Amazing hospitality, absolutely the best Lodging
Mason, 3-night trip

Second year to stay here. Good location, comfy beds. Centrally located to mountains, river rafting and restaurants.

Great place
Calista, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It was a nice place and a great location! The room was pretty large, and the tub was big enough for two.
Karen, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I really enjoyed my stay here. The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. The pool was a bonus, warm and relaxing, not cold like most hotel pools. It’s a not in the downtown area. I chose this hotel because it is a short walk to a coffee shop, a brewery, and the Hot Springs Aqua Center.
Lynette, 1-night trip

Nice facilities. Friendly staff.
Stella, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

No frills old school motel. Bed was comfortable and the room suited my needs for a night.
David, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Clean room, quiet. No continental breakfast service. Older motel but it has been kept up pretty well.
Gary, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

The location was great, staff were very nice but the towels they had were probably the cheapest and thinest towels that I ever used.
THOMAS, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

For a low price motel it was fine
Robert, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Not anything fancy, but clean & comfy!!
Jessica, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Cute and quiet and cozy place, felt like a little like staying in a family members cabin. Cable had lots of good tv channel options, bathroom shower head was great in my opinion, perfect water pressure and temp, and there was an awesome Mexican restaurant right across the street.
Alondra, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This hotel is close to Salida downtown and to the hot springs and Buena Vista. The swimming pool is large for a hotel pool, and a very comfortable temperature.
Joyann, 2-night trip

Leonardo, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

This was the least expensive hotel I could find that had vacancies. I was so surprised with how clean it was how friendly the staff was and when I came back to my room, the next day I had had made service. I was not expecting that I would stay here again. It’s very basic but has a great indoor pool and sauna that I didn’t get to use. I was able to put all my food in the refrigerator and pack my lunches. I recommend this hotel if you’re not looking for luxury, but want something inexpensive and clean.
Laura, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very accommodating and friendly staff, loved my room and the giant bathtub!
Erica, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

This property has potential in a great lauch point for the mountains. It would be helpful to add a coffee bar and a place to gather. It was very stoic and rule oriented. I think I was told No Pets and NO Breakfast three times in the first five minutes I was there. The AC unit in my room was not sufficient to cool the room and I had two large beds for one person. I booked a single bed.
Kraig, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Stayed 2 nights to ski at Monarch, they cleaned and kept it comfortable! I'll definitely revisit.
