Casa Lemus Inn and Restaurant

Didn't find anything wonderful about this place. Check in was slow. The older man at desk didn't even acknowledge me. They advertise a continental breakfast, but none was available. They did take $10 off the room for that and we ate at the Dennys just a block away. The grounds were not well kept in areas and the ramp leading into the office/restaurant did not feel safe to me. It was very bouncy and I felt like I could fall as I do not have good balance, even with my cane. The room was large and clean but the bed was so high I could hardly get in it, and I'm pretty tall. There was a heavy table between the wall and bed! Not a good place at all. It was too heavy for me to move. I ended up kicking it once but thankfully I didn't hurt myself.

It wasn't a clean looking town and probably would bypass this town next trip. Only would stay here again if nothing else was available.

Didn’t stay at the inn, but the food was delicious! The salsa was extremely fresh (made just before it arrived at our table) but it did need salt. The queso and guacamole were absolutely scrumptious and the Colorado burrito was fantastic. Their apple chimichanga kept me coming back for more bites, even though I was absolutely stuffed! Our waiter was also very kind and accommodating.

Really nice people, I had 2 tacos al carbon and split nachos with my wife. So good I ordered 2 more tacos. Even though it was the end of the night and they had large parties of families and Boy Scouts come in they did a great job looking after us, refilling drinks, water, chips and updating us on our order. Don’t let the looks fool you, it’s good eats if you’re passing through.

Rooms are very large and clean. They are very dated, however. Rooms were quiet and comfortable. Towels were very small and thin and linens were a little thin as well. Felt a little over priced for what it was.

Food was not as great as everyone seemed to indicate in their reviews. The fajitas were basically flavorless. We had to dump on the hot salsa (which was delicious) to give it any flavor. Same with breakfast. We ordered the breakfast skillet, which was the fajita veggies, some potatoes, and some cheese. Again, not a lot of flavor. Not sure what was up with our cook. Great veggies all real fresh and cooked well, just no seasoning.

Overall a decent place to stay and eat.

Very nice place to spend the night. My room was very reasonably priced, clean and had a home like feel. The restaurant was a pleasant surprise that reminded me of my favorite hometown eatery and starkly contrasted the chain establishments that dot the interstate. The staff were respectful, but in a warm, welcoming way.
