Leadville Hostels

Pros: 1) Staff at hostel were helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. 2) Great shared amenities like a shared fridge, food storage, kitchen appliances, living room with large TV, laundry. Parking really easy right in front of building. 3) Excellent tap water. Cons: 1) I got a single room with a double bed (the Mt Massive room). It did not have a window and I felt really stuffy, and would feel better leaving the room. 2) Rooms do not insulate noise from the outside easily. There are quiet hours after 10pm, but a lot of guests were going to bed earlier for pre sunrise hikes. They do provide ear plugs. 3) Showers unavailable for use between 11am and 2pm. I found that odd given many were returning from morning activities during that time. 4) center of Leadville is a 13 min walk away, at the bottom of the road. If you walk, you’ll have to walk uphill. If I were to stay again, it would be in a private room with windows and a bathroom in a group.
