The classic virtues of a motor hotel = motel like no elevators. Just unload from your car to your room. Welcoming environment: light breakfast (Otis Spunkmyer quality if that helps) plus orange juice, etc. Microwave in snack room. Very clean. Good TV (Spectrum, not Roku).
Cute place. Nice update and remodel without destroying all the great things about this type of classic motel, beginning with no stairs to climb. Just unload your car. The room was clean but an alcohol wipe on the TV remote might have gotten a tiny bit of grime off. Blackout shades would be a useful update. Like all places, it needs an over-the-air TV antenna so guests can watch local TV (not sure how well that works in mountain towns, though). I’m no fan of Hulu.
We had a very nice stay at the American Classic Inn. It is a place that we will remember. The check-in was smooth and we were given a very good recommendation for dinner. Would recommend for others to stay here.
We didn’t know what to expect and were happily surprised to find such a welcoming, clean and reasonably priced motel. We are looking forward to visiting Salida again and booking at the American Classic Motel
Beautifully restored retro motel. Clean. Comfortable. Our room was out near the highway so maybe a bit noisy but not bad.
Grab and go breakfast wasn’t much.
Overall great value. Fun place. Will stay there again.
This is a unique hotel. The room was spacious with a changing room leading into the bath. They had a hall tree in the dressing area that all hotels should have. There were places for your luggage, shoes, and places to hang clothes all combined into one area. They seem to have thought it through when they put these rooms together, unlike some hotels. Highly recommend and will return if ever in the area.
The motel is well located, although you have to drive to go in Salida downtown (4-5 minutes). It was super clean, well decorated and surrounded by moutains. It was quiet, well equiped and easy to park. We were satisfied with our choice. But nothing fancy here, it is a motel not a 5stars hotel.
