Best Little Hidden Gem - Family Owned!!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. If you're into more of a home-like, cozy feel, this place is it. I was going to be staying for 6 days, so got one with a full little kitchen. The furniture is not cookie cutter, more traditional B&B style. The staff (all family) are super friendly and down to earth. It's quiet, even for being close to a highway. Really close to Garden of the God's, Manitou, and easy to get to anything in the Springs. It's definitely my go-to , now, any time I visit Colorado Springs. Oh! And they're pet friendly!

We absolutely loved the retro feel of this adorable motel. Staff were amazing, and were kind enough to lend us a couple of wine glasses for our romantic evening. The pool was clean and had plenty of comfortable seating. The mattress was rather uncomfortable, but did the trick.

I'd pick this place again!

Stayed 4 nights on a holiday weekend. Convenience was the big plus, convenient to Manitou Springs-Hwy 24. Lots of eating choices in the immediate area, from local cafe's to fast-food chains, for all three meals. Encountered some minor problems, but staff & mangement was always friendly and responsive. Being a trip with my grandkids, the pool was a welcome feature for my group.

We stayed 2 nights. The service and people were friendly and helpful. Our room was cleaned and restocked when we returned from Pike’s Peak on the second day. We arrived the evening of 7/4 and they told us where the locals went for fireworks. It was amazing. Super convenient to Manitau Springs and Old Town.

My family & I are traveling across the states & this was our favorite lodgings so far. The parking was easy & made packing a baby & 2 cats in to settle super easy. The rooms have a vintage feel, are clean & allow easy access to Manitou Springs. I hope to be back & stay a while longer in the future. Thank You
