Although compact the room had everything we needed including a refrigerator with a freezer. The shower was great with plenty of hot water with good pressure and the showerhead was at the perfect height. It was very convenient to Bryce Canyon and the coffee shop and pizza place across the street had good food. The only down side was that the air conditioner unit was incredibly noisy and made it difficult to sleep.

The proprietor was wonderful and so helpful! We developed car problems and he helped us in finding someone to work on it. The room is simple but clean and comfortable and had everything we needed, including microwave, refrigerator, great bed, lots of hot water and nice shower. Can't recommend it enough!

Had a very nice evening at Bybee’s Steppingstone Inn. The owner/operator was super friendly, providing us all the essential information we needed. The room was clean and comfortable and the grounds made you feel right at home. It’s a stone’s throw from Bryce Canyon so it’s a great option for those who don’t want to stay in Bryce Canyon City.

For a little town like Tropic, this property was amazing. Location right on the main road to Bryce and very near. Very clean and the amount of space was very efficiently utilized for conveniene. Given the limited dining options in the town, this property can consider adding breakfast service!
