Clean comfortable & rustic

Clean, comfortable, tidy & rustic. Felt like I was stepping back to a simpler time. It is an older hotel with few updates but Joy & Ty made the stay! They were amazing friendly and ensured we had pleasant accommodations. I will stay here again.

Budget Stay Here!

The outside of this Motel looks a little run down. But it’s old. It’s been here a long time! It’s family owned and operated. Very friendly & fast check in. My room was big and super clean. The bed was super comfy and the water pressure in the shower great! Nice fluffy towels, a mini fridge, microwave, sitting area, dresser, closet, and I like having the sink outside of shower area. It was quiet and by fast food, restaurants, gas stations, & Safeway. Only 14min drive to Mesa Verde NP!!

Room was spacious and clean and quiet. Conveniently located. Not a cookie cutter corporate motel. The change was nice. Owner personally took care of me and was friendly and professional. I loved my stay there. I’d definitely stay there again.

Best deal in town

I use Hotels dot com a lot to book rooms. I read the reviews, look at pictures, make a decision. The Sleeping Ute Mountain Motel in Cortez was exactly what I expected after doing such a review through the app. It’s not a fancy hotel, but it’s clean. We were traveling with two kids to visit the National Park. We needed a cheap place to stay for the night. This room had everything we needed and at a good price. I’m not sure what year this property was built, but it’s built solid so there’s no road noise or noise from adjoining rooms. The air conditioner was ice cold and the shower was nice and hot. There’s quite a few hotels in Cortez, but this motel had the best price and I was able to get a good nights sleep and visit the National Park early the following day. And to the owners, thanks for the hospitality.

Great place to stay

This is an older motel that has been brought up to date by young couple doing a fantastic job in running their motel. Bikers are welcome and you can park right outside of your room. I highly recommend this motel
