We were a party of four on a long distance bike tour. We rode 73 miles to arrive in La Junta. The desk staff could not have been more accommodating. We didn't expect anything extra, nor did we ask for it. They offered to lock our bikes in a conference room so our rooms would be more comfortable. They offered to freeze our 18 water bottles in their kitchen freezer overnight (for our 80 mile ride the next day). They even offered us their personal automobile to drive downtown to eat, because we were too tired to ride! There's no taxi, Uber, or Lyft in La Junta. So they kept trying to convince us to drive their Jeep Cherokee. I've never seen anything like it. I hope these employees are well-compensated. They sure deserve to be. Clean rooms, nice breakfast too.

All in all, a very wonderful stay at this hotel. We came in for 5 nights during Thanksgiving and…read morethis was the only hotel in town with a working indoor pool, hot breakfast and good reviews. The desk clerks were extremely friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was consistently good and had tasty options. There was not a great selection of fruit, only oranges and red apples, but there were rotating hot options including: egg & cheese foldover 'omelettes' sausage patties, german style breakfast sausage, scrambled eggs, ham and mini bagels with egg, cheese and ham.

I haven't seen but 2 people so far! Around here you can pay close to $200 ($12.50 per hour) for a room at the Hampton Inn or under $100 ($4.75 per hour) for a decent night's sleep here. I'm happy with my choice.

The nachos were very flavorful with various toppings. I believe the beer cheese, green chilies, pico and guac was a good combo with the seasoned steak. The taquitos have this good adobo, crema, carnitas combo that work together in concert. I did enjoy the pickled red onions that were just tart enough to offset the richness of the taquitos. Overall great experience with the wait staff that served us. Late Lunch was a good pace to customers coming in and out.

I guess I'm baffled why you're coming to La Junta, there hasn't been a UFO sighting here in years…read more If you're going to hunt aliens, though, the Holiday Inn Express here is a decent spot to stay. You'll want to be fresh and ready because the aliens are quick. Or at least they were. Like I said, we haven't spotted one in years. The place was clean, the bathroom showers are nice and hot, and the morning breakfast is adequate. There's a good chance you'll hear a rumbling in your sleep. That's not the aliens, unfortunately, that's just the train going by. La Junta is a train town. I saw some other folks complaining about the train. It's like y'all have never been in a train town before. You can hear a train from miles away. Trains are loud creatures, unlike those aliens that are ever so sneaky. So if you come to La Junta, and I can't think of a reason why you would, give the old Holiday Inn Express a try. You'll be nice and refreshed to confirm that there are no aliens in La Junta.

I really hate to give less than 4 stars for my stay here. But there were a couple things preventing…read moreme from giving a higher rating. One of these was stained towels. I get that it's a smaller family-run establishment, but black smudges on most of the towels are a little unsettling. The big red flag for me, however, was that the door had no working deadbolt, nor was there a chain/bar to prevent the door from being forced open. Maybe I'm just paranoid from having stayed in places where crime is a concern, but I consider a working deadbolt and/or a chain to be "standard equipment" at a hotel room and I have never stayed somewhere that didn't have one of those. Other than that, the room was fine. A/C was cold, water hot, internet fast. Really didn't like how far from the bed the nearest power outlet was, especially with cell phones being standard equipment nowadays. I probably wouldn't stay here again, but for my purposes (a traveler passing through who originally planned to camp, but sites were expensive), it was fine. I've stayed at far worse budget hotels on the High Plains and around the country, but I've also stayed at better.
