Room was old, and some of the details were pretty janky. We were also pretty sure that a lot of the breakfast items had been out for quite a few days. If you’re looking for an inexpensive stay and have iron stomach this motel is for you.

This is a great property if you want a reasonably priced room close to downtown Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park. Property could definitely use a face lift. Excellent water pressure in the showers!
