    If I'd have to deliver in Denver (yak) and lay over a day, I'd stay in Cheyenne. Otherwise Motel, Hotel BEFORE or AFTER Denver, nothing in it.

    PS: there are so many small and medium TSs around Denver, why in?

    Denver is a parking nightmare. I always try to plan to get out of town by 50 miles or more for a chance to park. More is better unless you are early. Do as others have said and reserve early if you need to stay there.

    If you can cut down to Limon and don’t mind being out a little ways there’s a TA Petro and J

    Haven’t been there in a few years but there was a bar restaurant next to TA. Mexican restaurant same area and a few other things I believe

    The Love's in Hudson isn't bad. There's a pizza place and coffee stand at the end of the truck stop exit. There's a small Kum & Go with like 10 spots near Transwest Brighton. A problem with the TA and Sapp Bros in Commerce City is the parking is not designed very well, so there's an increased chance of an accident when parked or parking.
     
    tscottme Thanks this.

    Yup, up in the mountains north of the copper mine that’s up there. Been there once before but in early fall. Log home pieces parts

    If you time it so you hit Eisenhower at noon. You won't have to chain up. Unless you're in a storm. You can also check Co. 511.

    Agree on the above recommendation. The pizza is good. I would sleep on the side of the street before I wou ld park the the TA or Sapp Bros in Commerce City. They make Calcutta look like a quiet suburban neighborhood.

    Sterling? You didn't say you were coming down i76. :rolleyes:
    Ah... the great metropolis of Sterling.
    I guess I missed that you were looking for a hotel room.
