Retro Roadtrip: Silver Saddle Motel in Manitou Springs

Our second night in Manitou Springs we decided to try another mid-century motel – and we were lucky to stumble on the Silver Saddle Motel – locally owned by Artur Bryja and Brittany Kelly, we found the staff very friendly, the rooms andd facitilies clean and it was pet friendly!

Although our room didn’t have one, they offer in-room Jacuzzi tubs and a cute  heated outdoor pool.  They offer non-smoking only double and single bed guest rooms,  on-site laundry facilities, business center, and a nice variety in their seasonal continental breakfast. They also offer in-room coffee makers, high-speed wireless Internet (which was a bit spotty in connection), A/C and heating units, and convenient front door parking.
