Better than some high dollar chain!! Traveling from Texas to Denver and at about 11 last night I hit Limon. I wasn't at that point the little engine that could, I had to stop. So I took the first exit I saw and drove past a few motels. The Safari Inn just seemed to speak to me. It took the guy a minute to get to the front desk it was 1130 at night so that was understandable but he was so very nice and accommodating. The place was insanely clean even the front office was spotless. The room was very nice comfy bed and everything you need to recharge from a long drive. To be one hundred percent honest this place felt like I was staying with family. There aren't any bells and whistles just good honest place where you get what you deserve and more. If you have never stayed at a Motel this is the one you need to try first. read more

Friendly people, clean room, good location to stop before hitting the big cities off of the highway. Don't come expecting more than a basic stay and you'll find this is a nice place to hang your hat for the night. read more

After having a minor accident on I-70 and needing a place to stay, we found this charming motel. Reminded me of places we stayed when I was a child. Very well-kept motel and had a good rate. Breakfast was limited but was adequate. Owners were friendly and accommodating. More interesting than the cookie-cutter hotels near the freeway. read more

We are so glad we stayed here this weekend for the Lincoln County Fair. Owners are so accommodating, the pool is great (esp appreciated on 95 degree days) and all the clean amenities make for a very comfortable stay. Thank you owners, Stanley and Stella! read more

Clean and quiet place to stay. Help was friendly. Easy to find. Recommend this place

Lovely little hotel. It is hard to impress my wife when you're talking about cleaning, but this room met her standards! It is a pet-friendly establishment, and our dog enjoy his day as well. Be aware that there's a $10 pet fee, that doesn't show up on the website. The owner was very nice about it and I had no problem paying it. The rims are not large, but everything is well-maintained including the microwave, refrigerator, and TV. It was great to be able to take a dip in the pool, to cool off. The dog and I went for several walks around the neighborhood and the heritage museum is right up the street. read more

We really enjoyed our overnight stay here while traveling. I am a professional cleaner so I have high standards when it comes to my hotel/motel rooms. This place was great! Fresh clean smell as soon as you open the door to your room. Everything was very clean! I even checked the grout lines in the shower and the tiles to see if there was any soap scum buildup. NADA! Nothing better than a clean place to lay your head! Quiet little spot to stay that will even except your pets. Not to mention the beds were really comfortable too and the pillows fluffy. Great place to stay if you are passing through! read more

Stopped here last night after driving through a crazy snowstorm. It was after midnight and we were just relieved to find a place to stop for the night. But it was an unexpected delight! The room was a retro-lover's dream come true, perfectly clean and well-maintained. It took us back to the good old days, and fascinated our daughter, especially the groovy light switches. We also appreciated the free continental breakfast, which went until 10 am. Love these mom and pop places, they are much more interesting and charming than the chain hotels. read more

Stayed here one night with my two dogs. All of the motels near the interstate have inside corridors, which are a pain when one is traveling with pets. It was great to find this place, where I could back my vehicle right up to the door. The motel is older, but well maintained. I got the impression that the women at the front desk is also the owner and lives on-sit. She told me she is originally from Poland - which explains why the place was spotless. I'd definitely stay here again. read more

We stayed here twice, and both times it was a wonderful place for the money. Very clean, quiet, good beds, great shower. Light breakfast, but I appreciated the hard boiled eggs. It's nice to stay at a family owned place. read more

Very well maintained. Great value. Super clean. New mattresses, pillows, and TV's. There is ample parking and room for a moving truck to park. The owner is very friendly. A continental breakfast is included. read more

This is not a 5-star joint. BUT! It's clean, it's friendly, it's PET friendly! Our stay was peaceful and quiet. Lots of pillows. Descent wifi. Convenience store across the street. A diner across the other street. Coffee maker, mini fridge, microwave, non-smoking. read more

Safari Inn was a good place to spend the night and affordably priced. Quick check in, quiet spot and plenty dark. The king bed was extremely comfortable and there were no weird scents in the room or on our linens. As a bath lover, I was disappointed to find their tub was baby sized...I wish I'd taken a photo of it. Basically, it's like a shower stall width/length, but deep enough to still be a bath tub. I'm an average sized woman so I could comfortably sit in it, but there was no room to stretch out my legs (AT ALL), it felt like trying to bathe in a larger than normal Rubbermaid storage box. Fortunately it was also a shower. Continental breakfast was pretty good for a motel like this, they had hard boiled eggs, pastries/bagels with cream cheese, orange juice & coffee. It served its purpose and is in walking distance to a c-store and small grocery store. read more

My wife and I stayed at the Safari Motel after a 13 hour drive to Denver. From the outside, the hotel is rather bland, but this is to be expected from an antique motel. The owner at the front desk was polite and quickly met our needs with a king sized bed, non-smoking. The door seemed very secure and had updated locks. The room is a typical motel - type layout with mini-fridge and bathroom. The bed was very comfortable and the room was extremely clean. The free breakfast is basically comprised of gas station pastries and orange juice. All in all, we paid around $65 for the night and we're pleasantly surprised. This isnt the Hilton, but you get more than what you pay for. Definitely recommend to stop here if you are just needing a bed and shower for a night. read more

After driving 16 hours, I just wanted a clean and comfortable place to stay. Beds are very comfortable. Room was very clean, no weird smells. I even remove the bedding and pillows and check really well for bugs. Clean bill there. Only negative I have is Wi-Fi is very patchy. Been here several hours so far and have yet to connect to my phone but it mostly stays connected to my tablet. Owner was very friendly and I'd recommend this if you're looking for a clean place to stay. read more

The rooms were basically clean. The light fixtures were filled with bugs and yellowed. We never could connect the internet. It kept popping in and out of range. When it was in range the password wouldn't work read more

Perfect spot for passing through. Very clean and had everything needed. Fridge, microwave, cable, wifi, and walking distance to a couple of places to eat and drink. Well maintained property and everyone was nice. Im trying to do better at spending locally and this was one of the most affordable rooms in town. We're driving from Kansas City to LA so if you're ever on the 70 to the 15 route read my other reviews also for other motels and food on the way! read more

Run by a nice Polish family, this place is kept clean and well maintained. With no discounts, I paid $79 for a cool retro room that was surprisingly clean. The pool and garden area make you think you're at a friends house, instead of a roadside hotel. They grow tomatoes, beans, peppers, and greens in a really cool garden surrounded by Foxgloves, right next to the pool. The rooms have a sweet little "chalet type" window at the ceiling line, and a very useful built-in bench for luggage and gear that runs along one wall. There is also a old style control board by the bed with switches that control all the lights in the bedroom and bath. Complete with HBO, free WiFi and a Jackalope at the check-in desk....for the price and location this is a great place to rest and wash some of the road off yourself. read more

Very rude service. We were carrying our things out half an hour before checkout, and the maid walked in while we were taking our time packing. She started turning off the things we were using, like the heater. I happily blasted it back on because it's cold and we paid for it. Do not enter a room when someone has paid for it. Thank you. read more

Clean and very affordable motel (especially with AAA discount). First room we were offered smelled a bit funky (maybe smokey) but they offered us another room no problem. Breakfast was nothing special but the k cup coffee was nice. For the price, it was perfectly nice. read more

Great price! Clean room, comfy bed, the bathroom was a pretty good size and they had magazines and pamphlets at the front of things to do in Colorado :) Our room was just as nice as most of the more expensive hotels we stayed at. The only thing here not as nice was the breakfast, which to be honest, I'd rather just go out and buy something at the store :) so it worked out. Great place to stay! Definitely recommend it! read more

I really wanted to love this place, from the Yelp reviews. Instead, I just liked it. I do think I'm here in something of an off season, for what it's worth. I would come back, just because I know what I'm going to get and it's not bad. I've stayed in my share of kooky Colorado mountain town motels, and this is just like all of them. I paid $60 for a queen in October. The desk is staffed by a nice Polish man who took a reservation earlier in the day by first name only. That was cool. I'm driving west across country in October. I drove an extra hour to stop here, thinking Safari would be some cool exotica themed motel. It's not, aside from the name. It's just a motel. An old one, but they have done a good job keeping it updated and, more importantly, clean. I was dearly hoping to turn the key and flick on the lights and see a zebra print bedspread. Instead, it was the usual motel digs. It smelled strongly like fresh paint in my room, which is both unpleasant and a sure sign that they are keeping up appearances. They do run a good color palette here- mints and pinks and eastern european patterning. There was a problem with flies in the room, which was probably a fluke, due to the season and weather. They are probably everywhere around here, and trying to come in to avoid the cold. I did have to spend 20 minutes whomping those suckers. I'm sure if I'd said something, the staff would have moved me. I slept very well. The lot seems very safe as well. I have my life in my car right now. Nothing to report. The town is actually a strip of (I think I read) 13 motels, all original era Motor Hotels. Pretty sure they all have nebulous adventure names. I'm sure there's a "Starlight", and maybe another with "Palm" in the name. In October at 7pm on a Thursday, they were all in various degrees of "Meh, are we open?". Safari seemed like the "most open" motel I drove past, and they advertise on I-70. I took a star off for the age, and a star off for the random fly situation, but overall, I would come back here. read more

Great place to stay. Nice rooms. Hot water that stays hot, nice shower, clean, and great staff! Coffee pot, good coffee, microwave, fridge, sweet rolls, and food in the area. Note that most things close around ten, and gas stations are only food options after. read more

We don't stay in motels / hotels often but were too exhausted to continue driving late last night. This is the nicest motel we've stayed at in a long time, especially for the price. We usually bring our sleeping bags into motel rooms & sleep on top of the sheets but that wasn't necessary here! Clean room, friendly staff & even a cute little dog! The outside of the hotel is pink, which I also loved!! read more

The gentleman at the front desk was super nice and professional even when I checked in at 3:30 am. Rooms were clean and comfortable, with an old school feel. If I ever pass through Limon again I'd probably stay there over a bigger chain. read more

This hotel was so great! It was a little out of the way, but well worth the few extra minutes to stay. It's clean and the bed was very comfortable. The owners are a very nice Russian couple who made sure we had everything we needed. The man was kind and very welcoming when we came in late at night. The hotel had several awards hanging on the wall in the front office. One for christmas decorations and one for landscaping. Based on the room we stayed in, I'm sure the awards were well deserved. We will stay here again on our way back home. It's nice to get excellent customer service and this hotel deserves an A+ for that! read more

I've stayed at many hotels in both big cities and small communities. I was really impressed with he Safari Inn. It is obviously a hotel hat was built in the 1950's or 1960's but has been upgraded. It is very clean, awesomely comfortable beds and just very clean (yes I know I said that twice). I would hands down recommend this hotel over the big chain hotels and the cost of he room was very reasonable. We will definitely be back. read more

Very clean Motel! Nothing fancy! Just needed a place to sleep and take a shower! Had a pool out front and a playground for kids! Nice!

Very clean and was a pleasant, quiet stay. Total was $75 including tax and pet fee. It's family-owned and the family is friendly. Nothing bad to say about the place! It's nothing fancy but we'd stay there again if we were in the area. read more

Older motel but the room was clean and a nice king size bed and friendly staff. We would stay here again.

We found this motel in an online search. Although reviews were good we really didn't know what to expect at this low price. What a wonderful gem. Check in was smooth and an AARP discount is available. The room came with a refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and hair dryer at no additional cost. Both the bedroom and bathroom were clean...including linens. The only reason I didn't give 5 star was the tub was short and no lotion or conditioner was found. We recommend Safari Inn to I-70 travelers. read more

Stayed in the safari motel on the way to Yellowstone. The staff was very nice and helpful. It is true that it's outdated, but for the price and for cleanliness (let me say that I am a germ freak and it was fantastic) this place can't be beat. He even let us do a late check out for no additional cost! read more

Read lots of good things about this place so made a reservation 3 wks before my road trip. Arrived here at 9:30 after driving 8 plus hrs from Kansas City and no one responded to the office bell. Telephoned the motel from the lobby and Finally a man emerged from the back, mussed and groggy. Ended up he " made a mistake" and " he DID have a room "but the people didn't check out"! Pretty frustrating... Asked us to wait a bit but came back with no ideas. Didn't offer to find us a room and after 4 motels with no vacancies, we fortunately found a room. read more

It's a small town with many hotels. This hotel is old like almost all of them in town, but it is one of the cleanest I have been to in a long time, and the staff is very accommodating. My car broke down here so I was stuck in town for three days. The owner drove me to the other side of town to try different restaurants. They are helpful and friendly. read more

Excellent hotel with clean and well maintained rooms. A much better alternative than the expensive chain hotels just down the road. Wonderful customer service; I left a sweater there and had it promptly mailed to me just a few days later. Would recommend and would stay again at this delightful establishment. read more

Very clean and quaint motel. Polish couple owners have made this a little haven in Limon - a spot on the road. Beautiful flowers and nice little pool make this a pleasant place to stay. read more

Very sweet mom & pop motel. Rooms are clean and well maintained. Frig, microwave & pet friendly (if your dog is not a yapper, otherwise go some place else) Beds are very comfortable for a budget level motel. Rooms are big. Okay restaurant across the street. Grocery store 2 blocks away. Railroad, farm equipment museum 4 blocks away. Sweet place to rest for a night or hang for a few nights. read more

Great place for all - especially ones with small children. Out front there is a small playground and in-ground pool that is keep very nice. You can tell the owners really strive to take care if the place; it appeared they wee working on adding a new fence around the pool for safety reasons. We arrived late at night after calling ahead to make a reservation - they were very accommodating. The rooms were clean, though apparently had some use, but this is to be expected since It looks like many stop here due to necessity or reputation. The bathroom was especially clean. Don't miss out in this place! read more

Update. After 4 nights of stay doing long, odd oilfield hours, this place is quiet and quaint. Sleep is easy at any hour, and the garden area makes for nice stroll. The owners/operators are friendly and accommodating. read more

You must get a renovated room otherwise you will spend the whole night wondering how the heck this place is triple a rated. Breakfast included donuts, they were literally all gone at 7am because everyone wakes up and gets out of here as fast as possible. read more
