I have never stayed in a hostel in my life, and frankly never ever wanted to. That said, Ember became my Arcadia given the ridiculous set of circumstances which caused me to stay here. Being someone that is used to nothing less than four star hotels, especially in CO where I frequently come, Ember is by far the winningest place to stay in Denver. Between the quality of people staying there, the staff, and the amenities, I’m not sure which deserves more extol. It was surprisingly clean and extremely well kept. There was always someone around to answer questions, and to provide great food/activity recommendations. And as an added bonus, and at the risk of sounding gauche, the female staff was exceptionally attractive.
