Good stay for the price. Warm breakfast at the accompanying restaurant was above expectations! A few issues: bathroom door didn't shut the whole way, bathroom could've been cleaner (corners etc), towels were super scratchy and we only got one thin, flat pillow each.

Cool old school motel (even still used a key). Only issue was no tv but it was a cable company problem. It was late and time to sleep so we didn’t care.

Had a really good experience. While the room was dated in terms of the finishes and furniture, avaerthung was in good contisoon and functional. Very little staff intergace but they were welcoming and friendly. The breakfast was a nice touch, to get something fresh made vs a buffet. Easily walkabe to the stores and restruants on Main street. Location was well lit and seemed quite safe.

This is perhaps the most up-to-date motel I've ever stayed in. And the café next door that handles the free breakfast is a delicious touch.

Hidden Gem

Skip the big name hotels next time you are in Alamosa. This hotel is older, but has been updated, is extremely clean, and well maintained. The entire staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The brick walls in the room were a huge hidden bonus to help prevent unwanted noise from any neighbors. 10/10!
