I love staying at these old Motor Court motels when I travel cross country on my motorcycle. I love that you can park outside your room. This place is super-cool with it's updated mid-century modern vibe. The proprietor & staff were awesome as well. Great place to stop for a night as you pass through!

Wonderful place to stay.

What an adorable place to stay. The room was very clean and comfortable. The decor was very well planned, mid century modern/pin-up oriented. The front desk staff was very friendly. The coffees from the front desk coffee shop were delicious too. I would definitely stay here again.

Great little place in Monticello UT. We had a king room a bit farther from the road which is a good idea. Good price, spotless room, excellent staff.

Property was very clean, staff is nice, the room was very quiet. Perfect area for part of Canyonlands National Park and Newspaper Rock. The only complaints I have is very limited food options, we ended up just grabbing sandwich supplies from the grocery store, and the beds were super firm I prefer a softer bed.

Very nice and unique Motel with the best coffee so far :-) Walkable dining options and very helpful staff - they also have a cute little shop for souvenirs! Rooms are clean and pretty big - comfortable beds :-) I would recommend a different room spray - but that’s just me :-))

Quaint and well-kept affordable roadside motel with cabins. Some noise from passing trucks, but not bad. Perfect for solo or couple travelers.

What a nice surprise. I booked this off of Expedia not knowing what to expect. The staff was extremely friendly. The rooms are massive and well appointed. The grounds were a little difficult for us, mostly because we have mobility issues. I really couldn't find a safe place to take my service dog out, because the ground was too uneven.

Friendly, clean, cheap, and cool!

Friendly staff at both check-in and check-out, great recommendations for local eats, a clean and comfortable room, all at a great price. This was just a quick sleepover after a long drive and before week of outdoors on wilderness adventures, so it was perfect for us. Love the logo and theme; y'all should sell teeshirts and such.
