Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the motel’s location on West Colorado Avenue puts you within walking distance of local diners, cafés, and pubs. Need a bite late? Nearby spots stay open past midnight for that much-needed post-show snack. No breakfast on-site, but several spots nearby serve up hearty brunches for the morning after.

What People Say

Guests love the cleanliness, affordability, and the fact that the rooms are surprisingly spacious for the price. Many mention the mountain views as a highlight, and the indoor pool is a nice perk. Reviewers also praise the friendly staff and the ease of parking.

Areas for Improvement

This is a motel-style stay, so don’t expect luxury extras like room service or plush bedding. The decor is a bit dated, and the early check-out time of 7:30 AM might be tough after a late night. But for the price and location, most guests feel it’s a great deal.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly stay with mountain vibes, close to Colorado Springs music venues, Garden of the Gods Motel hits the right note.
