Parking was easy and secure. The room was very clean. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. This is the most pet friendly hotel in the area. I travel with 3 dogs. Almost ALL hotels have a 1 or 2 pet limit, weight and breed restrictions, and charge a fee ($25 or more) for each pet per night. The fees at Budget Host are much more reasonable. This is my go to when I am staying in the area.

This place isn't bad considering, it's probably the lowest price in town. It's clean, but some things aren't up to date. If you're looking for a no frills easy to get too room, this is the place to go, perfectly friendly, pretty quiet.

Extremely clean room, new soft yet thick towels. The interior rooms are very quiet. Very friendly staff. No price gouging even right before the local annual bike race. Very affordable. I would definitely recommend this place. I love cats, I especially enjoy seeing cats playing around on the back parking lots. Apparently staff members are feeding the cats. It just warms your heart knowing that people care about these street cats.

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.

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.
