Cute and quiet and cozy place, felt like a little like staying in a family members cabin. Cable had lots of good tv channel options, bathroom shower head was great in my opinion, perfect water pressure and temp, and there was an awesome Mexican restaurant right across the street.

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.

This was the least expensive hotel I could find that had vacancies. I was so surprised with how clean it was how friendly the staff was and when I came back to my room, the next day I had had made service. I was not expecting that I would stay here again. It’s very basic but has a great indoor pool and sauna that I didn’t get to use. I was able to put all my food in the refrigerator and pack my lunches. I recommend this hotel if you’re not looking for luxury, but want something inexpensive and clean.

This isn't a bad place. But it's kind of noisy and always has construction going on. The room is good but the motel doesn't look that good because of that. I'll stay there again.
