The room was very musty and when we checked the ac filter had mold growing in it! We went to desk and they had basically no cleaning products available. My daughter has bad allergies and this was a big issue for us.

We needed a comfortable and reasonably priced option for a single night's lodging and BW Kokopelli met our criteria. The hot breakfast was very good and staff were friendly and courteous.

I booked this property for the pool. The photo that represents this hotel is even just a pic of their pool. When we arrived, the pool was closed, covered, and dirty. It appeared to have not been opened for the season. There are cheaper options locally that would likely be just as good if not better than this option. They should state if the pool is closed or if they no longer offer that.
