Room was perfectly quaint, and warm, the beds very comfy, shower was nice. On the pet friendly side 10/10 totally hassle free and they left treats which was a sweet touch. They called multiple times ensuring we would be able to enter our room even after office hours. Super simple visit, very appreciated!
They need 10 stars ! Huge clean rooms, affordable prices, warm comfy beds and super peaceful. The owner and manager are amazing, they are the nicest people I have come across in a long time. They also serve a lite breakfast with tea, coffee or cocoa but if your looking for something a little extra there is a tasty coffee stand on the property.
My team driver and I stopped here for the night. The gentleman I spoke to had everything ready for me when I got here the room was already paid for the key was left for me in a safe place because as it was 1:30 in the morning. The beds are super comfortable very nice towels. VERY QUIET!!! It's an older hotel but what a gem!! Will be back for sure. Thank you for your hospitality! And Mr. Caleb your story is beautiful
A hidden gem. The Inn has clean, well supplied rooms. There is a small grocery store across the street and a couple of cute places to eat around the corner. It was so quiet and peaceful my dog had her best night of sleep on the whole road trip. The coffee is good, the staff is attentive and kind. If you are headed towards Moab its a great choice, if you find yourself in Monticello then please just drive to the state line and stay in Dove Creek instead.
I would give this place a 10 star if I could. The room was very spacious and super clean. Caleb was super kind and very helpful. I couldn’t make it anymore driving and they accommodated my big family and my pets. Food is right across the street which was super convenient. If you plan on staying there, tell Caleb I said Hi. He’s a great guy and ask him about his adventure across the country. Amazing!!!!
The place was super quiet. To make a reservation over the phone was fast sinple and easy. The owner made it very comfortable to stay there. I love every minute of being there. As well as for the room there was a roku tv so you can sign in and watch anything that you want. The prices was very affordable. I loved it absolutely 10 out of 10. Recommend
I just wanted to leave my opinion. I stayed last here last night and I was pretty surprised. It was super neat and clean. Very quiet and the owner was so nice. He left us waters in the fridge. The beds were nice. The room was prewarmed. I would definitely recommend staying here. I will definitely be staying here again if and when I pass through.
This is a cute place to stay, right on the main road. Caleb was so nice, had left waters for us in the fridge and had the heater on so it was warm when we arrived. He even upgraded us to a larger room at no cost. The room was very clean and was larger than I expected. A good place to stay. Plus there's a food truck in the big parking lot that has good breakfast items, etc.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
