We had already driven 13 hours when we started looking for a cheaper hotel. Initially we looked in Raton, but the poor reviews about cleanliness, etc, for the budget hotels in that area made us decide to drive the extra half hour to get to this hotel. We were not disappointed! The hotel was immaculate and well-kept, though older. The sheets and towels were newer, and the beds comfortable. Check-in was so easy, and the view in the morning (we had a mountain view room) was grand. Be aware that there is no breakfast, and the rooms are on the smaller side. I would definitely stay here again.

It’s an older property but that ends up being part of its charm. The view is gorgeous and it’s close to town. The room is very clean and has everything we need. Staff is friendly. Will definitely stay here again.

The room was very dated. It met my needs for the night. It was a bit confusing to find only because of the GPS and round abouts. I’d definitely stay a night again if just passing through beyond that I wouldn’t.

You have to pay a fee to park your car here after you already pay 160 a night. The tv is garbage it turns on and off at will. The one nice feature is the bed. I’ve had better stays at a motel 6 for less than half the price.

I like a hotel that doesn’t bother you everyday for cleaning but no service whatsoever isn’t preferred.
