We stay here on our way to Colorado. Makes for a great stop. Our last stay offered a better breakfast but overall still good for one night. Plan to stay again on our next trip.

Love this place!
This is the kind of Motel I love and they are so hard to find anymore. It has all the old fashioned amenities and is welcoming. I love to be able to park right outside the door take my stuff in. The bed was comfortable and it was very quiet. I just wish they had been open for the restaurant and bar on Tuesday.

Clean, being updated. Good food.
This hotel has been consistently improving. Every time we stay you can see updates. The food in the restaurant is good but restaurant is closed Tuesdays and opens later for breakfast.

For an inexpensive overnight stop, Casa Lemas was great.
The beds were comfortable, the sheets and room clean. We were sad we missed the restaurant (it's closed on Tuesdays) and we left very early Wednesday morning. Great stay!

Not bad for a cheap overnight stay. For the price it was worth it but spend the extra $100 and stay at a nicer place.

The Casa Lemus motel is a great little place to stay when traveling back and forth between Colorado, Texas, New Mexico and all points south. It is nicely renovated and well maintained. I highly recommend!

The staff were wonderful and friendly. The room was spacious and clean. Unfortunately we stayed on a Tuesday when the restaurant was closed. The staff did recommend several places to go to with directions to each. Breakfast was wonderful for a continental breakfast. Well supplied with large variety of choices.

Great locally owned lodging!
After car trouble in Colorado, we needed a last minute hotel stay on our way home to OK. This was reasonably priced and had good reviews so I jumped on it. They called to confirm the reservation and offered adjoining rooms.
The continental breakfast was average, but we were thankful for a quick bite. Very friendly service!

I love the Homie atmosphere, and the dog friendliness. There was even a little corral for the dogs to use to run around again. Much appreciated. The amenities in the room or exceptional and the water is hot immediately. All the staff was very friendly.

Perfect
Tried to stay at a different motel, but it closed at 8pm. Crazy. This one was open until midnight and provided exactly what I needed: a bed for the night. The rooms are old but it’s a motel, nephew. Staff was friendly.

Cozy spot however aged. Room was clean with the exception of a large stain on top blanket/cover. Motel seems to be under construction with debris in parking lot. Otherwise, comfortable.

The hotel was fine. The staff were nice. Nothing really wrong with the room, but you won’t score points for booking this place for an anniversary. Breakfast was fruit, juice, yogurt, and microwave biscuits and pastries. A little disappointing when you factor in the price.

We enjoyed our quick stay here at the Casa Lemus. The hotel staff was very friendly and hospitable. The room we stayed in was very clean and well maintained. We got in a little late in the evening so the margaritas and appetizer we ordered were a welcomed snack. Also delicious. They have a nice Continental spread in the am that should get you down the road toward lunchtime too. All in all a very nice experience here and we will return when the occasion arises! Thanks Casa Lemus!

All good but laundry.
All was good for a motel. Old buildings, but room was mostly updated. Room was clean and all staff friendly and helpful. My only complaint is that I specifically asked about laundry 2 nights before check-in, as I knew I needed to use laundry. It was out of order and appeared to have been that way for and was not repaired during my 5 night stay.
I did not ever go to continental breakfast, only due to scheduling so cannot comment on that.

It is definitely a lower budget place, but I didn’t think it would be too bad till I woke up the next day with bites all over me. Obviously, cleaning is lacking. I would not recommend till they change the mattresses.

People are very nice. It’s an older place that’s well kept. The room we had was very large. Unfortunately, the AC unit couldn’t cool it down enough for us. The only real concern was that the pillows were not comfortable and were lumpy.
