This was our first and probably only trip to Aspen because it's just too expensive for us but the Aspen Mountain Lodge was a great place to stay at a price we could afford. The staff was friendly and helpful and the location was perfect. The rooms could use some TLC, but then they'd have to charge more. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. The best little surprise was the "continental" breakfast which had hard boiled eggs, yogurt, delicious fruit, various cereals and nuts, French toast and waffle with a machine to run them through, plus breads and bagels, and of course coffee, tea, milk and juices. We would definitely recommend to others. You'll need to save the money for restaurants and skiing!
