Decent location right off the highway. Single story park next to the room. TV small but OK, beds decent. We only stayed one night so quick in and out the next morning. I would stay there again.

I like the easy access, parking available, continental breakfast included, direct tv. Quiet and many restaurants near by. I did not like the remote for tv have to get very close to tv in order to work, did not like the shower very poor finish, have to go next door for breakfast.

Clean and simple accommodations. I especially liked/used the swimming pools and spa for recovery after running the St. George marathon.

We booked the king bed room in November mid week for an obscenely low price. I think £36. While yes, the motel has seen better days, we are just two people on a tight budget camping our way across the country, occasionally in need of a shower and a kitchen. For us, this was the absolute best motel we could’ve hoped for. With a couch area, comfy bed, working bathroom appliances and a kitchen, it was wonderful.

The check-in process was straightforward enough. The room was clean and spacious with a little kitchen and full size fridge. The room seemed to have a little weird smell but it was tolerable. The breakfast consisted of the typical waffles, cereal, juice, coffee, milk. Not great but I guess you get what you pay for.

This is a very run down aged hotel. We reserved a non smoking room but we could smell smoke and there were actual cigarette burns on the bedspread. Our remote control did not work. There was not much water pressure in the shower. Our room was cold and we could see a gap around the door. The security chain was missing. I do not recommend this property. There were many simple updates or repairs that could be made to improve the room.

It was fun to stay in a vintage motel! The vibe was really cute. Super close to downtown and the university. It was very simple but that’s all we needed for a quick overnight stay. It was very clean, the checkin/checkout was painless, a/c worked great, etc. Breakfast was only waffles and drinks but it was enough to get us back on the road.

We booked two rooms with two queen beds but they only had double beds. They arranged for us to have rooms with queen beds at a neighboring motel they also own. The workers were all very kind but it was a very run down motel. Limited food options for breakfast. It was inexpensive so I guess we got what we paid for.
