Lonely Planet "A good-value (for Aspen) spot within walking distance of downtown, Aspen Mountain Lodge goes the extra mile. ... The hospitality is excellent, and rooms, while a bit generic, are comfortable." Full review
BlackBook "Mellow, cozy lodge in the quaint section of town. Feels almost camp-style but with a wet bar and continental breakfast. 4 floors of 300 sq. ft. rooms with queen beds and great views."

Afar Magazine "The huts are heated by wood-burning stoves, which melt snow for water. The kitchens run on propane burners and the guests share responsibilities of maintaining the heat and cleanliness of the hut." Full review
