Dinosaur Inn is the best-run hotel I have visited this year. The suite was perfect. The furniture in the suite looked like it was new. The entire facility was clean and organized. The staff served a variety of breakfast items from their menu. It felt like home away from home. We plan to book again the next time we visit Vernal, Utah.
