No doubt they have the best, top-notch, super nice staff! Although we stayed for just one night, we loved our stay. My only recommendation for management is that I think some things need to be updated, like the showerheads, bedding, and pillows. Not a complaint, just a suggestion! The rooms were very spacious and we loved the location nice view and very quiet—only 12 miles from the Forrest Gump movie spot and Monument Valley. I will book again for sure.

The motel is older, but maintained quite well. We had a two bedroom unit and the AC was in the back bedroom. It cooled both rooms. There was no coffee maker in the room, but guest could get free coffee and tea at the restaurant on site. If you go to the restaurant, order the fry bread it was the best fry bread I’ve ever tasted. Also visit the trading post. They were extremely well priced with their items. I would stay here again, the view was beautiful.

This Inn was a lovely hotel well located to visit Monument Valley. It was nice that it also had an onsite restaurant and supplied free fresh coffee or tea in the morning. There were also laundry facilities available that was convenient right when we needed to wash some clothes.
