Villa Motel at Manitou Springs
We were just staying one night and doing nothing but sleeping. The room was clean and comfortable which is all I expected. For a longer stay it would have been great to take advantage of the short walk to all the fun in downtown Manitou Springs.

The property is beginng to show its age. The small bars of soap were not large enogh to wash your hands, and certainly not large enough for bathing. The breakfast procedure was unexplained and disorganized.

Quality Inn and Suites Garden of the Gods
When I checked in the person (female) working that day around 5 pm was short with me, not friendly then later when I went to talk to her about another issue she was even more rude. It made the whole experience of staying here unwelcoming and I’ve stayed here many other times before.
