It was a nice stay in this Inn. Compared to other lodges/motels this one has a nice personal touch, much better price-performance ratio than others even though it can get a bit busy during breakfast time.

The place was surprisingly good for a motel. I usually never do a motel but the reviews and the retro theme sucked me in. Bwd was comfortable and shower was great. Breakfast was the standard boring breakfast and nothing to write home about. I would stay there again if i go to Cortez again

I love how quiet this place is. The common area between the rooms looks like a quaint neighborhood. The room reminded me of favorite hotels I stayed in as a kid. Easy to find right by the main road, with lots of amenities and things to do, this place is an excellent value. Do not pass this up!
