Desert Gardens Cottages consist of a duplex and stand-alone unit on the same lot. They're located two blocks from Main Street and about two feet behind an old cement block storage building. The units themselves are old and constructed partially of concrete blocks. Moab Lodging will tell you they are air conditioned, but don't believe it. The unit we were in, which was the stand-alone unit, was cooled by an old evaporation system that was very ineffective. They tell you to turn the unit on, close off any rooms you're not using,and open a window in the rooms you want cooled. Never mind that it's 104 degrees out there! The furnishings were adequate. There was a small sitting room with a sofa and loveseat and small TV. There was a dining area and small kitchen. The bathroom was small but newer. The bedroom was large enough for a queen bed and two small nightstands. The dresser was located in a closet who's doors had been removed. The second bedroom had two twin beds and no windows. We closed that room off as we weren't using it. There was absolutely NO air circulating in either bedroom. Some of the light bulbs in the lamps and light fixtures we're burned out. The yard is sort of fenced and the lawn is grassy. There is a hot tub for guest use. There is a no pet policy but when we were there the occupants of one of the units had a large dog. I'm not sure they were guests as the car was marked Moab Lodging. It seemed as though the employees of Moab Lodging were living in the other units. The city of Moab is very busy with a lot of activity at all times.
