- Andy (10/5): - I couldn’t vouch for this place more, accidentally booked the wrong night and they were beyond accommodating. The facilities and the room were immaculate, I highly recommend to anyone considering.
- Jon (8/5): Better than expected, from other reviews - Hotel was dated but clean and comfortable. Price was great. Location was right off the freeway but quiet. Office hours didn't open until 7, so if you need an early start, remember office doesn't open to check out early.

- Aubra (10/5): No complaints and comfy bed my weekend was peaceful and I really enjoyed my time - Thank you for being affordable and enjoyable. Room 31 could use a full length mirror :-)
- Destry (10/5): -
- Cynthia (10/5): Loved it - Staff was amazing, very warm and welcoming, anticipated needs before we could ask, truly made you feel like they were happy you were there. Loved the setup and feel of the rooms, very clean and well taken care of. The location was perfect, within 10 mins of the shops, the Riverwalk, hiking trails, and lots of good food.
- AngelaM777 (8/5): - It's a really nice secluded place in the middle of a busy town. Easy access to the room and parking. Staff we very helpful. Room was just right with all connections easily available. Would recommend to experience.
- Brian (9/5): -

- Rick (7/5): Just a simple but adequate older motel. - Comfortable. Good location Also had a heated indoor pool and sauna which are nice features Was a little tricky figuring out the heat.
- Krueger (7/5): Convenient, easy, good value. - Quick friendly check-in. Easy location. Sauna didn't have instructions and I couldn't get it to work. Wasted time on it and was too frustrated to ask for help.
- Bill (8/5): -
- Amanda (6/5): Nice staff)clean rooms - Rooms comfy and bed Noisy neighbors
- Monica (10/5): - Spacious room Refrigerator didn’t work
- Adriana (7/5): - Comfy and clean room, had a microwave and small fridge. It’s exactly what we needed. Towels are very thin and small.
- Heather (9/5): -

The front desk manager was super kind and helpful. - The property was centrally located, the room was clean, and spacious. The front desk manager was super kind and helpful. The pool and sauna were an added bonus.
- kent (8/5): -
- theresa (5/5): Had a frig and microwave, great hot water, pool wasn’t used but looked disappointing - Quiet Very outdated
- Rebecca (8/5): - Grill, that the shower/toilet and sink were separate, blackout curtains. Nice staff. Easy parking. Room was too hot even heater on 55 degrees. Had to open window. Sauna needs to be hotter. Need to have a water filer station to get water. We were dying of thirst from the dry climate and snowboarding all day.,. And all we had was ice and sink water.
- Roberta (10/5): Great - Great location, great room, quite. just what I needed NA
- Michelle (8/5): It was good! - Breakfast wasn't available. But the staff was very kind. Floors were a little dirty. But not a major deal. Power went out for a minute or two. Lights kept flickering. Still nothing to really worry about.
- Michael (8/5): -
- Andrew (9/5): -
- Jordan (1/5): - I got bed bugs from this place! BED BUGS!!!
- Jim (5/5): -
- Greg (5/5): Ok place, if last minute for one night it's a good stay. - There was a vacancy at the last minute and the staff were very nice. The room was not clean. We are Airbnb hosts and understand how that can happen at times. Maybe this was not a typical situation. However, we found hair in the bathroom, in the shower, and toilet area. It was not a major issue for us, but worth noting. We also felt the rooms were paper-thin for noise.
- Michelle (8/5): As I have stayed here before, it's never a let down! There isn't one negative thing I can say about - Breakfast was not available. There wasn't anything I disliked or was unhappy about.
- Brieanna (10/5): -
- Rachelle (4/5): Good value but don’t expect much - Reasonable price for the area The cleaning scent is wayyyy too strong and I almost told them I couldn’t stay. It definitely gave me a headache. The shower curtains need to be weighted as the current ones don’t work whatsoever with the pressure they have going on. The microwave was dirty as was the sink with razor clippings.
- Brigitte (1/5): Disappointed - We did not stay at the facility. We wanted to look at our room to look at it before we checked in. The front desk person did not let us enter a room to inspect prior to our stay
- Amanda (7/5): - Neighbor was quiet Didnt have More pillows
- Michelle (10/5): -
- Larry (8/5): -

- Emmanuel (10/5): - Great flexibility for check I’m and fast late night check in
- Diego (7/5): Buen sitio de paso -
- Karlheinz (7/5): Gerne wieder - Zimmer sind sauber und geräumig. Zimmer sehr hellhörig.
- Brian (8/5): Nice value, quiet and good location - Good value, good location. Room was good size for the price. It is close to several restaurants and only about 15min walk to downtown and the river.
- Deanna (10/5): -
- Scott (5/5): - Room smelled like urine and disenfectant
- Paul (8/5): -
- Yong (8/5): - I did like the sauna. There was no telephone in the room.
- Mary (9/5): This is a clean motel with great location. The decor is old but the bed is comfortable and the room is clean. Easy in - Location Nothing really
- Paula (10/5): Good accommodations and priced well - This is an old motel, but it's meticulously maintained, everything works well, and the bed was excellent. They even provided a clip to keep the drapes shut so that light didn't get in from outside! The people are nice too. The location is easy to find, and, while it's a little too far to walk to the downtown area, it's close to a mini-market, a park, and a coffee shop. I would stay there again, and I'd recommend it to others. I didn't use the pool or the spa, but I wish the hot tub had been working. (On the other hand, the city hot springs pool is half a block away!)
- Allan (6/5): -
- Rebecca (10/5): - Very clean room. Comfortable. Affordable price. Close to F street.
- Kenneth (9/5): Friendly staff, clean room. No complaints. Would recommend - No Breakfast
- Connie (10/5): - The rooms are very clean, and the hotel staff are friendly and accommodating.
- Diane (10/5): -
- Kathleen (10/5): - I am a senior lady traveling alone and felt very safe. The area was well lighted at night. The room (king) was quaint and more than satisfactory.
The best part was the bed (and even the pillows). Not sure the brand ( I tried to find out :>). I slept so well - I have back issues and this was the best I've slept in months.
I walked into downtown (Salida) every morning... 1.7 miles (downhill :>) I would definitely stay here again. It is right on Rainbow (the hwy) but it is a 'motor hotel' -
Wonderful Mexican Restaurant right across the street, and the other way was fabulous Brewery/Pub.
- Julie (6/5): - You get what you pay for. Quality lodging is pretty expensive on the weekends in this mountain town. Unfortunately I have to come here 1-2 times a year for a state volunteer meeting of an organization I belong to.
It’s atypical old, highway fronted motel with stained sinks & bathtubs (jetted). The towels were stained & thin. One bright spot was the floors were new. Carpet in one room & vinyl tile in the other. The AC worked pretty well & the indoor pool was very warm, but stained & old. Our key cards didn’t work each morning so we had to constantly have them reprogrammed.
- Oliver (9/5): - Large roomy room, large bath area, comfortable beds, heated pool and nice sauna We were in front area of hotel, street noise was bad. No breakfast, which we knew before we arrived.
- Steve (9/5): Comfortable stay with a good sized practical bathroom - Bathroom well equipped with a good shower.
Plenty of electrical points to use in the main room made a great change.
Comfortable bed Room walls were painted dark green making the room feel dark in normal daylight.
- Andy (10/5): - C
- Larsson (8/5): - Convenient and priced right, beautiful surrounding area
- Arthur (10/5): - Clean room great staff great location
- Daniel (8/5): - Great size room. Property is dated but very clean. Staff friendly and helpful.
- John (6/5): - Thought the parking area was too tight.
- Kerry (10/5): - Very clean spacious room, the grounds were immaculate, reasonable priced. We don't have one complaint, definitely going to stay there again.
- Malinda (10/5): - I booked about 9:00 pm at night (obviously last minute). It was reasonably priced, super convenient, very clean, the manager was really nice and loved that I could just drive up and park outside of the room. They did have some construction going on the next morning by the front office.
- Donna (6/5): - Only air conditioner in room was in the bathroom so the door needed to stay open and only crossed our faces in bed.
- Steven (10/5): - The room was spotless when we arrived. Had a convenient mini-fridge! Plenty of towels. Did not hear any noise from our neighbors!
Affordable, we would definitely stay again here on another visit to Salida🙂
- Connie (10/5): - Clean room, nice staff. I definitely would stay there again if ever in the area.
- daniel (8/5): - Very nice place!!!
Clean, friendly quiet place!
- Michael (6/5): Decent enough place - Convenience, location and the pool area Noise from adjacent room. Thin walls
- Keith (2/5): - I made and paid for a reservation online. When I arrived the owner/desk clerk did not like me and canceled my reservation and said he could do that.
- Joanne (6/5): Salida Motel - Check in experience was a hoot, abrupt and sharp but I found it funny. The room was basic but fine for an overnight stay but no longer than that. Great pub next door for food and drinks and Salida is a nice town to visit
- Mary (9/5): -
- lenora (6/5): - The property is really old but clean.
- Doug (10/5): - Laundry, towels, wash cloths were all old and well worn. Room was clean. Pool was clean and in good condition, for an older pool. Check-in was easy and quick. The stay was fine with no issues.
- Stephanie (9/5): -
- Barb (8/5): - Staff was very friendly. Cute place, a little old but clean, would stay again
