We had a great experience at Amigo Motor Lodge. Our room was so clean and cool. The receptionist, Garson, was very friendly and attentive. They had carafes of waters for you and delicious coffee in the morning. The hot tub and little patio area were so cute and fun to hang out in. The location was convenient - very close to the town, only like 5 minutes.

We only stayed one night at this amazing motel. Room was comfortable and filled with all the amenities needed. Expertly decorated- best described as elegant minimalism/mid-century modern. Check-in and check-out was effortless. Located close to downtown Salida to enjoy all the area offers in activities and amazing restaurants.

During a weekend road trip, I booked a stay at Amigo Motor Lodge and was pleasantly surprised by how much character the place had. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a unique style that made it feel different from the typical chain hotel experience. After a long day of driving, it was nice to unwind in a quiet and welcoming environment. The staff were friendly during check-in and gave a few helpful suggestions for places to eat nearby. I’d definitely consider staying here again the next time I pass through the area.

Had a great 3 night stay here in May. A very cool retro property that’s been very well renovated. Really comfy bed, clean rooms, friendly staff and well located. We will definitely stay here again.
