GREAT place for dorm-style lodging! And, for family in one room style too. :-)

Awesome first experience at the pad! Everyone was very nice and I'd come back next time I'm in Colorado! Only part that wasn't perfect is the parking lot, but if you come before 5, you'll be fine when it comes to parking!

I'd do 5 starts, but parking is a bit of a pain -- in fairness NOT just for The Pad, but for Silverthorne in general. EXCELLENT place to stay, especially if you can do dorm / hostel style lodging! Been there before, DEFINITELY will go back!

We had such a great experience at the Pad. We absolutely loved it. The staff was amazing. Dwayne at the bar was awesome. We loved all the different spaces to hang out and the yoga was a bonus. Loved it all. And we are back next month.

Great spot! Really close to everything and the staff are phenomenal. The private rooms were quiet, and showers were awesome after a day of snowboarding. Hot tub worked well. Only complaint is I wish there was more parking available closer to the spot. The extra parking is like a 10 minute walk which sucks if it's real cold out.

Definitely will be back.
I've stayed at one other Hostel before and this one is 10xs better. The lockers are big, there's plenty of showers, sinks, and restrooms in the community bathrooms, and love that there's a kitchen. The staff were all very pleasant. The location is awesome. However, one thing I would recommend is to add curtains to the beds. Gives us more privacy while sleeping.

Nowhere at the reservation appears that is a room without restroom or shower. It is crazy that there is no warning. A hotel room always have a private bath and restroom. Is a room without windows. Completely unacceptable. This reservation was done through EXPEDIA and nothing was explained. At the front desk they are very gentle is not their fault how EXPEDIA manages their publicity. I expecting an answer from EXPEDIA.

Hi lizbeth! The description of the room does state that there are 4 bathrooms, indicating the shared bathroom. If there was a private bathroom, the room description would be listed as private bathroom. We are not a hotel. We are a hostel. I apologize the inconvenience.

Great place. Only recommendation would be to provide curtains for the bunks to provide a little more privacy and hand out ear plugs for those in the bunks.

Better than Expected!
My stay at The Pad in Silverthorne was far better than expected. The facility is well-maintained, cleaned, and conveniently located. I also had the opportunity to talk with the front-desk attendant (Josh) for about an hour. I highly recommend staying at The Pad in Silverthorne if you find yourself needing lodging in this area of Colorado.

I loved the location and the vibe. Easy and cozy. You can have privacy or if you want to socialize the A-bar is a comfortable place to hang out. There is a creek and a walking path that take you to a cafe, restaurant and other shops. Or you can prepare your own meals in their community kitchen. The micro-rooms are great if you're traveling with a dog, but they do not have windows. Regardless, they are comfortable for a single traveler.
