I must have looked online at least 2 hours trying to find a place to stay near Manitou and came across this gem! Very clean, the owners are so nice and gave us lots of ideas on where to eat and go for fun. We will stay here again.

Great hotel 2 miles from town center of Manitou Springs CO. Local owners, Elizabeth very nice and helpful with restaurant suggestion. Very very very clean. It truly is a motel and we loved it! We loved the two chairs on the porch to watch traffic and enjoy the night. It was a great experience. Definitely would stay there again. The grounds are very well kept and clean. Pool was closed due to weather but pool area was nice. Can’t say enough good things about the motel. We loved the neon No Vacancy sign, don’t see those anymore.

First you need to know that pretty much all places to stay in Manitou Springs are motels. The owners are very nice and welcoming and the room was very clean. If you want a fancy hotel, this is not for you. If you hike all day and just want to have a comfy and clean bed. This is the one. This motel is adults only, which I didn't mind. Close to everything and a gorgeous view of Pikes Peak!

We loved this motel!! It's walking distance to restaurants and grocery stores. Plus a liquor store across the street. Very friendly staff with excellent recommendations for day trips. Our room and bathroom were very clean with comfortable beds. We could see beautiful Pikes Peak from our room and porch seats. Definitely recommend this motel.
