Just lovely. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will absolutely be back if we are in the area. It’s a beautiful place, but the real highlights are the folks that work here. Everyone was welcoming, super helpful, and great conversation! Seriously, I can’t stress enough- these people are AMAZING and we love them. The room was clean and comfortable and the kitchen area is so great. It’s a convenient location and a cool place to be if you want something a little more local than a chain hotel, but without sacrificing amenities.

I can't thank the owners and staff enough. This place is amazing! My family and I stayed here for a night on our way to Wyoming. The rooms are clean and nice, the staff is friendly and helpful and the place is something that you can only imagine! It's beautiful, quite, and welcoming all at the same time. The other guest seemed to feel the same way too. I made a few friends from conversation and sharing stories. It also was a perfect place to enjoy and explore the local area. I wish this place was in every town, I think people would enjoy their stays, experience, and area a lot more! Thanks again for such a wonderful place for my family and I to enjoy!

A unique hostel in a quiet neighborhood in Ft Collins. Friendly staff and very easy to meet other people staying. Waffles and coffee for breakfast daily are great. Shared kitchen. We got a private room with bath but a dorm and shared bath was available for less. Really loved the casual vibe, the 420 friendly accommodations and the grounds.

This is a beautiful little getaway in the middle of Fort Collins. The indoor Atrium is gorgeous, the outdoor Tee Pee is very cool, and there are yoga classes provided. the place feels very peaceful. Our room was great, it wasn't completely clean however it wasn't dirty either. Love the experience, would come back many more times.

Solarium is otherwordly. This was my first stay at a hostel, so I was a bit skeptical when reserving our room. I was blown away upon our arrival. The front desk associate Sarah was very helpful and personable, she gave us a tour and showed us to our room (the Yellow room). Everyone who was staying during our time here was very nice and a pleasure to be around. I love that we had the opportunity to meet people but also have time to ourselves when we wanted. The accommodations were very neat, clean and simple which we loved. We will definitely come back to the little piece of heaven on earth. 10/10.

Wonderful place to relax and the staff are awesome. Meeting new and different people is always a plus and a Hostel is ideal for that. Great setting and location...a slice of peace in Fort Collins. Shame about only being allowed to stay 14 days in a calendar year...probably a good idea cause I wouldn't leave. Thanks to everyone for making my two week stay feel like home!

Beyond Perfect! Unique and detailed oriented. We Stayed in the Silver Room, very private, w/patio, full kitchen w/kitchenware, very clean, easy assess to car, extra large memory foam bed honestly so refreshing a must stay in Fort Collins. The front staff was upbeat and took the time to give us a tour and make sure we most comfortable. The greenhouse is inviting, beautiful, spacious, and meditation worthy. We will be back soon this is perfect vacation location.

I loved this place more than the Hilton i stayed at for the first half of my trip. First off, it's a hostel, not a full-service hotel. With that expectation in mind I was very happy. The bed was super comfortable, the room in general was very clean. Being able to step outside the room into basically a rainforest was very special. I only stayed one night and left pretty early, I wish I had time to relax in the solarium with all the plants!
