Exceeded Expectations

Thanks to traffic I got in after the office closed. They were so helpful and I got into my room with no issues. The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. I couldn't ask for anything more.

Our stay at Raton Pass was great. The owners greeted us at check-in. The western-themed room was charming. The only concern we had with the room was the lack of a bright enough bedside reading light. Would definitely stay there again!

This motel may be older but it is extremely clean and well kept. (Trust me… I carry a can of Lysol to hotels, I didn’t need it here!). The owners were great with communication and accommodating our late arrival. Excellent place to stay!
