American Classic Inn

It was clean, warm, and cozy. They swept the snow away from my unit in the morning. The office staff was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay there every time I come to Salida!

Nice, affordable place with a unique style. Friendly staff. Would stay here again.

Don’t book a room there! There is a reason only 3 rooms were booked when I stayed there, poor customer service. Front desk person seemed put out that I was checking in after 7pm. Grab & go breakfast was non existent, as myself and the other guests discovered. To top things off, even though I followed check out procedures & was out of my room by 10 am, I was harassed & threatened by an employee, who said being out of the room was not enough, I needed to be off the property by 10:15! I was in the back of my truck rearranging some items before getting back on the road. The employee drove up, immediately got out of his vehicle, and started shouting demands at me to get off the property or he would charge me for an additional day. When I told him I would dispute any charge like that, he threatened to call the police, called me derogatory names several times, made slurs about my age a number of times, & did all this in front of the only 2 guests left on the property! Needless to say, I stopped what I was doing, & to avoid any further confrontation, drove off the property immediately. I tried to speak with a manager about this incident, but basically they backed their rude bully employee, saying he did nothing wrong. Furthermore, they charged me for an additional day in the room, which leads me to believe that this is a scam they run on guests to charge them for an extra nite in the room! I have initiated a dispute of those extra charges through my credit card company.

Very unique and cute retro style motel, Clean with a comfortable bed

Such a beautifully redone motel! We loved the theme carried thru out the rooms and the outside. It was extremely clean too. They had a very nice grab & go breakfast that’ll get you on your way. It was one of our favorite places ever! We’ll definitely stay here anytime we’re in the area.

Owners put a lot of effort into making this place comfortable and welcoming by adding special touches!

Great little remodeled motel Super clean and comfortable room Walkable distance to restaurants

Perfectly adequate for the price. Blinds could be darker for room windows facing west towards sun.

The woman at the front desk could use better customer service skills. Her interaction with those in our group was less than friendly.
