If it was the finest, then the stock of hotel rooms in Ft. Morgan was rather scant. A few strolls up and down the streets courtesy of Google revealed a "Queen Lounge," and yelping that yields:
Originally built around the turn of the century, it was an implement store. Then in the 1930's, it was converted to the finest Hotel in Eastern Colorado. In 1980, it became the Queen Lounge. Benefiting from the spectacular interior lobby of the hotel, this is a drink parlor of distinction!
So it was the finest. The lobby can be seen here.
Apparently it was popular with drummers, if the matchboom is any indication. Or guys with huge hats.
