We arrived in Moab on a Saturday afternoon and all the Motels in town were 120 $ up. The Riverside Motel is about 1.5 miles out of town and was the best choice ever. For 79$ we had a very nice Pool with Jacuzzi, a clean and comfort room and breakfast included! I will go there again during my next visit in Moab. For sure!

The hotel is clean, the breakfast generous, the price reasonable for Moab and when a problem over which he had no control arose at 3am, manager Jung went out of his way to accommodate us. We would definitely recommend the hotel to other travelers and stay here again ourselves.

We stayed for two nights. The staff was professional and helpful. The location was close to the Arch National Park,( only 3 miles away).The the breakfast were good coffee Comfortable room, We have great stay.

My friend and I stayed at the Riverside Inn in Moab, Utah and had a VERY CREEPY and INHOSPITABLE experience. This is what happened:

(1) We had just woke up, left the bathroom returning to the bed and discovered A HUGE SPIDER right on the bed we just left !!!!!! The OWNER IS TOO CHEAP TO AIR CONDITION THE HALLWAYS so the hallway doors are left wide open on the first floor - letting in all the bugs, etc. Our spider was so big and tough that the bug spray couldn't kill it. We had to squash it with a newspaper. We didn't know squashing it would cause the SPIDER TO GIVE BIRTH TO HUNDREDS OF BABY SPIDERS RIGHT THERE ON THE BED!!!! It makes me itchy just thinking about this.

(2) When you are looking for spiders don't bother looking for a Welcome Mat - It's Gone! I doubt they ever had one. But you can't miss all of the RUDE SIGNS posted throughout the place telling you to "DO THIS" and "DO THAT" or "DON'T DO THIS" and "DON'T DO THAT". The frowning, GRUMPY FRONT DESK PEOPLE act like they are DOING YOU A FAVOR to do their job. This is why we started calling the Riverside Inn the "Get the F out of Here Hotel".

(3) Normally at a decent hotel you would find a working swimming pool for their guests - especially when it is a major holiday weekend with weather in the 90's . Not at the Riverside Inn - there you have another sign - this one said POOL CLOSED. I believe that the owner purposely closed the pool so he wouldn't have to clean the pool before or after the guests used it.

When we booked this hotel we were looking for an inexpensive place to stay for 2 nights over Labor Day Weekend (Total $192 for 2 nights). Well, we weren't expecting a 5 star resort but at least it should have been inhabitable (for humans) for $96/night !

My recommendation is to stay somewhere else in Moab. I have attached some pictures of the parks in the area. Only if you're desperate and falling asleep at the wheel would I say to stop here!!!! I hope you enjoy the town of Moab and the breathtaking scenery in Southern Utah BUT just keep ON DRIVING PAST the Riverside Inn - otherwise known as the "Get the F Out of Here Hotel" !
