This place was great for the affordable price. The manager at the front desk was very kind and friendly. The complimentary breakfast they serve is very good. Our room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The only downsides were that the bathroom door did not close all the way and the bed was quite creaky. Other than that, we had an excellent 1 night stay.

Clean and Comfortable Motel

This motel is in an excellent location for the main street and visiting the Great Sand Dunes. The room was a fair size and clean, the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast voucher for the cafe next door is an excellent addition and they catered for my husband's dietary needs.

Such a cute decorated room while retaining original structure- brick walls and wood beams. Bathroom was clean, air-conditioning worked well, towels were rough, exterior entrance with stairs only which was difficult with a heavy suitcase, coupon for breakfast at the cafe next door was nice- choices and service was great - it was a nice change for traveling breakfast.

Second time we've stopped here. Each time it has been clean, reasonably priced, and comfortable. It's not fancy but perfect for a good night's sleep and delicious breakfast. We also appreciated the friendliness of the desk clerk.

Nice cozy room, decent pillows. Not convinced the bed was queen size. Check in lady was awesome, came right up to our room to reset the tv. Everything was very clean. Restaurants of all kinds were within walking distance. Breakfast coupon for the attached restaurant, food was made to order and very good. Would stay again.
