My husband and I stayed here for the second time and it excellent value for the money. We booked directly through Magnusun hotels with the CAA/AAA rate of only $58.50.

Once again,for pure value and location,the colton was awesome! If your looking for vegas style hotels,this isn' t it,but for a decent place to stay in a great area and good price,the colton can' t be beat! Will be back again next year!

Beanda is a sweetheart a will make sure you have everything you need. The motel is located in the middle of town so walking to everything is possible. I stayed in room 20 lots of room and clean with a nice glider outside the room door.

You really can't beat the price.If you're bringing kids,it's cheap enough(compared to other nearby lodging) that you could probably spring for two rooms. This place is dated, but clean. It's walking distance to lots of shops and eateries. No frige or coffee maker( the wiring in the motel is too old for them). You could walk to the circle in... More
