Planning advice
- Review Summary
- Mixed reviews: families like the pool and breakfast; concerns about staff attitude, cleanliness, and noise from thin walls.
- The Honest Truth
- Not a luxury stay. Some rooms feel dusty and dated; check-in can come across as unfriendly. The pool and breakfast are real wins for families, but cleanliness and noise from thin walls can be a problem.
- Room Insider Tips
- Ask for back building away from the highway; if possible, request a higher floor to reduce noise; verify AC functionality upon check-in.
- Pro Tip Booking
- Book early; request a room in the back building; plan for Arches timed-entry; pair with Moab coffee runs.
- Your Morning Game Plan
- Moab coffee run first. 15–20 minutes to park entrance. Leave by 6:40 AM to beat the rush.
- Best Time To Visit
- Spring (April–May) and Fall (September–October) when temps are comfortable.
- Pro Tips
- Timed-entry reservations via Recreation.gov for Arches; book early.
- Free on-site parking, but spaces are tight—arrive early.
- Breakfast on-site helps save cash; pair with Moab coffee runs.
