Enjoyed my stay

Good stay - nice people. As you would imagine, less than current furnishings. However, quite clean, there is a Keurig coffee maker with 4 different pods to choose from in the room, and the breakfast was quite good, I thought. Good place to stay when visiting Mesa Verde.

The room was nice, clean and up to date. The only problem was the door had swelled a little from the rain so the dead bolt didn't quite go into the slot. The door knob locked.
