The room needs to have a coffee maker, and should really have 2 pillows/person. Reception quickly provided additional pillows, but having to go down into reception to get hot water from a dispenser seems odd.

This motel is a one star at best. It is currently being renovated and is in a terrible state. We had even considered forfeiting our payment and going elsewhere. The only good thing was the continental breakfast which was better than expected. Until all the repairs/modernisation are completed, stay well away

This property was really close to the town and its amenities. Unfortunately at the time of our visit there were roadworks which did make access a little difficult. Reception were extremely efficient and pleasant. The breakfast was more than acceptable and was replenished regularly. We were asked whether we wanted an upstairs or downstairs room and chose down. which was easier for access to the car park but our upstairs neighbours were a little noisy. Very nice park not far away

OK for a short-term budget hotel.
The best thing about the room was that it was clean! The bed was comfortable. This is an older motor lodge facility: dated, small room, second-story decking in need of replacement. The complimentary breakfast was better than expected for a budget hotel - eggs, meats, potatoes, waffles, etc. I would not book an extended stay here, but it was acceptable for a two-night stay since I wasn't in the room or at the facility during the day.

We booked this property fairly last minute due to a family emergency nearby and had to fly in with little time to prepare. The lodge was very decently priced. Overall there was nothing extremely disappointing, but it just very much is an older outdated and very bare minimum property. There's a lot of construction right now so it was loud and a little hectic to get in and out, but that's not really the Lodge's fault. Relatively nice room with a large spacious bed. The sheets were already stained but they were flipped inside out, just more proof of how outdated the lodge was. Outside of the lodge on the walkway to the upstairs rooms looked very unfinished and not very safe with floorboards that moved and made a lot of noise. The one thing that was a little concerning was that the rooms did not have any security locking mechanisms other than a deadbolt and the regular lock. As a female traveler who traveled with my wife, it would have been a lot more reassuring to have some sort of lock system that made us feel safer. Also considering the door keys were actual handheld keys so the door knobs and doors overall didn't feel very safe. Especially for an old style Lodge. With all of the doors being outside and visible from the street and all the surrounding areas. Would I stay there again? Probably not if it wasn't a last resort. But for the last minute necessity, it wasn't bad. Just very outdated and bare minimum.

Wonderful Stay
We chose Gateway Lodge because ALL other hotels near Glenwood Canyon were at least $280-300+ a night. We paid $130 a night at Gateway and it was such a good choice, especially for the wonderful price on a holiday weekend. We had heard that the hotels in Rifle were not clean at all-- and, this was so far from true at Gateway. It was wonderfully clean and we were impressed with how the property was being cared for. Thank you so much!!

The property has been recently upgraded and was super clean. The management was amazing. Very accommodating to the point of making us coffee and bringing it to our room when we were searching for it. Clean, friendly and felt like home. We would definitely stay again if the opportunity arises.
