Do you pine for a simpler time when hotels were small and friendly, and motor lodges were the king of accommodations? While this concept is harder to find today, there is one overnight adventure in Colorado that checks all these boxes and is guaranteed to take you back in time:

Welcome to the friendly Amigo Motor Lodge!
TripAdvisor/Management
Billed as a "Stylish Motor Lodge in the Mountains of Salida," the Amigo Motor Lodge is about as nostalgic as they come, beginning with the comfortable guest rooms.
TripAdvisor/Management
Unlike old hotels, these low-key yet stylish rooms are downright luxurious, as they boast Tuft + Needle mattresses, tasteful art and decor, and amazing bath products.
TripAdvisor/Management
In addition to the private rooms, the Amigo Motor Lodge - which was built in the 1950s! - offers private Airstream trailers decked out with a comfortable sleeping and dining area, plus clean bathrooms mere steps away.
