Making Business A Little Fun

A true Motor-Inn. The rooms are decorated in 60's fashion of Atomic era which is appropriate considering Monticello's history of uranium mining/milling. The AC worked great on hot days after working in dirt. Always had fresh towels each day and the shower contained a handheld - more places need to do this! The pillows were a little flat but the bed was so comfy which was important after working lifting rocks. And everything was very very clean!!! Visited the coffee shop and the latte was heavenly

Make sure you ask for a room at the back. My room was near the road and there was some traffic early that woke me. Great little motel with a cool 50's vibe. Inexpensive and clean.

Adorable, very clean, great price!

Super cute roadside motel! We needed a place to stay to break up a long roadtrip and I found this one in my search. The beds were comfortable and the room was very clean! I am extremely picky about where I stay and went off of the Hotels.com reviews from other travelers. Did not disappoint, wish we could have stayed longer than just an evening to sleep. My daughter thought it was so cool the room actually had real hotel keys! :)
