We stayed here one night, after visiting the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. The room was clean and nice, but the air conditioner was a bit loud. The woman at the front desk was very helpful, and recommended a BBQ place for dinner (Jimmers,) that had great food. We appreciated the complimentary snack bars and water bottles for the next day's drive.

The room is not spacious but I don’t consider that a negative. The room, and bathroom, were clean. The bed was good also. (We should have requested a couple of additional pillows, but didn’t) I had a problem with the key card on check-in but the young lady at the desk quickly fixed the problem and verified the re-coded card worked. We appreciated the grab-n-go area in the lobby when we got ready to leave - it was quick and easy.

This was a good place to crash for a couple of nights that didn't break the bank. The grab & go breakfast was a nice touch. The rooms have been recently redone, which was great. The bed was pretty comfortable. The bathroom was nice and the shower got hot and had great water pressure. Appreciated the mini fridge and microwave. Location was decent; near things but a little bit on the outskirts of town. I would stay here again. However, I do have one complaint, and other reviews have commented on this as well- but the the floors were extremely dirty. That was really the only issue of the whole stay, but the floors really did seem gross. If this establishment could make sure to clean the floors well in between guests, that would go a really long ways.

If you plan to stay here, ask for a room number in the teens which are farthest from noisy street. Also no sound proofing between the rooms. Check in at 5:20 pm was easy with SMS text instructions, but even in the day I never found any staff, only a sign they were away. I saw cleaners but they never came to my room...maybe just clean and replace towels efc after check out. The TV is a Fire TV system with apparently inadequate bandwidth or speed as there was lots of buffering and occasionally dropped the signal so you had to start over. Very clean when I arrived and convenient to the National Park.

TV didn't work great cuz the Internet signal wasn't very strong. AC is in a small area and has a hard time cooling the rest of the room. Good little place to stay.
