Even Manning would drool over this place.
After a thorough tour of fabulous Raton, NM, the clear lodging choice for us was the Colt Motel. Things only got better after we pulled in and realized the rooms have individual carports. Additionally, the guy in the office had a sweet British accent, the room is spacious and well accomodated (mini-fridge, coffee maker, iron, free wi-fi, cushy chair) and the RATES ARE LOW. REAL LOW. Forty-two bucks got us kickin' at the Colt. Straight up. We're from the southeast, but I'd drive out here again to visit and stay at the only place worth its weight- THE COLT.
