It’s an old motor in that’s been redone. So the rooms are small. I was only there to sleep after long flights home from Vietnam. Main reason I stayed there was my favorite quick Mexi fix was access the street. Taco’s Today. Their Berria’s taco’s are off the chart.

The motel was fine for the amount we paid. Clean although it seemed that we were in a smoking room because I could smell smoke likely from a previous patron. I loved the little dog greeter at the main office!

It was a simple motel room, but the bed was comfortable and it was right in Montrose. We would have loved to have a small coffee maker so we could have made our own coffee when we woke up.

The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We were right next to a busy street so I was worried about noise but didn’t hear any traffic noise at all. Unfortunately in the winter months the office doesn’t open until 8 am so we went elsewhere for coffee and breakfast.
