The desk clerk was friendly. But she failed to tell me that they didn't serve breakfast, even though it says so on the website. Parking was good. The room was clean, but when I got out of the shower, every towel on the shelf was stained. For the price, I expected alot better!!

The staff was great. The parking lot was convenient but could use a little clean up. The room was nice. The towels were clean but stained. It was close to the national park ,gas and food. Overall, it was a good experience. The best thing to me was the shower was excellent ( good pressure, temperature and clean).
