They had just took over ownership and the whole town just went through a flood yet they were friendly and even with us having our 2 dogs with us (which is the hardest part of our trips) was a quick but decent stay.

The room served it's purpose. It was clean and comfortable. I needed an inexpensive room for one night near the festival I was attending.
Our second stay in 6 weeks. An exceptionally good value. Basic accomodations but very clean . I am walker dependent had a shower chair for safety. The manager exceptionally nice and available. Dog friendly. As a plus fret roam the srea around the motel in this charming mountain town. An exceptional value. No breakfast but Portillos Cafe in town was a great place to enjoy New Mexican breakfast. A good stopping point.

The room was clean. The staff were very friendly. The outside needs alot of clean up. The outside makes it seem like a bad choice. However, the inside of the rooms were nice.
I had a very wonderful stay here. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. I was worried I would arrive to check in too late. Thankfully, even though it was very late at night, I was still helped and welcomed warmly. There is also a cute outside area with some seating which was nice to relax in. I would definitely stay here again!

The room I got fit my needs perfectly as a solo traveler and staff were very nice at this location in Raton, New Mexico. The room was large enough to feel comfortable with a microwave, refrigerator and bathtub. The only issue I had was the Wi-Fi connectivity that was about 20% reliable and I did not have cell service so it limited all of my phone and iPad usage. I stayed across the street from the office, which is probably why, and they may consider moving the router or adding one to that side of the property since cell service is little to none. Other than that, it was a very pleasant day at a very reasonable price.
The room smelled like urine and one of the beds was covered with dog hair.

The property is an older motel and a bit run down but the beds were comfortable and cable TV worked. It was quiet and AC worked well. We got a good night’s sleep and shower for an early departure.
The staff was extremely friendly, the place was not clean carpet was stained and torn the TV absolutely sucked no local channels no news no ESPN or any other decent channels the grounds were filthy look like it hadn't been mowed in weeks I would not recommend this place to anybody
I did not stay. There is a reason there are no exterior photo graphs of this property. I drove by but did not stop due to the disrepair or the building exterior. I will attempt to secure a refund. I stayed in a hotel down the road two miles despite the fact I may be out the $84.
We arrived very late at midnight. Able to get keys but when we entered the room, it was full of stinky smell, bed was dirty with lots of spots , chairs were dirty , towels were dirty , window blinds was broken. Another room was full of smoking smell , can’t able to stay for long , had to leave in midnight to find the better place.
