This is a small town and not many options so we were pleased that the Sands was so nice and well kept.

The hotel for what it is was just fine. I kind of enjoyed the horns of the train going by in the middle of the night, really, I'm serious! Reminds me of home...if you're looking for a Hilton then go to a Hilton

We stayed here while we were in town hunting turkeys. We had no issues with the room. The staff was attentive and very friendly. 10/10 would recommend to any hunters visiting Walsenburg.

This is a very old motel. 1950’s style. Door lock was loose on frame. Not secure. Room A/C was not on. Room warm.

It's an older building so the floors are creaky and the windows are old but it was clean and the beds were comfortable. The lady at the front desk was so nice. There is a train nearby that comes through a few times a night. I would definitely stay here again!

This motel was awful. You should remove it from your site. Very unsecure with hollow doors, outside handles made from interior doors and the only lock was the door handle lock. VERY RUN DOWN. Matted carpet from the 80's. Smelly. Sketcy ares. I could go on.

Staff was great. Let me park my bike under the canopy directly in front of my room. The room was dated, but very nice. It’s an old roadside motel and great for the price.

Adrien was wonderful! So accomadating! I happened on the Sands purely by chance when my car broke down and i couldnt have found a better place.
She recommended a shop around the corner, who were very helpful, and when i couldn't get it fixed right away she had no problem extending my reservation for 2 more nights!
Everything about this stay was wonderful! If i had to be stranded, im glad it was here!
