Excellent overnight for the nearby Scenic Railroad
While this is an older facility, the room was clean, the bed was very comfortable and lastly it is a park at the door motel. No long hallways. The facility is very near the Cumbres & Toltec Railway station and it is convenient to restaurants in Antonito. Nice owners.

Even though the property is quite old, the owners do all they can to make staying there pleasant. The room was very clean with the necessities well provided. They make the most of what is possible.

This is possibly the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. It was dirty. When we tried to close the curtains, the rod fell off the wall onto the floor. Windows are filthy. An awful experience.
Avoid this place!

Proximity to train is great
This motel is trying to come back from being closed due to Covid and previous owners extremely poor management and care of the facility.
Rooms need a lot of work but were clean and the proximity to the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad (our intent) made it an easy walk (even with a toddler).
The manager (new owner) was pleasant and you could tell she is chagrined that the place needs so much TLC to bring it to full usefulness.
Though in need of some work, the place was clean. We would stay there again.

If your just looking for a place to sleep this will do the job. It's an older motel with no thrills, that needs updating. Check in went great, the bed was comfortable and the water pressure was awesome.My only real concern was that the door needed a deadbolt or just a better lock on it. I would stay here again.

Not very comfy
The room was huge, empty, and poorly decorated. Was not comfy. The heating system is really loud and kept me awake.
This hotel is in need of some serious updates.

Total disaster... The motel was built in the '50s and the original air conditioner is still there. The heater did not work. The front door handle was loose. The TV had 15 channels and 4 were duplicate and 5 had static. Attempted to tighten the cable cord on the back but the threads were stripped. You have to hold the handle down on the toilet until it flushed. I would like to request a full refund to make a point that the owners are over charging for nothing more than a tent with roof. Ice machine was also broken.

Property is close to the Scenic Railroad if you want to walk. Otherwise you can stay in a nearby town, Alamosa. Bigger town and nicer accommodations. The hotel is outdated. The hotel staff is very friendly and accommodating.
