Very friendly staff showed us around.

The room was pretty cozy, clean, and surprisingly had some nice modern touches like a mini fridge and coffee maker. It was smaller since it's a historic place, which added to its charm but might feel tight for some. The decor was cute, really capturing that vintage vibe from back in the 1930s. Just a heads up, it's an old building, so soundproofing isn't great. I could hear my neighbors a bit, but it wasn’t too disruptive.

The vintage charm of this place was amazing! The old-time elevator was a fascinating touch. We got a unique experience that added to our adventure around the Sand Dunes National Park.

I enjoyed my stay at Monte Villa, the historical charm definitely added to the experience. The owner was incredibly friendly and even upgraded my room upon check-in. I loved the vintage vibe of the hotel with modern amenities like a refrigerator and coffee machine. The room was clean, except for a bit of dust on the end tables. The bed was comfortable, making it easy to get a good night’s sleep. However, the bathroom was really small, making it difficult to move around, and the shower stall felt cramped. The hallways needed a bit more attention. they could have been cleaner. It would be great if the owners focused on restoring the restaurant and lounge areas, which would enhance the experience even more. Parking was adequate but could use better lighting. Overall, if you're someone who appreciates history and personal service, this place is a gem, but be prepared for some quirks that come with an older hotel.

Charming and Affordable Stay

We loved our stay! The antique elevator was a fun touch, and the owner’s hospitality made us feel so welcome. Breakfast was thoughtfully delivered right to our door. Perfectly located near local restaurants and great coffee shops. Highly recommend for a cozy experience!

We visited the amazing Sand Dunes National Park and explored the charming local shops. The staff were super friendly, and the hotel had a vintage vibe that made it special. It’s a budget-friendly place with clean rooms and great service. Perfect spot if you're on a group getaway! Definitely recommend it for its charm and hospitality.

The layout can be a bit confusing due to the building's age, which might catch some off guard, but it adds to the charm.

The vintage charm of this place is unmatched! The friendly staff ensured we felt at home while soaking in the history. Just a bit cramped in the bathroom. 😅

Gotta give a shoutout to Don Tomas Bakery just down the road for some bomb muffins! Plus, the staff are genuinely friendly, making you feel right at home. The hotel's vintage charm is a trip back in time, with lovely original woodwork stealing the scene.

But let’s keep it real, the whole place has an old-school horror vibe, and the portable AC units?

Charming, Charming, Charming

I loved the vintage charm of my stay! The staff is super friendly, always making you feel right at home while sharing the hotel's rich history. And that hot breakfast? Freshly scrambled eggs and bacon made my mornings a whole lot brighter!

easy strolls to dining and parks just steps away from the hotel

The staff were genuinely friendly, making me feel right at home, and I loved that there was a delightful bakery just a short walk away for fresh muffins to start my day. being close to popular dining spots and beautiful parks turned my stay into a fantastic weekend escape.

Clean, nostalgic vibe adds a unique character to the experience. The charming antique elevator gives a glimpse into the past, making each trip nice.

Rooms are cramped, akin to a Wookiee trying to fit into a speeder. The air conditioning struggles to cool down, turning the room into a bit of a sauna. Plus, potential guests might be put off by the unkempt exterior and weeds threatening to overtake the landscaping. Not the smoothest check-in process either, bringing in some undesirable stress right off the bat.

My kids wished there were more activities or amenities available for families, like a pool or a game room.

a charming hotel with genuinely friendly staff and adorable vintage vibes, perfect for a cozy stay

Genuinely friendly staff, adorable vintage vibes.

During our recent stay for a quick visit to see the beautiful sandhill cranes, we found the character of this charming 1930s hotel to be a delightful surprise. The old-style elevator really added a special touch, and the room was impressively clean with a comfortable bed. The friendly staff made our mornings even better with a delicious breakfast. The central location made it easy to explore nearby dining options. We had a lovely time and would gladly return.

Family with kids, perfect getaway

This place is like stepping back in time, the owners were so friendly, like really cared about us not just a job you know? And the homemade breakfast was just solid, like made from scratch hot eggs and sausage, brings you back to life after a long trip.

Wasn't exactly a penny, but for what we got it's a fair trade.
