Comfortable, clean, and newly renovated

We were in Estes for a family reunion so we basically needed a place to sleep because we’d be busy during the day. The motel was super clean and had been recently completely renovated. I learned from the hostess at the front desk that the owners had basically gutted the entire motel and started over. The bed was comfy, the coffee in the Kcup machine was good, the water was hot, the shower was great and was nice and tall, the towels and sheets were good quality, I appreciated the liquid hand soap, lotion, shampoo and conditioner that was available, the room had a fridge and microwave, I was happy to see the hair dryer and Kleenexes, and there was a wardrobe with an extra blanket and hangers along with a drawer. You could tell they had thought of all of the basic comforts a traveler would need—and this was just a plain, single room. The decor was a blend of minimalist modern and classic and not the kitsch mountain decor that’s often overwhelming in some places. Some of their other rooms offer even more amenities like a fireplace. The lobby had a water dispenser with hot and cold water that we utilized every day. They don’t have offer breakfast but Estes had a ton of food choices (including coffee shops, a crepe place, and a bagel store). Best of all, the check-in experience was simple even though we came into town late and the office had closed. And, when we had a chance to interact with the hostess, she was warm and friendly and a pleasure to get to know.

Clean and comfortable

I travel for a living so my top two things for hotels are cleanliness and comfort - I don’t care so much about amenities because I’m not in my room that much. This place did a great job with both! The place is so clean; absolutely spotless and shiny! The mattress wasn’t as comfortable as home, but it wasn’t bad and I understand it’s hard to get perfection for everyone’s desired mattress firmness. I had a choice of 2 pillow firmness and one was perfect. Overall, a VERY restful sleep! Super quiet her as well (we are here in the fall, a slower time). Overall, one of the nicest motels I’ve been in without a doubt.

Comfortable rustic stay near RMNP entrance

Comfortable rustic inn with lovely mountain views. The rooms are thoughtfully designed and decorated. The owner/manager welcoming and warm without being intrusive. Exceptionally clean. The bed is very comfortable. It's an area where we wanted to be out and about so didn't need a lot of services. It was perfect for us.
