Wonderful place, rooms were big and clean. Bed soft and the breakfast was good. The grounds are a bit run down and could use some sprucing up.

We loved the Retro Inn! My kids especially loved the game room and big chess set. We ate just down the road at lounging lizard which they recommended and it was delish. Would recommend Retro Inn if you are looking for something unique to Cortez.
