Good place to stay near Mesa Verde

Well located in Cortez, about a 30 minute drive from Mesa Verde National Park. Room was spacious and I was always able to park outside. WiFi worked well during my stay and check in and check out process was easy.

Wish it could be better

The front desk was very helpful with everything! Location was ok but the bed was very uncomfortable. And we had someone try to open our door twice during our stay. Parking was difficult as the markings were very hard to see. However, the staff was fabulous, helping with all our concerns and needs. The hotel just needs some updating.

Bibek

Liked: Cleanliness
Rooms were big and reasonable for the price paid. Good location right off the downtown on the way to Durango. However, there were signs that coffee and some breakfast available in the lobby from 7 to 9, but went to check out at 7:30am, the staffs haven't even opened the door, i guess they were still sleeping (?). So decided to just drop off the key outside and left.

Booked my room, got there, real rundown stinks the smell is awful. The guy up front couldn’t get his computer to work so told me to just go down to econolodge. Like really? So, my family and I drove to the best western where we know it clean and worth the money! Boo on this hotel if you can even call it that

VERY disappointed

The check in staff was nice, but everything beyond that was disappointing. Not well maintained, very old, sketchy hotel. Bed was comfortable, a fair amount of space in room but low quality on everything else. Breakfast consisted of coffee, cheerios and white bread for toasting. Did not feel safe all night.

Didn't realize I rented a biohazard unit, there were doo doo stains on the sheets, blood stains on the ceiling, other oily stains on the other bed, gave the guy at the front counter a 50 dollar cash deposit he refused to refund within 3 minutes of checking in. We left.
