Ute Motel

We pulled into the parking lot and did not feel safe to even get out of the vehicle. The photo on this site is completely misrepresentative of the property. This was obviously used for mid to long term housing as the balconies were crowded with personal property and interior furniture (office chairs and loveseat) being used as patio furniture. Several people milling around their obvious residence. Disabled vehicle in the lot with smashed out window, missing mirror and antenna. Old appliances on parking lot, cleaning supplies and equipment in the yard, etc. we attempted to call as we left with no answer. We are outside of our refund window but believe we are owed a refund based upon misrepresentation. We found alternate lodging.

Pros: quiet, small, clean and super close to attractions; reasonably priced Cons: in an area I didn't always feel safe, old and in need of updating

If you are looking for a place that has uniform lightbulbs in the bathroom fixtures, or real carpet instead of carpet squares, this motel isn't for you. BUT, if you are looking for a quiet, clean place to sleep, this is the perfect option. Don't judge the book by its cover. From the outside, it looks a little sketchy. But inside, it's exactly what you've paid for. There is a flat screen TV, a bigger than average fridge, clean linens, excellent A/C and lots of high-pressure hot water in the shower. This is a small, family-owned motel that is less than 15 mins away from Garden of the Gods, Seven Falls, Cave of the Winds, the US Olympic Museum and the Manitou Cliff Dwellings. Pike's Peak and other attractions are less than 30 mins away. It may not be the most luxurious place to stay, but for the price and its proximity to attractions, you can't beat it.

Enjoying my stay a little outdated but a good place to stay

Nice attendant. Clean room. We had booked a room with one queen, but they gave us a room with 2 queen beds! That was unexpected, but great! Easy to check in/out. Park close to your room.

Overall very good. A few minor issues.

Nice, quaint and comfy. Friendly, honest owner. Refreshing surprise of a find. Owner refunded $20! Simply stated he knew how expensive things are🙂

Dated but very clean. Owner is very helpful and accomodating and made our stay wonderful

Spacious room, full sized refrigerator, table and 2 dressers, not fancy but all the basics. Near I-25, but no traffic noise.
