Check in was great! She did a wonderful job. So the exterior is old and a little scary. We had reserved a fireplace room. The fireplace did not work. We were told it did not matter, it was to hot outside. The WiFi and cable did not work. And both pools were empty. Not at all what we booked. We were told by the front desk to move if we didn’t like it. We did move the next morning to a new location. Disappointed to say the least.

Extremely disappointed that the pools were not avaialable as we booked two nights to chill on our long distance road trip and our grandson was looking forward to using the pool....they explained that due to the pool employees not doing their job they had to be emptied and worked on ....this was not a recent thing by the look of it and was disappointed that expedia were not informed so that we could have had the chsnce tobook elsewhere with a pool...Also on looking on the website it was still advertised as pools avaialable on the day we checked in

Hotel was fine for our needs for visiting Mesa Verde NP. Although we’d booked this property about 5 months before we arrived, on check in we were informed that the one we’d booked wasn’t available so they put us into another room. The one we were put in was possibly better than the one we’d originally booked fortunately but couldn’t understand why we hadn’t got what we’d booked anyway seeing as it was so far in advance. The girl on the front desk didn’t seem like she could be bothered anyway to give much of an explanation. Plenty of free parking. The free breakfast the next morning was good enough to give a good start to the day as well.

Do not recommend

This hotel is clearly going down hill. The pools are not open and does not look like they will ever be. The hotel is run down especially the outside and courtyard area. It is also a motel which feels unsafe in a not great neighborhood.

Don’t do it

Would never make this mistake again. Had two nights booked, moved elsewhere for the second night knowing I would never be refunded. Unsafe. Dirty. Shabby. Loud. Left at 5 am after doors slammed around me all night, people passed out on the grass outside the lobby.

The pool and spa were being rehabilitated and not available. If we knew we would’ve booked elsewhere. Signs of wear/tear - cracked sink, scratched floors, squeaky shower, brown lawn, featured fountain not working. Service was helpful and breakfast was good.

Property thumbs down; manager thumbs up

When we arrived, we learned that the pool (featured in the Hotels.com description) was closed due to an ongoing maintenance problem. We went to our room and discovered the floors had not been vacuumed and the bedding was not fresh--pubic hairs on the sheets. A large mirror was cracked in several places--a safety hazard. We complained to the manager and she admitted that there were serious issues with housekeeping. She offered a full refund if we wanted to find other lodging. By this time it was late and we didn't expect we'd be able to find anything. She, however, went above and beyond and called the manager at a competitor hotel to see if she could accommodate us. We were not expecting that! The property gets a rating of 1; the manager deserves a 10+ and a better facility to manage.
