Wonderful staff, plenty of parking, clean rooms, pet friendly, and a wonderful location.
The location is perfect, staff was extremely accommodating and courteous, and the grounds were clean. Overall, this place gives you that perfect feel of home and vacation, all at the same time. I highly recommend this location.
Everything’s just right!!! And a wonderfully caring staff!!

JOY, who received our reservation was wonderful. She really worked hard to get our room ready and even called to see when we would be arriving. This is an old property that is family owned, they really appreciated our business.
Everything worked as expected during our short visit.
Great place to stay while doing fossil hunting at the local private quarries. Amazing area!

Clean bed but this hotel hasn’t been updated sense the 60s. No ash trays but still somehow felt like a smoking room. Retro without the retro fit.Staff was nice. Found it hard to relax.
Nice place to stay. It’s a bit dated but it’s very comfortable. Great value for the money and most of all the water is hot and the HVAC works great and is very quiet.
Overall we had a great experience here. They went above and beyond to accommodate us as we arrived late. This made a huge difference to us as we had driven from Dallas that day and were very tired. The rooms were very cozy and clean. They were kind and accommodating of our cats as well. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in Cortez. Thanks again!
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
An awesome place to stay. The place is a little dated but don’t judge the book by its cover. I would rather give up the amenities of the chain hotels for this establishment. Water is nice and hot. AC and heater is quiet and works excellent.
