Pueblo Viejo Windsor Colorado

November 3, 2014

 

There were two handicap spots right in front one was a van accessible spot which we used.  The loading zone was a little small but when I turned quick at the end of the ramp I was able to get out. Inside was not too bad for getting around. We were seated at a large table because everything else mostly was full. The table worked mostly all right except it was like tiles on parts of it which made it a little difficult to slide my drink over it. When we left our waiter/hostess make sure to hold the door for us and thanked us as we left we left.

The Berkshire - Denver Colorado

October 29, 2014

There was a fair amount parking back behind but not necessarily too many handicap spots. we found a spot with an empty spot next to it and parked. The sidewalk that went along the side of the building up to the front looked a little skinny. But there was a little hallway that went through the building. So we came out the front then took the sidewalk to the next door which was the Berkshire. Once there the doorway area was little crowded with two doors and not a lot of space. And from there it wasn't too bad to get to our table but was right next to where the waitresses fill the drinks so I didn't want to back up at the wrong time. To use the bathroom it was little difficult I had to go past the door before someone could open it and then turn around and come back to get in it. Inside there was not a ton of room and I couldn't fit in the stall. Although I did notice later that in the other part of the restaurant there was a handicapped bathroom.

Wing shack - Windsor Colorado

October 24, 2014

There is a nice handicap parking spot right in front of the restaurant that is also connected to the car wash. The door was easy enough to get in.  The restroom was to the left immediately and down a narrow hallway which was a little crowded, but I did make it. Inside the restroom was a stall that I would've only been able to fit partly in, but it didn't matter since the door locked. I was just able to go where there was more room in front of the urinal on the wall. It was easy enough to get through the restaurant up to the counter and it worked just as good as most counters. Then I needed help filling my drink like everywhere. This place only has booths but they are wide enough that I could get in the end, but it then makes it hard for somebody to get out of the booth to refill drinks or whatever.

There isn't any parking right in front since there's a waterfall, but a couple doors down right by the gelato place and by the public restrooms, which have a very nice family room, there were a couple of handicap spots. When we entered the restaurant they asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside we picked inside and they said that they have two levels of the restaurant and the lower part was busy and closed for a party, but they said they could put us in the private meeting room. This worked just fine and I think we ended up leaving before party even got there anyway. Also the restroom is pretty good for accessibility.

Cantina Laredo Boulder Colorado

September 1, 2014

There was a little bit of street parking around the place, but I don't think any of them were handicapped. There was however a parking garage directly across the street and the restaurant also backed up to Home Depot so since Home Depot's parking lot wasn't really full we parked there out a ways were there wasn't any traffic. They have two doors one that spins and one regular door so I had to use the regular. Inside there was plenty of space everywhere and easy to move anywhere I needed to. The table we had was good and had no problems with it. The bathroom is very accessible the stall had plenty of room but it might've been the oddest shaped stall I’ve ever been in with five sides, there was a good amount of space around the sink as well.

Grimaldi's pizza Denver Colorado

This is located on the 16th St., Mall in Denver and there is a parking lot that is really close. We didn't park there; we parked a couple of blocks away from there and walked. This wasn't too bad except for there being so many people and some that don't pay attention where they’re walking. Inside the restaurant was a little crowded right up front, but besides that was plenty of room to get around and take it to the restroom. There was enough room in the stall and everything but not a ton of extra room around the sink and everywhere else in the restroom because I kind of had to be in the way the main bathroom door.

Las Delicias Denver Colorado

When we arrived for dinner the parking lot was full so dad just dropped me and mom off of by the restaurant and to get our name on the waiting list. He went and parked across the street in their overflow parking garage. Inside the main problem was there were so many people waiting.  Other than that it wasn't too hard to get around. The table we ended up at was okay at work fine, but it was also right next to the restroom. So the restroom was easy to get to but the stall wasn’t very big so I just used my urinal in front of the stall.

Chilli house Fort Collins Colorado

Previously at this place for the cutout to get onto the sidewalk with a wheelchair you had to get on by the Hobby lobby or at the other end of the shopping center by Schlotzsky's. However when we arrived we noticed a cut out on the sidewalk right in front. When we get to the building I couldn't get through one of the doors because of where their magazine rack was sitting, but with the other door open I could get in. The table we had was a little bit on the low side and a little harder for me to eat off of. There was enough room to move around the restaurant.

Blake St., Tavern Denver Colorado

There’s a decent parking lot in the back with a good enough handicap spot or two. Once you're parked or parked elsewhere and walked/drove a wheelchair there is no wheelchair access to the front door. So you have to go up a ramp in the back and in the emergency exit and you end up by the restrooms which worked and were not too bad for accessibility with an okay stall and an all right sink. Then when you get into the restaurant you have to make your way up to the front room here everything worked fine and easy enough to get between all tables and around the place.

Springhill Suites Salt Lake City airport

June 16-20

This is the hotel we stayed in for our time in Salt Lake City. We had made reservations for a two Queen accessible room with a roll in shower. When we arrived the place was very accessible with an automatic door to get in the front and plenty of space in the lobby area. When checking in my mom asked to make sure that there was a roll in shower because we've had that problem before. They said yes it did. So we go up to the room and I go look in the bathroom and there's a tub. So back downstairs we go. When we returned to tell them at the front desk that there was no roll in shower they acted very surprised. Apparently their computer system has that room marked as a two Queen with a roll in shower. So the one lady at the front desk took a list of the handicapped rooms available and went to check to see if they had what their supposed to have. When she came back she said they didn't have any two Queens with a roll in showers available tonight. So she tried to call around to other hotels after this didn't turn up anything she said we could stay in the room without the roll in shower for one night at a discount and then move in the morning for the rest of our stay. Since this was our best option we took it. And it worked okay except for being a pain to have to move everything and taking up time.

 

 

 

These rooms were both about the same with two Queen beds and a bit of a sitting area with a couch. For the bathrooms there were basically two of them one with the toilet and sink and one with a shower and sink. In our accessible room I tried to get in the bathroom and could not fit in with my power chair. The door was wide enough however because of where the beds were you couldn’t come straight into the door meaning you had to pull up to the door and turn in. So I wasn't able to get into either the bathroom rooms with my power chair. But the good news was my shower/toilet chair fit in. The roll in shower worked all right but was a little on the skinny side and a little extra space in the shower would've been nice.

 

Also in the room was a table that worked well for me to get under which was good since that's where I had to brush my teeth. The best part was my hoyer lift could go underneath the bed which was great since we didn't have to move me around so much to get in and out of it.

Lincoln Memorial rest area Interstate 80 exit 323

 This was a nice rest area that we stopped at before mostly because there's a good amount of area inside the sit and rest. I didn't see if family accessible room so we just use the regular restroom which worked okay.

 

 
 
 

 

Subway Rawlins Wyoming

June 20, 2014

When we arrived we ran into our first problem.  There was a truck that was parked with their front blocking the ramp to get on the sidewalk. So after I think they realized this they moved so we could get on the sidewalk. Then it was easy to get in the restaurant and there was an accessible table that worked great.  It was also very easy to get around the restaurant. The bathroom wasn’t the best but there was enough room.

This rest area was just like the previous one we visited at Fort Steele in the building set up and the parking lot. However the accessible bathroom was more spacious and quite a bit easier to use. And no full blast air-conditioning.

 

 

 

 

Salt city burger company Sandy Utah

June 20, 2014

When we arrived here there was a very good handicap parking spot right in front.  Then when we entered the restaurant they told to sit wherever we thought would work best.   This was nice because sometimes they try to sit you at places that will not work like a booth. We picked a table that worked well. It was easy to get to the condiment and topping bar for your burger. Before we left I went to the restroom and the only problem was there were some chairs that were in the way down the hallway toward the bathroom. My dad moved a couple of them so I could get to the restroom. This was a very good restroom, pretty big and was very accessible.

Smith's ballpark Salt Lake City bees Salt Lake City Utah

June 19, 2014

We parked in the parking lot that is across the street up in the front were the handicap spots. So we just had to cross the street to get to the Stadium. We went in the gate on the third base side. There are steps just inside the gate to go up. But there is also a ramp immediately to the left after entering the gate which gets you up to the top. We used both a regular restroom which worked okay but not really all that great and a family accessible restroom which worked well. One of our seats down the first base side was a bit obstructed unless you are leaning forward but they exchanged the tickets to a couple sections over.

This place had good parking maybe not a huge lot though. We were also early so there were spots available. Inside is very easy to get around and our table worked great although it was the second one we tried as the first one was wobbly. The only real problem is the counter was really high where you order which made it a little difficult.

Red Butte Gardens Salt Lake City Utah

June 19, 2014

 

 

 

This garden is located at the University of Utah. The handicapped parking was all full when we got there so we parked out further and down to the lower part of the parking lot. So we had to walk a bit of a ways back to the building.  It was easy to get in the door. From here you had to go up an elevator and right near where you get out of the elevator is a very nice bathroom. Then to get to the garden you exit out one of the many doors. Most of the trails were accessible and there were quite a few places to sit and rest. There is a little trail that was very steep not too far from the main building.

Ruth's diner Salt Lake City Utah

June 19, 2014

Parking was not so great but at the time we were there it wasn't exactly full. So we parked where we had room. Then we walked up to the restaurant and since we have been here before we knew we couldn’t get in the front door, it goes up steps into the original diner car. So we went and in the side door by the patio where a waiter opened the door for us since we wanted to sit inside. They moved the chairs for our table for me to have room, but they moved them to the hall toward the bathroom. So they ended up in my way there. But once I made it to the bathroom I was very impressed with the bathroom, it was very accessible and much more than I thought it would be. Also our table worked very well for me.

There was street parking which we used right by the ticket window. The lady at the ticket window said she wasn't sure how to do handicap tickets. Eventually she sold us one handicap seat and two seats in the row in front. This wasn't much of an issue because there weren’t a lot of people there anyways. The restroom was all right, the stall was okay. To get up to the handicap seats there was a small elevator that we had to use. Once we got up to the top there was quite a bit of space up there and even a concession stand. However there was no restroom up here.

There was a nice parking lot just down the street where it was easy to get on the sidewalk. The sidewalk was easy enough to navigate back to the restaurant. Right at the door there was a fairly large bump. Inside the counter area was all right. From there it was easy for me to get through the restaurant to a table that worked well. There was absolutely no way I could use the restroom but everything else was all right.

This place was connected to an apartment complex. There was a little bit of parking for the restaurant and we found the fairly good handicap parking spot. Getting in was okay there were two doors but was easy enough to do. Inside we found a fairly good place to sit and the table worked well. For the restroom you have to get a key from the restaurant and go down the hall. There was a ton of space in the restroom and it was easy to get to the sink but the paper towels I could not reach.

There were a good number of handicap parking spots and was easy to get to the door from there. Inside the building there is a small dinosaur Museum and there was a little bit more upstairs with an elevator to get there. Outside there are plenty of accessible trails around with plenty of model dinosaurs to look at. Some places and things like certain bridges and parts of trails weren’t accessible. The one restroom I used was a pretty good and accessible one.

Red Iguana Salt Lake City Utah

June 17, 2014

This place was very crowded and not very accessible. The first issue was we had to wait outside for about 45 min. this was okay except for when it started pouring. So mom and I went back to the car and dad waited by the door for our name to be called with an umbrella from the restaurant. Once our wait was up we went in and quite a few people had to move for me to get past and to our table. Once we got there it was a little crowded around the table but after I got my wheelchair parked they could move the table a bit. Then the fun part was trying to get to the bathroom. The restrooms did happen to be quite close to our table, so no other customers had to move for me get past. But there was a little shelf right where I needed to turn. A couple of the staff noticed this and tried to move the shelf but then they noticed the power strip was wrapped around part of the shelf so it wouldn't move without unplugging some things. But on the other side in the corner behind the shelf was a trashcan that they moved and then could move the shelf a bit.  After this I was just barely able to get through. Once we got to the restroom was actually not too bad, a little crowded but a lot better than I expected. On the way back to our table I actually got through a little bit easier because I didn't need to make as sharp of a turn.

Two handicap spots right in front. Right at the door there was a ledge which made a big bump to go over. Inside wasn't too bad but crowded here and there. But then came the fun part when I had to go to the restroom.  It was way back there at the back it seemed like we had to keep going forever to get there. Inside I couldn't quite get in the stall so I used my urinal in front, but the stall door and bathroom door kept getting in the way and it was difficult to get to the sink.

This street just past was messed up with construction but we did make it in. There was good handicap parking on the west side of the lot.   The lot was split into two so the handicapped parking is just on one side. There were two doors to get in. Inside was basic for fast food restaurant. The door into the restroom came out of the bathroom which was good since there wasn't a ton of room inside. But the stall and sink still worked okay.

Parking wasn’t so good we parked out a ways next to an open spot.  Inside was rather crowded just about everywhere.  In the restroom I couldn’t get in the stall real well so I used my urinal in the corner.  Our table/ booth thing had seats on each side that came out further than the table, so it was a little awkward, but it was wide enough to get into.

Courtyard by Marriott Albuquerque New Mexico

March 4, 2014 and March 12, 2014

 

We were in a two Queen accessible room with a roll in shower. This was located on the first floor. One of the beds was smaller than the other I think maybe a queen and a double, but either way it worked for us. We couldn't get the lift under the bed all the way. We still had to drag me to the corner of the bed but the lift went further under the corner of the bed than expected. This wasn't the most spacious room but it was doable to get everything done at night and in the morning. There was a sliding bathroom door which was good.  

 

 

 

 

The bathroom had a decent roll in shower and the toilet was easy enough to get to.  However the fan in the bathroom was loud and had to be on when the light was on so I went in the dark.

 

 

There was a table/desk in the room that was nice and worked well for me as it was easy to get under.
