It was a nice stay in this Inn. Compared to other lodges/motels this one has a nice personal touch, much better price-performance ratio than others even though it can get a bit busy during breakfast time.

10/10 Exceptional

Out of the ordinary, in a good way.

It is a fun place to stay with every room having a popular culture theme. The front desk employees I encountered were very nice and helpful and everything was clean. It is an older property, butI would definitely stay here again.

Funky little motel with thoughtfully quirky design touches. Great outdoor hangout space. A little worn out but clean and welcoming.

Hidden gem

This inn is great. It has a playground, game room, laundry facilities, the people are friendly and it's ten miles from Mesa Verde NP. The restaurant across the street and perhaps the town of Cortez closes at 9p. We enjoyed our stay. One downside is that you could hear others' showers running. Other than that, I would stay again.
Terri, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved everything about this motel. Completely updated, clean, and comfortable. Great price and I love parking right outside my room. Continental breakfast was awesome. Game room well furnished. Convenient to restaurants. We stayed a night after a visit to Mesa Verde. Highly recommend staying here.

Randall, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The place was surprisingly good for a motel. I usually never do a motel but the reviews and the retro theme sucked me in. Bwd was comfortable and shower was great. Breakfast was the standard boring breakfast and nothing to write home about. I would stay there again if i go to Cortez again
