Went on a 2 week motorcycle trip so we stayed at different places every night in 9 different states. This was our favorite place we stayed. Very friendly, clean and comfortable room. The shower was the best one we had on our trip. Would definitely recommend!

Place looked filthy and was dirty inside and out. There were underwear and socks still in the room when we arrived. I’m not sure the bathroom had ever been cleaned. Check in clerk was not friendly and didn’t seem to care much at all.

The place was recently remodeled and they did a really good job on it. Ther room was super clean. Everything was new.While we really enjoyed the sqeaky bed our neighbor was not amused. (The hotel is working on replacing the bed frames.) The rooms are small but they make up for it with great customer service and cleanliness. Can't beat it for the price.

After hours check-in was very convenient. However, they neglected to provide any property information regarding breakfast or pet areas. Waited until 7:30 for breakfast with no luck. Finally found pet area after making a lap of the property in the dark. Simple signage would go a long way.

Newly remodeled. It's the best motel I've ever stayed. My only tiny suggestion is to add a storage shelf for the beautiful shower.

Stay at MCML was okay…not the best, but definitely not the worst we’ve stayed at. For the price point, for a one night stay, it met our needs. It is an older motor lodge style property, with some updates. Seemed fairly clean. El Grande room was pretty tight for a king bed. All in all, we were satisfied, but would likely choose somewhere else for a longer stay.

Hotel owner has done a great job making the hotel modern and clean. Parking and proximity to the roadway are only flaws…but they are minor. Great outdoor area and grab and gos for breakfast were outstanding.

I was stuck in Montrose for the night because of United Airlines. The airport was completely closed by 230pm. So i was not having a good day. I was greeted by Clinton and Monty (adorable Yorkie) at the front desk. Clinton was very nice and helpful. Checked the room to make sure it was cleaned. The rooms are nice! Looks like they have been updated with tile floors, paint and some of the furniture. The bathroom looked updated. Even tho it is on the street they have a quaint outside fenced area with picnic table and fire pit.
