Staff awesome. Room older but clean and property quiet at night. Close to Mesa Verda NP and Canyon of the Ancients. Room clean. Older property but could see that the bathroom had been renovated. No smoke detector in room and nothing other than a dead bolt on door but no worries....a chair under the door handle does the trick.

When I booked this place on Expedia I looked at the pictures well.It was somewhat clean.But the reason I picked this is the photos showed Roku Tv but it did not. So if this is important to you don’t stay here.

Good place to stay near Mesa Verde

Well located in Cortez, about a 30 minute drive from Mesa Verde National Park. Room was spacious and I was always able to park outside. WiFi worked well during my stay and check in and check out process was easy.
