The owner checked us in and was very helpful and friendly. Towels were thick and fluffy. Excellent bed linens and pillows. Great to see an “older” motel provide such excellent service and value. We will definitely stay there again.
Excellent, as always. Clean, comfortable rooms, with a friendly staff. Now there is a handy fast food diner next door, with great burgers and other meal options. I love this place.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Well stocked & inviting room. Friendly front desk staff.
We were greeted by a super nice behind the counter and he was super, friendly and courteous and gave us where to eat information. The room was better than I expected, clean and so retro cute. The Rosie box is adorable. Needed a hand lotion in the room and another hand towel, 1 isn’t enough. Need was comfortable. We were close to the road and that noise was bearable. I would definitely stay here again.
This witty refresh of a traditional motel is just fun! Love the colors. Easy walk to several dining options. Comfortable bed, shower with plenty of hot water and pressure. Only downside is traffic noise if room faces street.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was very clean. Hotel was on a highway and was noisy all night with trucks, other than that it was a good place for the night. Good deal for the $$
This is a fun place to stay for a night or two. Clean rooms decorated with retro 50's-60's stuff. Surprisingly not noisy at all given its location directly off the main drag. Slept like a stone. Solid walls kept the noise outside. Easy parking right in front of your door makes for quick unpacking and packing. Friendly helpful staff. a couple of very good eateries with short walking distance. Reasonably priced and very near the golf course.
Clean cute room, comfortable bed, nice staff but nonstop traffic on the road. I searched Moab, after I booked i realized this property is one hour from Moab.
