We love everything about this hotel. The rooms are clean, comfortable and each one has a different theme. The couple who own and run this property are so kind they treat you like they've known you forever and you'll love the message on the marquis. We will always stay here.

We cannot say enough kind things about this husband & wife team who own this. The room we stayed in was so stinking cute. Each room is themed. Ours was the “pin up”. Let your imagination. Very family friendly and so clean. The bathroom was so clean! Will go out of our way to stay again if going back home the same way.

I love this place, and go out of my way some to stop in Raton so I can sleep here. Every room is set up with cool old decorations around a specific theme. The owners are fantastic. Last time there they bent over backwards trying to help my buddy track down his lost wallet. It’s also easy walking distance to downtown, and while there’s not a whole lot going on in Raton it does have its charms.

Order 50’s era motel that brought back memories of traveling with my parents in the fifties. Love to support locally owned businesses rather than national chains. Would definitely stay again!

Loved our stay! This motel is very very special. Friendly owners greeted us, easy to check in and out, lovely breakfast snacks and coffee/tea. The room was very clean, with nice memory mattress, great water pressure in the shower. A truly great value for a unique experience. We will stay here again for sure!

Awesome place to stay

The owners were so sweet. We arrived later in the evening and they were very helpful at letting us know what was open to get a bite to eat. This is just the cutest place to stay. So clean and the rooms are themed.

Very good, but a couple issues

A great little retro motel in Raton NM, but the mattress in my room (#11) was saggy and soft, and the toilet and bathroom sink are very low to the ground, making them rather awkward to use.
