Excellent service! Comfortable stay!!

We stayed here as part of a longer trip. The rooms were recently updated and the beds were comfortable. Best of all, the service was excellent! Anything we needed, they took care of quickly. Extra pillows, utensils, etc. I would definitely recommend staying here if stopping in Montrose!

Excellent room accommodations.

Room has had recent remodel. Had mini fridge, microwave, quiet AC, reliable WIFI, spotlessly cleaned. Parking lot area made for compact cars. Difficult to find daily park spot. Would give 5 stars, except for poor parking availability.
