Consejos para la ciudad
Facilidad para moverse por la casa
No need to drive! Use the electric scooters and bikes
Just a block to the North, in front of Shuga’s restaurant, you will find the “Lime” electric scooters. Just download the app and go! Drop off points are all over the city; so you can park, do your thing, and then grab another one! You can ride these all the way to the base of Pikes Peak, in Manitou Springs! Electric bikes are available as well.
