid the East side noise from Academy Blvd. For a 50 year old building it is obvious that money is being spent on it. The staff is great. This is a great value and a surprisingly good experience.

Interesting setup. Condos, hotel rooms and shops in a high rise building. Room was small, queen bed, easy chair, desk chair, refrigerator. Older building. The bed and pillows were comfortable. Air conditioner was good but you need to turn the fan on in a separate location for it to cool. Excellent cafe breakfast, made fresh, with table service. No menu choices, but really didnt need it. The cafe was no longer avaliable for (included) breakfast our last day there. Continental breakfast in a conference room that day. Not sure what happened. Toaster, microwave and refrigerator brand new, with pastries and microwave breakfast sandwiches. Parking was not easy. We had a commercial oversized van so we had to park on the fringes.

The staff was all very nice especially the restaurant owner , the pool was amazing and they had the crew out cleaning it every morning at 7am when i went outside to drink coffee. We had a very comfy bed as well. And the price is doable . We will definitely come back we stayed a week on our vacation.

Just needed a night to stay before departing CO Springs. Reviews said this was a great hotel. Upon walking in, it was definitely dated, ok no problem, get checked in and go to my room to find it had not been cleaned took photos and went back down to the front desk. The receptionist apologized and referenced putting me in an upgraded zing suite for my troubles. I walk into the new room and it’s “cleaned” but severely outdated and smells old and musty. The bathroom was also outdated and had a terrible smell associated as well. The old room that wasn’t cleaned was more updated than the one they moved me to. As I walked down the hallway there were doors damaged and one with a big hole as if it were kicked in. This hotel gave me a very uncomfortable and unsettling feeling.

My husband and I had to find a hotel in CO Springs at the last minute, and after reading a few mixed reviews online about the Satellite Hotel, we decided to stop to see if rooms were available. They were almost sold out, but we were able to get a standard room. All we cared about was its cleanliness. The hotel is older, but parking was plentiful, and the room was very clean. The construction of the hotel is solid, so you could not hear people stomping down the hallway, like you can in other hotels. The bed was firm, sheets were clean, bathroom was very clean. Overall, I liked the overnight stay, and would definitely stay again.

Booked a stay for two nights (Fri & Sat). Our flight was delayed Fri night, so we weren't able to arrive until Saturday. Upon arrival, I was "greeted" by a man that seemed as if he was inconvenienced to be doing his job. I asked to check-in to our room and was giving a "ROOM WONT BE READY UNTIL 3p!" response. I explained that we actually had already prepaid for the prior evening's room and had flight delays. To my understanding, my room should have been vacant and available 24 hours before this...yet, it still wasn't ready? The front desk agent literally yelled at me and said once again, "IT WON'T BE READY UNTIL 3P". It was 10a and snowing outside. Where were me and my wife supposed to go for FIVE HOURS to wait with all our luggage? The property's lobby was filthy and staff's attitudes were absolutely unacceptable. Needless to say, we were forced to check-in another hotel because of these issues and pay out-of-pocket for another night. I DEMAND A REFUND for this property, immediately. I have never been treated so heinously when simplying trying to explain my situation. Especially after paying good money ahead of time! Please, immediately fire your weekend lobby staff. I await my refund in full. Thank you.

I got charged for an extra night for checking out 8 minutes late. Do these people not understand it takes time to get to an elevator and then get downstairs? Was out of my room at exactly checkout time. Plus I had to wait for the attendant when I got down to the front desk to check out. The online checkout wouldn’t work either saying it couldn’t charge my card even though I’d already paid through Expedia. On top of this, when I got there it took 15 minutes for the attendant to check me in last night. Overall horrible customer service, don’t stay here

This is a great place for economy and comfort. Pet lovers will love it. A great ground for dogs to play. Owners were respectful and took care of the business. The balcony is a plus. I don't think there is another hotel in the vicinity that has balconies.For the money this is a great spot.

The Customer Service Rep that was there on Friday when we checked in was so polite and friendly. I had two encounters with the gentleman who was there on Saturday and he had very poor customer service skills. I came to the front desk and said "Good Morning, how are you". His response was "what do you need". I asked him where I could get decaf coffee and he replied the restaurant; which did not have decaf. He needs a little polishing.

It took literally 2 hours from the time I checked-in at the front desk to getting in my Room. The Rook key didn't work. And the next hours unfolded with failed effort after failed effort to get their system to work while I waited in the lobby. It wasn't clear whether or not it would ever work with their "new System." Front Desk Clerk was truly trying heartfully, but it was sickening that they couldn't get me in a room until 2 hours later. Expedia was no help on the phone. It was a paradox because I was already checked-in but couldn't get in my room. Finally, I got in a room, losing 2 hours of what I had otherwise planned to do.

When we first arrived, we were very skeptical. My wife, who is from Japan, noted that this Condo/Hotel hybrid looked like a Japanese apartment complex. The staff was friendly and the rooms, though dated, were nice. This had the vibe of an old Las Vegas hotel, with a 1970's aesthetic. This being said, it was well-ran and even had a decent restaurant in it that was open from 7AM - 1PM. For the price, this was actually excellent and we ended up really enjoying our stay here. A pleasant surprise overall!

This area of town did not have a lot going on as far as restaurants or attractions. The weekend I was there this was much cheaper than other options in better parts of town. I am not unhappy with my stay as it was a business trip. If I were there for vacation with family I would choose a better part of town to stay in.

Soon as we drove in it looked very sketchy. Looks like it’s a residential property besides being a hotel. When checking in there was a guy talking smack at the staff calling them gay slurs. Staff guy was professional. It appears that guy was a resident. There were also sketchy people outside sitting on a bench by entrance. Room was clean it’s ok lil outdated. Free breakfast was good not buffet but freshly made.
