Basic hotel in a great location *

Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A A

Only place to stay in Mesa Verde NP. With two stars and more appropriate to a parliament than simply described, so what do people do? What we can do for two nights found: great location, different residential building, all rooms with balcony in green surroundings, separate front desk building with a restaurant, further building with a self-service restaurant and shops. Cabins, we didn't see any, you have to go somewhere be the former. Our standard room was absolutely sufficient, rustic, with everything, which one needs, refrigerator, coffee maker, sink, ironing board etc. the balcony did we do after the excursions and with wonderful weather extensively used. Only the tiny shower bath with toilet you could forget, very unpleasant, as unsatisfactory, although everything was clean. Self-restaurant was okay. The Mesa Verde NP was a highlight of our trip and is on its way one-time with the cliff Dwellings Anasazi -Indian the. Furthermore, scenic wonderful with lots of animals. Since the ride alone from the national park-entrance to the circular routes with the rock apartments 25 kilometer is, for us, worth only this property, especially the park is huge. The journey from the next town Cortez almost 40 kilometer, so it is unnecessary and, in the evening 'just' to go out to eat!
