Would stay here again

This hotel was built during the Fred Harvey heyday and is on the historic register. So it has a lot of character. Rooms are nicely updated and very clean. If you're interested in the sandhill crane migration, this hotel is centrally located and close to the wildlife reserve. It is also close to restaurants and coffee shops.

Historical Gem but Tiny Rooms

The Monte Villa is historical with awesome antiques, and amazing looking bar (not operational), and the coolest 1930's elevator. But - the rooms are tiny and they never should place a king bed in a tiny room. We had no room to dress or undress or move around and we are very small people. The check in person was awesome and friendly but the rooms just are not okay for a return visit.

I like old hotels that have been remodeled, but the interior design of colors and textures in the halls was not done well. Breakfast was not good. Beds were very comfortable!

The uniqueness of the old hotel. Internet service was a bit hard to figure out - once I saw the passwords for each area posted by a light switch, then it was easy. Breakfast was good.

The owner was very nice. She showed me around to make sure i knew where to go. The walls in my room were so thin i could my neighbor breathe. The room was super small. The bathroom was tiny. No TV service. Breakfast was good(scrambled eggs) but options were exremely limited. It was a good price so I guess it was ok. I wouk Ld not stay again though since the walls were so thin

This is an old facility. We read that it was being remodeled but it wasn't. Two safety issues. Very strong odor of cleaning products. We could not open the window to air out the room because it was heated by a space heater that was vented to the outside via the window. There were hairs on the bedspread. The bathroom sink was so small, and under the protruding mirror, so that we couldn't even spit out our toothpaste without it dripping on the floor. The plaster on the walls was chipped in several places. We left a day early because we are two medical professionals who worried about the safety of the facility.

Fine

The hotel is entirely habitable, really, it's fine. The proprietors have worked really hard, you can tell. But if you need the cookie-cutter amenities of a chain hotel, head to Alamosa. This building is old. The rooms are small. The heating, TV and bathroom situations are not amazing. Breakfast is present, but not amazing. But, its a clean, safe stay in a really interesting historic building.

Historic Charm

This is our favorite close getaway. Makes us feel like we are on a mini vacation even though we are just 45 minutes away. We love the historic charm and the great hospitality by the husband and wife team. Love their breakfast goodies and beverages they provided directly to our room. We will always return. They feel like an extended part of our family - Many blessings
