Love this place, second multi-night stay in last year/two. Proximity to Canyonlands Needles and Island in the Sky districts a plus. All the essentials. We'll be back asap.

Super clean, Nostalgic place!! Comfortable, quiet place to Rest your Head. Very worth the drive south from the craziness of Moab. Great little town, wonderful front desk and housekeepers!!!!! Also loved the beds, hot shower and choices of TV shows. Thank you for a great stay.

A true hidden gem. If you like to retro atmosphere

It's a fantastic cute little retro hotel. Fantastic espresso on the premises. Close to several good restaurants including fantastic Mexican food. Check out Gustavo's.

Our room was spotlessly clean and well equipped. My only complaint--and it is minor--this is an old building and the rooms were small--not bad but smaller than we'd like.

Good choice

A very good choice. Clean, quiet. Yes, it is quiet in spite of being on the main drag with passing traffic. Room is nicely equipped with fridge, microwave, coffee maker and coffee is also provided in the morning in the lobby. The only glitch, which had no real impact on my stay, was that many of the tv channels had poor-quality image.
