Perfect motel for travelling through
This is a basic motel. It was perfect for us travelling through Arapahoe. Check out the on site distillery and tasting room. Room was pet friendly, clean and well appointed.

The room was clean and well maintained. The beds and shower were great as were the nice fluffy towels. There were only a few people in the motel, so we were surprised when the room next to us was rented. The people staying there came in late and were inebriated (their statement which we heard while they were trying to get into their room) and were pretty noisy. It was too bad they were right next door when it seemed that other rooms were available.
