Clean, safe place to stay while visiting Escalante. Check-in was very quick and easy. The room was spacious; the only thing that would have been helpful is any counter space in the bathroom. Also, a full length mirror would be a great addition too. Would stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Our room was clean and comfortable. The desk clerk was very kind and capable. This motel is an updated but old motel. The carpet, furniture and paint looked new. The bathroom sink was tired. The bathroom was as tiny as I have ever seen with a shower, toilet and sink in the smallest possible space. That said, it beats camping and in this part of the world with so much beauty to see outside, we were happy for a comfy bed between outdoor adventures.
