STAY ELSEWHERE! The hotel itself seemed updated and nice enough, but the service is the absolute worst we’ve ever experienced. Management (if you can call it that) was horrible and not only did nothing to help us, but they scammed us and forced us to leave after the first night of our four night stay… we had reported our blind being broken the first morning there when we realized we could not open it to let the sun in – and Johnathon, the GM, who answered the call - immediately accused us of breaking it. After I called to simply report a broken blind, he responded with “so YOU broke it?!” to which I said “no, that is not what I said.” Later that day he called my friend while we were an hour and a half away stating that he was going to charge us up to $500 for the damage (that we did not cause) and when my friend refused to pay for something we did not do, he told us we would have to leave the hotel within the hour (not possible since we were so far away)… he gave us an extra two hours to leave hotel, which we did after cancelling a reservation that we had made for that day that we could no longer make after this inconvenience.. but he also threatened to call the police if we approached the front desk simply to get a receipt for the three nights that he told us he was going to refund us. Bob was given a heads up and assisted us when we went to the front desk to check out (Bob was nicer but still probably shouldn’t be in customer service if I’m being honest)… and stated we would be refunded for the three nights we weren’t staying. It is now almost two weeks later and there is still no refund, only a snarky email response from Johnathon stating lies on the situation and how “no refund was promised” which is absolute BS.. Not only was this situation absolute insanity in itself, but it ruined multiple plans we had over our short trip to the area… DO NOT stay here. Castle Rock is very pretty, and it seemed like a great town – but stay at a different hotel in the area. Don’t give these scammers your money. (Also the breakfast was bare and I just felt the need to add this in there).
