Friendly, helpful & welcoming front desk staff! Although our room obviously needed a new sink & the air conditioner was weak, our stay was comfortable & quiet. We would stay here again.

The staff was very kind even though we had a very late check in after a wedding. They were pleasant and helpful. The room was clean and beds were nice. It was a great place to stop and rest after a long day celebrating at a wedding.

This is an absolutely charming place. Upon check-in, we had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who was incredibly kind and welcoming—even accommodating our late arrival with warmth and hospitality. The motel was clean, and the beds were very comfortable. I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a pleasant and comfortable stay.

A good overnight stop during our journey. Older hotel but clean and nice to park right outside room. Street noise can be irritating so will request a room further back on next visit. Can walk to mexican restaurant across the street. Food and service were good. Town is much less frantic than Moab and hotels less costly. We will overnight here again in the future.
