Andrew (our host) made us feel welcome. Rico is relatively close to Telluride, and the Mine Shaft Inn is certainly a better value for the money compared to anything you will find in Telluride.

Great little gem!

We enjoyed just about everything here. Great breakfast, unique, clean and comfortable. Great wifi(Starlink). The only thing that could make it perfect is darker or blackout curtains.

Wonderful Small Town Accommodations

I've stayed here multiple times and love it. Great service and hospitality, yummy breakfast, a home away from home, comfy, amazing location, and the building itself is a historic treasure. Definitely will stay again!
