The hotel has permanent residents, mostly it seems on the second floor, our upstairs neighbor did the fandango around 4am. Free breakfast was chips and we were offered a sausage sandwich. We declined left and had breakfast elsewhere. Staff was very nice though.
The staff was very knowledgeable, courteous and friendly. Went out of their way to insure our stay was everything we hoped. The food in their restaurant was always freshly prepared and the portions commendable. Highly recommend this Inn to all travelers.
People live here and there are stay pets aplenty. Use that information as you will. Our first room did not have a light and one of the two beds was unmade. Yuck. Because my reservation was non-refundable I asked for another room. The attendant apologized and 'upgraded' us to a suite in a different area of the hotel. All rooms for guests should be in this other area. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. The tv was on when we arrived but we were exhausted so I don't know what that means. The hallway AC made noise all night. I would only stay here again in an emergency.
Fantastic service. Staff was super friendly and helpful. It was late and I did have some problems finding the front desk (Thought it was the restaurant entrance) but the owners saw me in the parking lot and got me where I needed to be.
Easy check in and check out! Over fantastic place to stay!!!
We had a wonderful stay! We ended up needing a different room our second night there and they were so understanding and got us a different room right away! We will definitely stay there again!

My second time staying at the La Junta Inn. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. My only complaint is that when I tried to adjust the shower head (so it wasn’t spraying outside the shower), the whole thing came off in my hand.
