    You can see the gum! Yes it looks like a tomato so we looked closer.
    Sharon W.

    Are at the restaurant for breakfast and was running late so had it to go. As we were eating my co worker looked down at the To go box and on the side of the box was a freaking chewed up piece of gum. acceptable. Disgusting and straight up wrong. The customer service is non existent rude people. Went to complain only to wait 20 min for someone to come to the front. Workers walking by and not asking if I needed help. There are many good places you can eat breakfast in Cortez.

    Nice

    Just the buffet. It was terrible! Hard biscuits; hard, cold fish sticks; chicken Alfredo with no chicken.

    My time here was very limited, but the staff was very polite and the place was immaculately clean.

    Okay soooooo casino wise -- lots of great slots. Only a few tables. However, the slots are TIGHT…read moreas heck. Just plan to lose and you will be fine having fun. Boyfriend did better on the tables... that is par for the course. Front desk was initially a bit bristly but ended up being okay. He was worried about our service dog being just a pet initially but didn't question a whole lot. We arrived late without a reservation and the accommodated us easily. There is a pool area we saw while walking in but did not experience it first hand. We were downstairs but it was easy with the elevator. All housekeeping staff was very nice. Inside the shower they had an attached conditioner as well as a body/hair wash (unique) and the scent was light and fresh. The shower was large and I loved it. With real shower doors (you get bonus points for me with that). Hair dryer was in the room. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room was well appointed. I like the fridge and microwave as well as the little coffee nook. Overall this was a nice refreshing stay with good AC just what we wanted and needed. I will be back...

    Good experience at the White Eagle while spending the night from Pennsylvania and exploring Mesa…read moreVerde. Held our breath while opening the door to the room, but room 17 was clean and well equipped with 3 double beds for our family of 5. Cable TV worked well, internet took a few minutes to connect but worked fine, and showers were hot. Other patrons were quiet and caused no disturbances. Only issue was the tub drain that did not drain, but after borrowing a plunger and attempting to gain flow, the manager gave me the room key to the room next door so we could continue our shower process. Problem solved! It is family- run establishment, which I like to support- and although dated, it was clean, convenient, and at $147, more affordable than other options in Cortez. Thanks, White Eagle!

    **Family-Owned, Clean Pet-Friendly Motel That Checks All the Boxes**…read more The White Eagle Inn was a very nice stop to recharge on our way to New Mexico. Being a family-owned hotel with just three owners in 60 years, it was satisfying to support a local business run by two charismatic and enthusiastic owners that deeply care about their property rather than another hotel chain run by the "Big Six" (IHG, Choice, Wyndham, Hyatt, Marriott, Hilton). We arrived late at night, but the owners were so kind to arrange a late check-in process. Check-in time is from 3-9 so they were generous to accommodate us. The late check in was convenient and socially distant. The owner Kellie even sent ice to our freezer! Nice touch. -Location: The hotel is located right off the highway through Cortez, though a little removed from the city center. -The Hotel: White Eagle has a homey, down-to-earth yet earnest feel. It is a lovely throwback! There are 16 rooms and a nice picnic area with grill. There are 2 areas for the furbabies. Pet friendly but you absolutely need to declare your animals. Rooms are a single level motel format with quaint front desk area. -The Room: We had the triple room 17 which was very comfortable with three double beds. It is located at the end of the motel and has two chairs and a table in front. The room was clean and had retro wood paneling and traditional lamp shades. The bathroom was properly sealed and very clean. There is a table and chairs for eating as well as desk with chair. The beds are a bit springy but nice. It was so nice to have three beds for three travelers. Light fixture above window may need some dusting (mostly negligible but just wanted to point it out). Room blackouts out with ease for easy sleep. The bathroom had tile floors and the shower was very quiet. The water pressure is lower, but this is the desert! Perfectly understandable. However, the hot and cold faucet knobs took more adjusting to get the right temperature (bounced between very hot and very cold fast). They did not skimp, with tons of towels, washcloths, toilet paper, and shampoos/soap (came in individual packages) in the room which was so welcome! A/C ran consistently and the room stayed cool in the Colorado heat. Two important notes are that check out is at 10 AM and that there is no breakfast (though there is tea and coffee). Better get your early bird game on and get the worms! Check out is seamless, just put the key in a drop-off at the lobby door. The owner Mark personally sent us goodbye and gave us some great recommendations for the area. Positives: + Enthusiastic Staff + Three Beds Option + Tons of Towels + Quiet Shower + Only 16 Rooms + Easy Check In and Check Out + Great Value Neutrals: / Location Quips: - No Breakfast (understandable with COVID) - 10 AM Check In (due to COVID) - Knobs on Shower Overall White Eagle Inn was fantastic and we will definitely return when we see Mesa Verde! Excellent Value! 106 for a clean room and three beds is unbeatable.

    What a prize! I was driving east through Arizona to Colorado…read moreand just couldn't drive anymore. When I arrived in Cortez, CO I decided I would stop. I looked on Google for hotels, but all the listings (commercial ads) were $90+ so I pulled into a place that the place with the sign that said, "Historic Hotel, Low Rates, Free Wifi". The office staffer, Connie, was amazingly nice. She gave me a "National Park Pass" discount of $10 so my room was under $70. Price is nice, but the room was truly "historic" AND very clean. Queen bed with lots of room to walk around it and a large bathroom. Plus the Wifi was lightening fast. I download all my photos from the Grand Canyon without so much as a slow down. I'd like to come stay here as a weekend destination get away; too bad its 1400 miles from my home.

    Given the reviews here and on the other sites, I was expecting a well above average motel. But it…read moreappears there was a recent change in ownership and, with those ownership changes, came changes in hospitality and the guest experience. I stayed here in August 2019, which judging by past reviews, was shortly after the change in ownership. Check-in was alright and I was directed to a room in the front of the property. When I pulled up to my room, a staff member doing work on the came up to me and asked for my room key so he could turn on the AC and make sure the room was ready...okay. This might just be my New York paranoia talking, but I gave the room a thorough inspection when I got inside. The room was a 50s motel room, which was about what I expected. Furniture was dated, but it was clean. The internet password was not posted prominently and required me to read the fine print in the guide. Most hotels post the wifi password prominently and don't expect you to spend 15 minutes looking all over the room for it. Once I got that settled, the room was generally quiet and comfortable. The next morning, renovation work was going on pretty early in the morning. Thankfully, I wanted an early start anyway, so I wasn't bothered. This property worked for the night, but I'm not sure I'd return. Independent motels are always a gamble and, unfortunately, this one didn't live up to the past reviews.

    After a long drive through several states to arrive to the fair-weathered town of Cortez, Colorado,…read moreI was pleased to see this hotel within walking distance of so many places. It's an ideal location for those conscious of the environment to easily move around and find what you need. At first glance, I thought the fountain was inappropriate until I got closer and realized the water is meant to flow from a vase and not something that's... erm... Well something often uncovered on a Greek statue. Love love LOVE the Southwest theme! Native Americans come in to set up a pottery and jewelry table in the lobby Monday through Friday from 6 - 10 am. The breakfast also has a sizable spread just outside the lobby with a variety of coffee, tea, and juice to choose from. Also, it was nice to see Halloween decorations at the front desk, reminding me fondly of my childhood. The bathroom was spacious and came with a tub. Something I've noticed lately is that tubs only seem to come in handicap accessible rooms, and now knowing what I do, I don't wish to ever take that away from someone who needs it more. However, I'll note that the counters, closet, and door latches are all shorter with those needs in mind. The floor tiles coming in have these really awesome Native American stamps, and the lamps have similar design. The curtains are in hues of green, blue, and turquoise, and the furniture is nice. The tellie works, and the bed has no right to be so comfortable. During our first night, the lamp switched on and off by itself repeatedly, walking us up at odd hours. I know, I know, you're thinking, it's not haunted, there's a scientific explanation for this! There was. The bulb was loose, and vibrations from the floor above us kept tripping it. BUT WAIT! There's more. As I have the ability to work from my laptop, I noticed things slightly out of place. Not moved, per se, but shifted. And on Thursday, my vape lay flat on the counter, minding its own business and not hurting anything when I watched in real time as it rolled off the counter and shattered on the tile. RIP glass tank, RIP. I will say right now that it was far from the ledge and the surface was level. My vape had no reason to roll away on dangerous adventures. All I can say is if my room was haunted, 1) that's freaking awesome and 2) it's likely a playful ghost. But I really wish it hadn't targeted my poor vape. That gets expensive. Speaking of oddities of the non supernatural variety, the floor length mirror is right in front of the toilet. For the love of all things good, why is this a thing? I really don't need to watch myself do my business on the pot. That's weird. A final thing I will note regarding the building that has been echoed in many reviews is that the foundation, decor, carpeting, and dim hallway lighting is all dated. It actually didn't bother me because it gave the odd happenings a very fun appeal, and I also felt an old charm. However, this hotel probably could do with a remodel at some point. Amenities: The indoor pool and hot tub are nice. I wouldn't say the pool is large, but there was enough room for me to comfortable swim laps while my husband relaxed in the jacuzzi after being on his feet all day. Laundry room: didn't use. This hotel charges for those features, and half the equipment was out of order. Fitness Room: right next to the laundry room, and both of these amenities are in a building in the same parking lot but separate from the main building. Staff: Excellent! They were on top of our needs, providing me with extra coffee for my Kürig, switching out our towels since we have the DND sign up, and even placing trash bags on my door handle after I'd set out my bags in front of my door (I'd brought my own but this was nice). I even got to know the morning housekeeper a bit during my stay. My week consisted of a fantastic, if not slightly spooky and fun experience. I'd definitely return.

    I understand the hotel is being renovated, but why are you booking people in rooms that are still…read moreunder construction? The sink leaked the drain under the sink was a flimsy plastic tube. Th were was only one working outlet in the room. No trim along the floors and the main door to the hallway was broken. We pre booked this hotel and arrived late so there was no other options in town.
