For the price it was not worth it. There is no coffee in room if you want coffee you can go to restaurant for it . No breakfast is served . No deadbolt lock room had a musty smell.

One of the better options to stay if you are visiting the Monument Valley National Park. Nothing much to say about the rooms, they were clean and spacious. We didn’t have any concern with the room or the bathrooms. Rooms have nice view and seating area outside. The biggest advantage of staying here is the view and the location. It is location on the banks of the San Juan river and the property is a cute blob on the extremely beautiful scenic background. Beautifully managed patio seating areas by the river. Separate smoking area. Pathway to walk down the river. Sweet and cute cats around. Coffee and microwave oven is available in the common area adjacent to the San Juan cafe. Staff were very friendly, informative and well behaved. Even when we were checking out, I left my AirPod in the room, they immediately notified me and made sure I get it before I completely move out.

This was a very unique hotel. There was some construction going on, but not while we were there. The staff was really nice. We were surprised that our 2 queen beds had a wall between them.

Friendly service, clean & comfortable room. We enjoyed the easy walk down to the San Juan River and pretty views of the area. Best of all, two friendly cats greeted us & made quick friends! Easy access from here to Moki Dugway, Muley Point, and Valley of the Gods.

Fantastic location, atop the gorge on the San Juan river. Beautiful views from the property - which was clean and spacious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There is a restaurant on the property and a gas station/convenience store just up the hill (1 min drive away).

It was a nightmare as no one was there for the hotel. I had to call to get a room. There was a stranger roaming around. We ended up leaving as we fearful to stay with no security and literally no one from the hotel there at all! Absolutely horrible experience!

Lovely area

I get this a low rating not because we didn’t enjoy this day. We really did enjoy the stay. It needs a little more upkeep. The surrounding area is wonderful. It feels like it’s built into the side of the cliff. I’m sure it’s a day. It was an absolute five star but right now it needs a little care. The restaurant on the site said it was open. It wasn’t the front desk took us nearly 15 minutes to get someone to come to the door we requested a downstairs we got an upstairs. The person that checked to him was pleasant and very likable. But I would say be prepared for a little inconvenience, but we are taking a trip to be in the moment and we enjoyed the stay.
