Holiday Inn Express & Suites Montrose - Black Canyon Area by IHG
We had an excellent stay. The breakfast was great with lots of hot food options. Jamie Lynn was just amazing and made sure we had the food we liked. Ryan in the front desk was so friendly and helpful with the weather. We will stay here again.

360 Views and Close to Everything! New build!
Everything at the home was wonderful! The extra fees after 2 people is annoying considering it’s a two bedroom home, has a kids area & says it accommodates 4…..Awesome host. Host refunded us the fee for one person since we have a 1yr old, which was nice but still kinda ridiculous to charge extra ...
