We loved the 50's vibe. The room was clean, nicely decorated in a retro style, and the updates were very well done. Pretty much no frills, but the rate was good, and the office staff was very nice.

Clean and comfortable

Friendly and helpful staff at front desk. Right along main road through town so a little noisy. Strong perfume smell from cleaning chemicals or air fresheners May be an issue for those with chemical sensitivity. Okay for a overnight while passing through

Liked: Cleanliness
It could've been so much better. The location was great... but the location of my room was not. I was in one of 3 or 4 rooms right off the main road thru town. It was noisy and annoying. I had to have the AC on the entire time to drown out the noise. The room was clean and nice. There was a mini fridge and microwave... the bathroom was clean. I think my biggest complaint was that the only place to sit was horrendous little plastic chair that looked like it belonged in a children's playroom. It was extremely uncomfortable...

It was a great experience! I loved the room - they really went all out to make the rooms functional and clean. Definitely worth the price. One small piece of advice - reserve with the hotel itself - they have better prices than the travel websites.

Everything was clean & I loved being able to park right by my room. The bed wasn't comfy enough for me but I like a soft bed. If I stay ever again I will bring my rollup latex mattress topper. My back was sore when I got up. Other than that, it was an awesome place to stay!

Vintage roadside motel lovingly redone in '50s and '60s chic. QUIET interior in spite of location on truck-busy highway crossroads. Comfortable bed. Room updated and maintained beautifully. Convenient key drop for early risers. Only minor negative is few food options in town in winter (one pizza place and a Thai restaurant)--research before you go. Eat in Moab where all the restaurants are (30 min away), but definitely stay here in Monticello!
