Great place

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
Joanne, 1-night trip

Trent, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Alondra, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The location was great, staff were very nice but the towels they had were probably the cheapest and thinest towels that I ever used.

Best Bang for the Buck

The gentleman that checked me in was very pleasant and accommodated my service dog. Not the newest place in town but very clean and I felt safe as a female solo traveler staying there. Great location and for the $ it is well worth it. Have a beautiful indoor pool but only open 3-10 so if you have kiddos that may be a negative. For me it was a perfect place along my travels.
Victoria, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to vacation. Everything about the motel was comfortable.
Michael, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

this was a lovely old fashioned motel with all the amenities. its only drawback was the weak internet which did not allow me to complete some needed work
Madeleine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

Great trip

Room was clean, staff helpful, but the beds need to be upgraded badly. I would have given perfect all the way around, but the beds took that away.
