I have stayed at the Minecart motel on several occasions. The cost of stay is very competitive. The rooms are very clean and the room is furnished nicely. The beds are very comfortable. Parking is right in front of the room entry door, which is very convenient. The room includes a microwave and small refrigerator. It would have been better if there was an in-room coffee maker.

A nice little motel for a great price. The rooms were on the smaller side but nicely upgraded. The manager was very pleasant and had a great overnight stay while visiting family in the area.

Friendly and efficient staff. The upgrade to the property has fallen short. The tub facet is not in place. One small mirror in the bathroom is not helpful for two people.

Stayed here for two nights while exploring Black Canyon of the Gunnison NP. The place is near several restaurants. The room is cozy; nice flooring, comfortable bed, the place looks renovated. The bathroom is tightly-spaced; but it wasn't too much of an issue. The staff was courteous and willing to switch out our old towels with new ones. I really enjoyed my stay; and if I ever decide to visit the area again, I would book a room without hesitation.

When we first arrived, the property looked somewhat sketchy. However, the hostess Cara immediately made us feel welcome and cared for. She made herself immediately available for the few questions we had, all as she was busy turning over other rooms. The motel had been undergoing upgrades and we really appreciated some of the nice improvements. The next morning, the hostess Trish made us also feel very welcome at breakfast. We highly recommend these two wonderful ladies. Our experience definitely causes us to recommend this motel!

Very comfy bed, clean little space, and price is nice for this area. I am sensitive to smells and while the room was very clean, it smelled strongly of some cleaning product which was unpleasant for me. Didn’t bother my husband at all!

A classic old school motel in town, close to the National Park. The room was small, but clean and recently refurbished. Parking was tight and limited. Seemed a bit overpriced for what it was. I slept great on my one night stay. That's what I was there for.
