Great little inn

We loved our stay. The property is just as described. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was good. We visited Mesa Verde National Park and Arches National Park while staying at the Retro Inn. Staff gave us good suggestions. Visit the CO Welcome Center if you can. Full of good suggestions and maps.

This is a very economical yet cozy inn. Diamond in a rough, i would call it. High value. It can use some improvement but, it has was consistently clean, quite and had a good breakfast selection l. My goto when traveling towards Texas from the northwest. Biggest complaint is that certain rooms has suboptimal parking spots. Not good if you have a large maintenance truck. However, if you talk with the receptionist they can advise to park in a better spot for larger vehicles.
