Lovely room. Very comfortable and clean. Meal options were limited but the hotel had a restaurant that was good. This place is a quieter option to staying at Springdale, UT. We visited Bryce and Zion from this location.

Stay was mid but not bad

Overall it was a good stay. The only complaint was everything around the hotel was dead after 9pm. Also the radiant heater kept repeatedly popping when cooling off and heating up. Woke me up at 3 am.
