Somewhere between Colorado Springs and Canon City is a little wide spot along the road called Florence. I can't say much about Florence, other than it's between Colorado Springs and Canon City...so, if you have activities planned in both locations, this is a (fairly) happy medium. There aren't a lot of hotel choices ( it's Florence, after all) but if you want to be in an out of the way spot just down the road from an industrial area, surrounded by prarie and sage brush...this is your place. Call it a base camp without actually being a camp site. It's got walls, a roof, A/C, TV and indoor plumbing...it even has a version of a continental breakfast. So, if you're going to spend a lot of time going back and forth between Canon City and CO Springs, and actually DOING SOMETHING there, and NOT spending a lot of time at the hotel and just want a place to crash at the end of the day that doesn't cost a lot ( and remember that you get what you pay for...or don't get what you don't pay for) then give it a shot. At least you can say you heard the coyotes in the hills. Just don't wear white socks when walking on the carpet...and keep all foot wounds bandaged. Personally, if I had it to do over again...I'd stay in Canon City at one of the hotels with a pool and a nicer breakfast, and not worry about being centrally located between the two places.

We loved our stay except the maid forgot to touch our room! We didn't get clean linens or towels and didn't get coffee for our room for our second day.

Lobby was so smoky we would have left if it wasn't the only place in town. Room was fairly clean but the bed was original-motel is about 15 years old...pillows seemed that old as well. Requested additional pillows 2nd night...they were a little better. Even though room was non smoking, sheets smelled of smoke. Hall and lobby were smoke filled 24/7. Young housekeepers did a great job. Continental breakfast was minimal. Coffee pots and juice decanters weren't very clean. Rooms could use a major overhall. Super Max federal prison is just up the street.
