The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The bathroom was very small with a short toilet. The sink in the room was also small, so no place to put toiletries. I would not recommend for anyone who has trouble with stairs.

Hotel quality dropped significantly
Terrible customer service from the front desk lady. Extremely rude and unprofessional. Additionally, there was no real breakfast offered. Just cold bread and cold sweet pastries. The new management team is very deficient. Trying to cut corners everywhere they can.

Overall good stay. Hot tub wasn't working properly so it was a hot soaker tub. Staff was amazing. Great homemade breakfast, and they are super friendly. I'd stay again.

St Elmo is a quintessential Ouray hotel.
Well restored, maintained hotel, very welcoming and comfortable. The people were friendly. Hotel is on the main street and everything was within walking distance.

Liked the layout of the room(s). The bed was very comfortable, however, I have knee problems and had to have help getting up into it. Had Keurig Coffee Maker in room - no coffee pods, only two mugs (room sleeps 6 and they knew there were 5 of us). No sugar. End of hall community coffee maker - very few coffee pods. No cups. The private patio was fantastic. Loved it, we had a very enjoyable evening. The breakfast was wonderful. The lady making the breakfast was very accomodating.
