The location for Nicky’s Resort is great. It sits beside a river, has an attached restaurant, and is only minutes to downtown Estes Park and the entrance to RMNP. There is a small four-hole putting green, pool, fire pit, a small deck overlooking the river, and beautiful hanging baskets of flowers.
The deck could use some sprucing up with new furniture, and the fire pit would be a great place to relax after a long hike if it had some comfy furniture.
Housekeeping in our hotel room was lacking. The beds were clean and there were no bugs so we stayed, but the baseboards were covered in dust, there were crumbs under the microwave and behind the refrigerator, the shower was very moldy in the corners and the air conditioner spit out tiny black specks onto the bed the entire time we were there. The room definitely needed a deep cleaning.
The price was good, and since we were trying to spend very little, Nicky’s fit the bill. Honestly, this place has great potential. If the deck were repainted, the furniture on the deck and around the fire pit replaced, and the room was cleaner, it would be a fabulous place to stay. As it is, I’d say it’s just okay.
