Being a rustic lodge motel, it was pretty much what we expected…clean, comfortable, but very dark rooms.

The room was spacious and clean. Air conditioning worked great on hot days. Slept well. Was off the road just enough to be quiet but still close to everything.

It’s a cute motel right by the Natural Bridges State Park. There is a good pizza place, a Mexican Restaurant, a coffee shop, and ice cream shop nearby, as well as other shopping. Room was clean and had a fridge and microwave and WiFi. A little musty but ok. After hours (4 pm) your key is in a clear box in an envelope with your name on it in the front of a building that’s a strip mall which seemed a little too trusting to me. The office door is off property and is locked with a sign saying employees only. Beautiful area!
