Two nights here in May. Can't complain about this place at all. And a new resident manger, Janice, is a real sweetheart! Former manager and still owner, Verda, has relinquished mgmt duties. I hope things stay as they are for a long time. You can't go wrong here.

I can't believe the rate was <$70 / night, as the rooms were great.

We ended up getting a room here after Esc. Outfitters messed up our reservation. The lady that runs the front desk is incredibly lovely and was VERY helpful to our family. Yes, the motel is old school, but the rooms are big and neat as a pin, the heat works great, the beds are comfy and the showers had plenty... More

We enjoyed this motel. We got a room on the back. It was quiet, clean, not fancy, but real nice for that part of the country. We walked two doors down to a great pizza/sandwich/bakery/store, Escalante Outfitters, for dinner and breakfast. I ate and shopped at the same time. They have some very neat stuff for sale, and the food... More

Stayed here for just one night on our way to Bryce canyon. We asked for a room at the far end of the motel away from the road and the receptionist gave us the one from the end. We had no noise all night till the next morning when we realised that the very end room is used for cleaning... More

Good location as a stopover for Bryce Canyon. Very near local restaurants. Very large rooms - ours had 2 queen beds. Slightly odd having the wash basin and mirror in the main bedroom, rather than in the toilet/bathroom, but not a problem if you're sharing with someone you're close to. Easy parking and fast check-in.

Stayed for three nights. Everything the same as last year. Will stay again. Would be better if they had a pool.
