We stayed here for five nights and we loved it. There’s so much to do around Moab and easy to get to the parks from the river Canyon lodge. They have a free shuttle on Main Street although we did not use that. Any different restaurants and very easy parking in a huge parking lot.

Staff were very pleasant and helpful. The reception lobby was very comfortable with chairs and fire place for an evening nightcap with friends. Rooms were clean and well appointed. Be aware the elevator is not working. It was not a problem for us but may be for some.

My husband and I stayed here for 6 days and it was awesome. Love the place and its location. It was very convenient going to downtown and the Food Truck Park. There’s also a laundromat close by. I love that there’s coffee and tea at the lobby and that they have ice machine at every floor and a water refilling at the lobby as well. Will definitely stay there when we go back to Moab!
