Tv wasnt working, shower handle had problems getting hot water dialed in, toilet handle fell off. Place needs updating but the staff was very friendly and helped when needed.
This hotel chain has always been one of our favorites. The room is very clean, bed is very comfy, bathroom is super clean! The front desk staff is friendly. They have a bathtub-shower combo which is our first priority to look for in a hotel. They even provide dental kit and other personal items upon request. And they have room service too.
Nice, clean, friendly for a one night stay near Mesa Verde

Floors are poorly constructed. Walking on bedroom floor creates squeaky noises. We could hear the people above us very early on the morning as they walked about their room. Our room floor squeaked as well.

Dated property, needs a renovation! Quiet and close to park. Breakfast was good!
Had a fun Western decor. Property is in a small town and in need of updates. But there is not much soundproofing in the walls and ceiling so that would be hard to fix.
