Cortez was well located on my driving route. The town offered a good variety of dining options and was an attractive little town with good fuel options as well. One note on dining is that many restaurants shut down at 9PM, so plan accordingly.

Small town, but they do have all the conveniences. We like the proximity to Four Corners, Hovenweep, Mesa Verde, and other Puebloan cultural and historical sites

Cortez is such a cool town. It feels trapped in time and a slower pace of life, but with all the modern conveniences you could want.

Great place to stay if you're visiting Mesa Verde or stopping over on the way to Moab.
"We always stay at the Retro Inn while coming through Cortez (going on 22 years!). Staff always friendly. Rooms always clean and comfortable. Pet friendly!!! They just put in a small dog run. Perfect!"
"Decent property. Great staff, especially Ed. After checking in, we found out shower/bath wasn't working and they apologetically moved us without hesitation. In the meantime, my son checked out the hot tub and pool which had leaves and some papers in, just from a typical day I'm sure. I mentioned it to Ed and he hustled to clean it. Good guy!"
