This was a very nice boutique motel in a very small town. The room was very well appointed and the man at reception was very helpful with information about the local area.

Worst property we have stayed at in a long time. After a day of hiking in the national monument we arrived to check in but no staff were on site in the office. there was a sign taped to the window with a number to call if we needed assistance. we had to call about 5 times over the course of 30 min before we finally got an answer and they provided a code to check into the room. The room at first glance was okay…shower was very dirty and there was no soap and the body wash dispenser was completely out so we had to end up driving into town to find soap to shower with. we attempted contacting the number on the sign bc we decided we wanted to check out early and cancel our second nights stay. we tried all night with no answer. the property ended up charging us the second night staying we didn’t cancel in time, however, there was nobody physically there in person the over 24 hours we were there and did not answer the phone except the one time when we got the code to check in. the wifi barely worked and there were dead bugs in all the corners of the room and bathroom. do yourself a favor and find another place to stay if you want a good experience. finally got ahold of the property manager a week after our stay to attempt to resolve the issue for being charged the second night when we attempted to check out and they refused. terrible customer service - rather no service at all bc there was no one there working for our full day/nights stay.

We only stayed one night, but it was great. They communicated well with us even though we were not arriving until fairly late. The restaurant there had amazing breakfast as well as wonderful mochas. We loved it!

The motel is not bad. Very clean. Good location. The rooms are large, although they require a little updating. A big plus is the laminate flooring. The water in the bathroom drain well. One significant drawback is that rooms 11 to 21 are not covered by the Internet router. I had to use the phone as a modem.
