Planning a trip there this summer, usually I stay on Peterson or the Academy but both are maxxed out for lodging.
Am I better off staying in the North at a hotel up near the Academy or farther south near Peterson and the airport? Last time I was there a couple of years ago we were moved off Peterson and into the Radisson right near the airport (right next to some restaurant with a big plane out front lol. It was a convenient location and pretty nice but more than I want to spend this time around.
Maybe just need some advice about where is a good place to stay......looking at the Ramada but heard the area wasn't the greatest....2 LaQuinta's in town, also thinking maybe the Hampton Inn or a Hilton Garden which has a decent military rate.
Just throwing it out there to see what the locals would recommend as Colorado Springs is sprawling and can take a bit of time to get from 1 end to another! I am more familiar with the area around the AFB (Powers Rd?)
Thanks
