Cute place. Nice update and remodel without destroying all the great things about this type of classic motel, beginning with no stairs to climb. Just unload your car. The room was clean but an alcohol wipe on the TV remote might have gotten a tiny bit of grime off. Blackout shades would be a useful update. Like all places, it needs an over-the-air TV antenna so guests can watch local TV (not sure how well that works in mountain towns, though). I’m no fan of Hulu.

This is a great non-chain motel/hotel option in Salida. The rooms have been refreshed with great updated bathrooms! There were apparently satellite troubles when we were there and the front desk didn't know how to reset the TV so we had no TV - either for the evening or the next morning. This also seemed to slow down WIFI or WIFI was just a bit slow. Overall would be happy to try them again.

Beautifully restored retro motel. Clean. Comfortable. Our room was out near the highway so maybe a bit noisy but not bad. Grab and go breakfast wasn’t much. Overall great value. Fun place. Will stay there again.

This is a unique hotel. The room was spacious with a changing room leading into the bath. They had a hall tree in the dressing area that all hotels should have. There were places for your luggage, shoes, and places to hang clothes all combined into one area. They seem to have thought it through when they put these rooms together, unlike some hotels. Highly recommend and will return if ever in the area.

We had a very nice stay at the American Classic Inn. It is a place that we will remember. The check-in was smooth and we were given a very good recommendation for dinner. Would recommend for others to stay here.

Choose other lodging in Salida! Check-in process is a concern. Welcome email asks you to check-in via a drive-thru window which is odd behavior. This business scans a copy of your driver's license which is completely unacceptable in our current world of continual software breaches. I felt like the drive-in check-in process attempts to hide this practice. A bargain hotel in Salida Colorado has no justifiable reason for retaining an image of your ID. This practice is an unnecessary intrusion into your personal information and adds risk to the data leakage of your personal information.

My husband and I were attending a conference in Buena Vista for a week and decided to stay in Salida as the prices were better. We were thrilled with this location! We loved how safe, clean, well kept it was. They pay attention to detail and take pride in the facility. The bed was comfy, the bathroom was clean, the decor was so cute. My only critique is that I’m glad we brought our own pillows as the ones in the room were a bit flimsy. Wonderful wonderful stay.

The motel is well located, although you have to drive to go in Salida downtown (4-5 minutes). It was super clean, well decorated and surrounded by moutains. It was quiet, well equiped and easy to park. We were satisfied with our choice. But nothing fancy here, it is a motel not a 5stars hotel.

This property was really cute and I loved the parking right out front of our room. I felt like it was a really good deal for the price,great location,beds were comfortable, it was quiet and very clean. If you book here just make sure your read all the information they send you. The only issue we came across was when we needed more towels and didn't realize that you can only get them at a certain time, my fault for not reading the info better! Grab and go breakfast items were minimal but worked and was appreciated. For the price this is a great place to stay and I highly recommend it!!
