the room was really small the bed was a full sized bed not a queen as advertised liked the ground level access no stairs room was clean I would recommend liked the price point.
Good basic older updated motel, clean room, comfortable, microwave and refrigerator. Very busy night of stay so parking was tight but available, just not in front of room. Overall, good quality for the price. No breakfast, but that is typical for most Salida motels.
I really enjoyed my stay here. The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. The pool was a bonus, warm and relaxing, not cold like most hotel pools. It’s a not in the downtown area. I chose this hotel because it is a short walk to a coffee shop, a brewery, and the Hot Springs Aqua Center.

No frills old school motel. Bed was comfortable and the room suited my needs for a night.
This hotel is close to Salida downtown and to the hot springs and Buena Vista. The swimming pool is large for a hotel pool, and a very comfortable temperature.
