The lady at the front desk was very nice and very informative about things in the area. This is a small privately run motel. It is very obvious that the proprietors care about their customer service and making sure that their clientele are comfortable. I would definitely stay here again, it's affordable, it's cozy, it's convenient to food and shopping, and the management is exceptional.

Oldish property, undergoing remodeling (according to owners). Clean and pleasant room, new A/C, very nice owners who fulfilled all our requests. The place has a lot of potential, but also needs tons of work. A good place to stay at a reasonable price - would recommend.

Soft towels

Comfortable and quiet. Just what we like when traveling. Great place to base for day trip to Mesa Verde National Park. Nothing fancy but comfortable and the towels were so soft. Recommend.

Wasn’t glamorous, but very clean, good location on the main strip, and the owners were fantastic! Beautiful sunset from the property (owned by the motel) in back. Very close to great restaurants and the owner is a local so can make good recommendations. What motor hotels used to be … Do recommend!

Budget Stay Here!

The outside of this Motel looks a little run down. But it’s old. It’s been here a long time! It’s family owned and operated. Very friendly & fast check in. My room was big and super clean. The bed was super comfy and the water pressure in the shower great! Nice fluffy towels, a mini fridge, microwave, sitting area, dresser, closet, and I like having the sink outside of shower area. It was quiet and by fast food, restaurants, gas stations, & Safeway. Only 14min drive to Mesa Verde NP!!

Best deal in town

I use Hotels dot com a lot to book rooms. I read the reviews, look at pictures, make a decision. The Sleeping Ute Mountain Motel in Cortez was exactly what I expected after doing such a review through the app. It’s not a fancy hotel, but it’s clean. We were traveling with two kids to visit the National Park. We needed a cheap place to stay for the night. This room had everything we needed and at a good price. I’m not sure what year this property was built, but it’s built solid so there’s no road noise or noise from adjoining rooms. The air conditioner was ice cold and the shower was nice and hot. There’s quite a few hotels in Cortez, but this motel had the best price and I was able to get a good nights sleep and visit the National Park early the following day. And to the owners, thanks for the hospitality.
