Murphy's River Lodge

Water flowing is nice if you can snag a room facing it, otherwise you’re facing the parking lot. They called me to let me know my room was available a few hours early although I wasn’t able to take that option due to my long drive into town.

The ice machine is the type that people have to lift the large lid up and then put their hands inside to grab the scooper to get ice. During COVID, this seems highly unsanitary because I saw many not using masks in that room or sanitizing hands before scooping with the provided sanitizer pump. It needs to be changed to the kind where you press a button and ice releases. Also, if you are on the bottom level, pray your upstairs neighbors walk lightly.

Spacious room and very comfortable.

New blinds needed on windows, some weren't working.

walking distance to downtown estes park. friendly staff. clean rooms

need privacy curtains to allow light in and provide privacy instead of just heavy night shade curtains. maybe add more protein for breakfast like eggs, yogurt, milk, or cheese. i understand the pandemic situation but the choices are limited to bread and fruits.
