The Royal Suite of Roadside Inns! If you've ever wondered what it's like to live like royalty without the royal price tag, Gateway Inn and Suites is the place! TWO king beds--because one just isn't enough. The pillows? Like sleeping on clouds hand-fluffed by angels. The bedding? So comfy, we briefly considered canceling our plans just to hibernate. And then, just when we thought it couldn't get better--BAM! A pull-out couch that turns into ANOTHER king bed. It's like the hotel version of a magic trick!Smack in the middle of the room? A round table for four--perfect for meals, card games, or intense negotiations over who gets the best pillow. And the fun doesn't stop there! The play area was basically an amusement park disguised as a hotel: darts, arcade basketball, pool, foosball, cornhole, a sauna, a HUGE TV, and cardio machines (for pretending we'd exercise). But the crown jewel? The enclosed whirlpool with twinkle lights! It was like soaking in a bubbly fairy tale.The deck and patio? Adorable. The vibe? Seasonal and magical. The breakfast? Chef's kiss! Our kids thought they'd stumbled into a buffet from their dreams. And let's not forget the staff--truly some of the friendliest people we've ever encountered at a hotel.Final verdict? We're already planning our return. Gateway Inn and Suites, you've won our hearts (and our future reservations).

After flying three hours and driving another three, I couldn't wait to pass out in a bed. When I landed at Denver I received a call from Gateway saying that the front desk would be closing at midnight and that they would be leaving my keys outside for me, which was nice, but concerning considering every booking website said this hotel had 24 front desk. I knew I was arriving late and picked this place for that reason. The rooms are very small, but quaint. The water pressure is okay. The bed is a little firm and the pillows didn't work out for me. There is only a single lock on the doors and there is a knob you can spin that rotates "do not disturb and make room" on the outside of the door for house keeping to see. However, mine was broken. So I was woken up at 8am by housekeeping both mornings which was irritating. The ac unit in the room was very finicky and worked when it wanted to. Overall, you get a clean room with a mini fridge and microwave. The location is great to everything in town. The cost is appropriate but a little high for the quality. Be cautious as all units are outside, corridor style. The stairs are very noisy and unfortunately like any other hotel you can't control the volume of the other guests staying near you.Not a Ritz, but definitely not a Motel 6.

One of the nicest rooms we've ever stayed in in. Very plush bedding, nice tile and carpet, very good staff eager to please the customer. Totally unexpected for such a small town. We needed a last minute change and they bent over backwards to get us accommodated. They have an outdoor enclosed hot tub which was perfect temperature despite being 10 degrees outside. We will definitely stay there again.

They almost ruined my wedding night. We booked their honeymoon suite. When we arrived the night of they claimed that our card declined, they tried calling us, and they resold our room after 2 hours which is their policy. We never received any calls from them and our card had more than enough funds on it. I think what really occured was that some tourist came and offered them extra cash to give our room to them and they did because they are greedy jerks. Do not book here, this is the second time I have tried to reserve a room here and the second time they cancelled my reservation the day of. Completely unreliable and unprofessional. Not worth the headache of trying to find last minute bookings when our town is full.

My room was very clean. Check in was quick and the person checking me in was very friendly. This would be 5 stars except the pillows were very hard and uncomfortable.

For inexpensive place to stay in Salida, it gives the feel of excellence. Super clean, nice room with a beautiful tile backsplash in the bathroom area. Plenty of great amenities, towels, a hot tube, microwave, and fridge. Lovely breakfast in the morning, plenty of choices so there's something for everyone. We had a great time and we will be back!

The room was clean but the ice is way across from where our room was. We got in the hot tub, which was so full of chlorine we had to get out because it was burning. Now after a week we still have ruff and bumpy dry skin from the chlorine. Not sure when it will clear up. If you stay avoid the hot tub

Sent here from another hotel - the town was very booked!We came into town in the early evening on a weekday without a reservation, not realizing that there was a major event in a few days for kayakers. The town was booked pretty solid! After stopping at several hotels, the last one called and talked to the Gateway Inn front desk and secured us a reservation and we drove down the street to check in. I am always a little leery of 'motels' because sometimes you get a hidden gem but sometimes its a nightmare. Not having a choice we checked in and was given a 2nd floor room. This hotel has no elevators - warning to you if you have heavy luggage! We did, and I nearly popped a few vertebrae moving a suitcase up the stairs. Upper floors are definitely not ADA accessible. The room was good - thank goodness - and surprisingly quiet. Breakfast was OK. Would I stay here again? Maaaybe - but I would make sure I had a 1st floor room and reserve ahead of time.
