"Budget" some smile?

Reviewed By April T

It's a budget motel so I didn't expect much. Just a clean place to rest my tired body. And the Super 8 at Buena Vista was more or less on that target. But boy, the staff act like they didn't want to be there! Or wish I didn't stay there!? I understand every business is short staffed. I didn't ask for anything out of the ordinary. Just check-in, get my key and be on my own. The staff looked so reluctant it made me feel like I woke them up in the middle of the night on their day off! Anyway, I got my key and disappeared till the next morning, when the hot food container was empty and no one was around except guests waiting for the food container to be refilled. I had to walk all over the building until I found someone who could then found the right person to replenish the breakfast items. Last, the walls were paper thin. I mean PAPER THIN. I didn't just hear people next door talking, I can hear people talking like 3 doors away (and they weren't shouting, just conversation level). Fortunately, there weren't too many guests there so the noise wasn't too much of an issue. Would I stay there again? Not my first choice. But if in a pinch, I'd probably stay again.

Gateway Inn & Suites

Recently Renovated! Relax In the Luxury Of Our Modern-Contemporary Rooms. Experience Uptown Boutique Decor In Mountain Setting

Nice and clean, economical.

Reviewed By dkarmenta

The room was remodeled. The mattress was not as comfortable as I would have liked. A great amount of pillows. They could use a new brand of coffee for the in room coffee maker. Very weak, and I used less water. Very good, free breakfast options. Waffles, yogurt, boiled eggs, very good pre-packaged pastries, fresh fruit, coffee and hot chocolate. I do not recommend the Mexican restaurant next door. I got 800 miles on my Alaska Airlines card for one night!

Reviewed By darwinmoore

This motel is a tremendous value at its price point. I got a large room with a comfy king bed, large bathroom, large TV with lots of cable channels and HBO and got to park right in front of my door. The room is decorated a little better than the dormitory norm, and there’s a novel ice bucket and second sink outside the bathroom. Above all, it was quite clean I would stay again in a heartbeat.

American Classic Inn

Far from your cookie-cutter corporate chain, the AMERICAN CLASSIC INN is family owned and operated. And here at ACI, we do things a little differently. The motor inn was purchased in May of 2018, in an almost dilapidated state. After extensive renovations, we have transformed the run-down roadside motel of then into the picturesque gem that you will stumble upon now. Our current owners have been endlessly working to convert this quirky spot into a top-notch hospitality experience with character of its own. We have expansive experience and education in hospitality, and we guarantee that our facility operates at the highest quality standards in the industry. We are always working towards keeping our accommodations up-to-date and innovative. We have re-designed the typical motel room from a stuffy and cold environment to an area that will keep you coming back for more! Friendly service, unique amenities, and a one-of-a-kind location in the heart of the Colorado Rockies make AMERICAN CLASSIC INN a must see for every American road trip!

Always excellent!
