    Upon entering Hans & Miriam's home in the evening I was often met by the fragrance of baking goods for the next morning. I experienced a simple quality, quiet comfort, warm and welcoming hosts, fresh air (no ac, thank goodness), good views, and delicious breakfasts. Perfect. I maintain a simple lifestyle and was always in by about 9 in the evening.

    We stayed four nights while hiking in Rocky Mountain Natl. Park during the days. Owners, Hans and Miriam, had good support resources and materials on the park. Breakfast was creative and wholesome. We liked their flexibility and willingness to accomodate the various other guests' requests. Hans even lent us a backpack when we needed an extra one.

    Wonderful B&B experience

    May 29, 2011. Hans and Miriam are wonderful hosts. Their B&B is like visiting your grandmother's house. The accomodations are not like a high end spa, which has become the norm with B&B's it seems. They have a home with clean accomodations, wonderful conversation, helpful hints of the area, and excellent breakfasts. They have thousands of books and no tvs in the room, which was fine with us. We appreciated finding a reasonably priced B&B and highly recommend it.

    Amazing experience

    We stayed at Quilt house over the labor day weekend and had a great experience. Hans and Miriam are wonderful hosts. The room was cozy and has a private bath. The variety of breakfast that Miriam prepared for us was remarkable. The conversation over the breakfast table, the view of the mountains from the guest room, the quilt decoration in the house, and the pretty souvenirs that Mariam had crocheted were very nice. To sum up, our experience was just perfect!

    Pulled into Hans and Miriam's Quilt House after getting soaking wet on my motorcycle. Their cozy rooms and welcoming attitude were just what I needed to get back into a good mood. This is probably the best value in the Colorado Rockies considering the comfortable room, nice private bath, and outstanding breakfast. Would definitely stay there again. Keep a sharp eye out for the Quilt House sign, it's small and the street number is not in sequence with its preceding neighbors on Riverside Drive.
