    Creekside patio

    We were spending a long weekend in Moab and booked here. Our creekside room was beautiful and we enjoyed the patio overlooking the creek and bike path.

    Pool area with desert views.

    This place is so cool! It has a funky southwest vibe that is affordable and close to everything this desert town has to offer. The service is A+, balcony views to die for, and is very well kept! We stumbled across this place on booking.com and so glad we did!

    Coffee pot

    From the second we were greeted, the whole check in process was outstanding. Deniz was so kind and informative- told us where everything was and gave us recommendations for around town. Room is clean and spacious with everything you need! Definitely stay here over the main stream places if you can!

    This was a really cute spot right in downtown. There's a pool and hot tub but the pool is NOT HEATED and it is not open during fall/winter. My room was clean. Every room feels like a little condo because it comes with a little patio. They give you a breakfast voucher for each day you stay which gets you breakfast at the cafe at the Gonzo. The food was good but mediocre, mostly breakfast sandwiches and pastries. There's way better food elsewhere if you've got dough to spend and time, but this was still a great deal. The room was clean and the bed was probably the most comfy bed i've ever slept int including my own bed. There's a patio with a fire pit. It's very close to the main strip in downtown and a drug/grocery store so you don't need to drive for anything. The staff are SO FRIENDLY. I'm only giving 4 stars because the walls are very thin and you hear EVERYTHING. They allow dogs which is great for folks with dogs but not great for people who want some peace and quiet. If you're a light sleeper- bring ear plugs and a sound machine or sleep with noise canceling headphones.

    Can't wait to come back!

    See all

They had no written or documentation of this when we reserved our room. We have stayed here once before. And we're never charged this. Rooms are clean but the tub drained so slow that you had to wait before the next person could shower. The beds were so lumpy and uncomfortable also. The only reason we are giving 3 stars is do to the friendly staff. Also we spent the night and morning listening to all the doors slamming shut. They need to fix this because people don't care to be quiet.

The staff was super friendly (as I've experienced with most BWs) and we felt very comfortable and safe. Didn't love the tile flooring, but figured thats due to the sandy location. I would 100% recommend staying here....however my lesson learned/PRO TIP moving forward in booking any hotel is to ask for a non connecting room and/or to not be next to anyone. We had a connecting room with a dude, let's call him "Ralph," who came in REAL hot around 1030 PM amd proceeded to spend the next hour moaning right next to our door. We didn't know if he was having sex or pooping until he began to violently throw up. We tried to drown it out with the AC, but ended up calling the front desk to switch rooms. They were so accommodating and even tried to check on Ralph (lesson learned drinking and dehydration is a real thing). Moral of this short blib- walls are thin and I am a light sleeper. The hotel handled the situation perfectly... but from now on I will be requesting to be tucked away in a solo room away from the wild ones :)

At the same time, it's not, like, a totally awesome hotel option. The buffet is a little uninspiring, and they frequently run out of coffee and you may have to wait ten minutes for it to reappear. The pool is small and crowded. During the course of our stay they had no cots or rollaway beds for our room. They layout of the room was a little odd. The bathroom didn't have a fan, and so the whole room developed a kind of locker-room odor over the course of our four-night stay. Overall, my impression is that this is the kind of hotel where they never give you anything more than the experience you paid for. On the other hand, they don't give you anything LESS than the experience you paid for, and that is nothing to be taken for granted. It's like a Hanes t-shirt. It does the job.

We usually travel with a pretty large group of 6-7 people. (Yep, 6-7!) So the casitas fit the bill perfectly. There was a nice full size kitchen downstairs, with a pullout bed option in the sitting area. There was a little dining room table as well. Upstairs there were multiple bedrooms with pretty comfortable beds and pillows. The bathrooms were also nice and the showers were powerful which is always a huge plus at any hotel. It also had a really nice pool area with a neat little whirlpool section that the kids really enjoyed. Everything was updated and modern so it was very enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again.

This is a dog friendly, kid friendly resort, very close to the downtown area of Moab for easy access to shops and restaurants. This place is perfectly placed and beautifully built. The rooms were clean as were the bathrooms. Room service was very nice about taking all the trash and cleaning up the dishes. I only had one complaint and it was a fairly large one. The mattress in the king bedroom was lumpy and super uncomfortable. I spent 2 nights on it before my back completely rebelled. When I addressed this with the front desk, they offered a mattress topper to even out the lumps and this was a very good solution. I still highly recommend this place and would suggest to review the mattress right away if you have back issues - and it is for this reason I took off one star.

It's a short drive into town, but you will have to find parking in town, etc. The rooms are quite spacious as there is a separate sitting area with a couch, coffee table and desk, and the room is large enough to have two TVs (but you should be watching the same thing since the areas open up to each other). Breakfast in the lobby can be hectic as everybody is rushing to get out to Arches. I appreciate that they try to mix things up so you don't have the same proteins every day. They also have the standard selections: make-your-own waffles, oatmeal, greek yogurt + toppings, eggs, meat protein, breads (English muffins, bagels, slices of bread), peanut butter, jelly, cereals, etc. The hotel can be a bit loud as the pool closes to kids at 10p but is still open for adults until 11p, and our room faced the pool. There are no restaurants on premises but you can order room service from the Springhill Suites. There are other shared services with the Springhill Suites including a shared pool. The location is excellent for Arches - only about a 5 minute drive away.

Turning out of the parking lot and onto the road was a little tricky at times because of the fast traffic. The hotel is really nice! The beds are soft and comfortable, pillows are comfortable. Rooms are spacious, and are nicely decorated. They have a fridge and microwave. Pool and hot tub was great, perfect temperature. The hotel provided pool towels. Nice fire pit and seating area in the back. There is also barbecue grills. There was plenty of parking at the front and behind the hotel. Breakfast was good, not great. I eat low carb, and most of breakfast is loaded with carbs! The eggs and sausage were good. Wish they had provided salsa and some shredded cheese, but they didn't. They had cream cheese, which was a little bland. They also had butter. The other options are waffles, syrup, cereal, muffins, bagels, yogurt, granola, bread. Drinks: apple juice and a fruit juice, coffee. The biggest issue for us was the road noise at night. In our room we could hear the traffic sounds all night. All kinds of vehicles drove by and were loud. I had a sound machine and ear plugs and had a difficult time sleeping. I'm a light sleeper, so I was up most of the night. Room to room we didn't hear much noise. We could hear the doors closing in the morning starting at 6:30 am. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful. There was one guy helping with breakfast that was talking and chatting on his phone the whole time while working and that was a little annoying! Overall it was good.

First of all, I had no idea Moab had a town with a thriving nightlife of shops and restaurants! This hotel sat right at the edge of the main strip so it was nice that you could walk from the hotel into the town without driving. The hotel was dog friendly which was what we needed. Upon checking in we saw other dogs walking around and the front desk staff were also very friendly to our dog. They even have an outdoor pet area. The room itself as well as the hotel were very clean. They had a lot of amenities. Outdoor pool, outdoor cabana area, free hot breakfast with sausage and eggs and fruit amongst other things. I like to eat healthy and appreciate healthy options. The dining room was huge and had a cozy seating area as well. In that are there were also lots of great reading material and brochures and magazines on the local Moab area and Moab outdoor activities. I took a few for our drive and read them which was nice to have for such a long road trip. Behind the hotel is the famous red rock known for the area. Just couldn't get enough of the pretty rock view from our bedroom window. You get a great view of it from the outdoor pool as well. There was plenty of parking! Most hotels have you driving around for a spot. There's a section of parking that is like a huge parking lot for many cars. Well lit. I'd love to come back here and enjoy this hotel and town and outdoor adventures one day. Highly recommend this hotel. Their prices were very affordable as well even with a pet!
