Only real issue was staff related. Also - they are not fond of people booking via Expedia. Proprietor refused to issue a receipt upon checkout. They require a credit card number to check in, "for incidentals", although the room was prepaid. When I asked for a zeroed out receipt upon check-out the proprietor refused to issue one. The first hotel I have ever stayed in that would not issue a zeroed out receipt. After I asked to take a video of the room for my own record, they emailed me a hand written note stating no charges were incurred. Overall a nice clean property, I am not sure why it was such a challenge to get a final receipt. If you require a paper trail, this hotel is not recommended.

What a find. Was going to stop in grand junction until i saw the price of hotels and parking charges. Green River is such a lovely quiet town. Hotel has a lovely funky lobby. Guy who checked me in was nice and friendly. Truckers use this hotel due to its location. Room was very comfortable though i had a view of the enterance arch so no actual sunlight but was only passing through. Good coffee in the lobby amd breakfast was waffles and usual motel fair. Checked out the "ratio" if you can. Also can go a little off road on BLM land and see the "geyser". Not really anywhere to eat so went to the Arbys at the gas station. Good luck with little ceasers as they are always closed it seams. The river is just stunning ti look at. Will stay here again if heading this way.
