Anniversary Hiking Trip

Anniversary Hiking trip. This was our first stop on our trip. The Minecraft had a wonderfully comfortable bed and was very clean and quiet. It fit the bill for what we needed. Loved the fire pit out front. We would definitely stay again.

Comfortable room

Nicely remodeled small motel room.very comfortable bed. We were concerned about street noise being in the room next to main st, but once we closed the window it was quiet and we slept well. Tiny bathroom sink but it worked. Only complaint , table in room had to be wiped down before we could play cards. It hadnt been wiped off in a while. Great value for the money.

Comfort without breaking the bank

The gentleman who checked me in was very nice and allowed me to check in early as I was preparing for a wedding. The room was spotless and nicely appointed. Comfortable bed and great TV choices. I would definitely stay here again.

Tiny room with Microwave and fridge is clean! Parking is easy. The bad is comfortable. It's quiet. There is NO breakfast. You can grab some bars
Liping, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.

Good place to stay

Overall this is a good place to stay. Check in is odd, you have to call the desk person to check in but he is prompt to come to the desk. One thing that I did not like was I had booked "pay at the property" and they went ahead and charged my card over a month before my stay, not cool. Note that the TVs are streaming only. No local channels. There is some free programs on the FireTV. If you want anything different you'll have to use your sign-in on the apps. I watched shows on my tablet instead of signing into their TV. The bed was comfy and the room very clean. If I had one complaint it is that the bleach smell was overwhelming when I opened the door.
Monica, 1-night trip

No Breakfast

Room was clean but small with no table to work from. Traffic noise being right on Main Street. They Advertise breakfast. But only breakfast was coffee and a few breakfast different bars. Not what I would call breakfast by any means.
Bob, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Classic motel virtues, especially easy unload from car. Welcoming vibe. Breakfast is cheese (in plastic), yogurt, juice, power bars, etc.
Paul, 2-night trip

Happy with the stay

This was a great choice for place to stay. Very clean, beds were comfortable. No complaints. Service was good. Very fair priced. Would recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

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.

Beds were very comfortable. Traffic noise was a drawback, but for the most part... Very nice, and renovations were a plus.
