Fully renovated gem that was our best experience lodging in Cedar City so far. We come every year for the mountain bike races and really liked this place for the cleanliness and price. Glad we found it, we will definitely stay here again.
The hotel was recently renovated and has all new furnishings. The hotel is well maintained and very clean. The rooms are a good size, clean and very comfortable.
There is a nice outdoor pool, hot tub and a fitness center with all new, well-maintained equipment.
The onsite Mexican restaurant has great food and reasonable prices. Overall, the hotel is a great place to stay.
Really clean room, just smelled a little funny, maybe their cleaner they use?
Comfy bed.
Friendly staff and very nice breakfast bar they provide.
Attached is a Mexican restaurant with great food and drinks.
Very comfortable and priced well. We will return when traveling for sure.
A wonderful stay. Helpful friendly staff. Clean room. Working wonderful, hot tub. Delicious breakfast included. Convenient location. Walking distance to convenient store, and fast food. There is a Mexican restaurant on the premises with a wide variety of delicious dishes, alcohol beverages, TV to watch sports and friendly staff. They also have free tea and coffee. Thanks guys. It was a pleasure staying here.
AC was loud and windows didn’t have screens so bring earplugs if it’s too hot or too cold outside. It was otherwise quiet. 5 min to Shakespeare Festival. Hot breakfast including eggs, hash browns and ham.
Very clean comfortable rooms with plenty of outlets for charging, good towels, and helpful nightlights. The only downsides were we could not get the microwave to work and the pool was out of service.
The adjacent Mexican restaurant was very convenient and food delicious.
Great breakfast. Clean room. Easy access with my luggage to the door beings it is parking lot accessible. Only downside The pool was down for maintenence.
I thought the hotel was very good. Ine thing that surprised me is, the room was never cleaned (garbage dumped, beds made - this may be standard since Covid: I don't ttavel a lot anymore) in the 3 nights we stayed there. The breakfast was very good as were all of the employees we met.
Overall nice stay. Front desk staff was kind, check in went with ease. Only wish that the AC unit in the room was a little quieter there was a loud knocking when it ran

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Rooms were incredibly clean. Door had to be pushed or pulled to get it to lock. Pool was dirty. Convenient location. Staff was friendly. They are remodeling so there was some mess but it was kept away from guests. All ice makers were unplugged—-this shouldn’t seem like a big thing but it was more inconvenient than i expected.
Maid service has to be requested, and I didn't need it. Indoor hot tub was wonderful. Breakfast was great. When I asked the staff to put my blue ice in the freezer, they put it in the refrigerator, or some place where it did not freeze. Parking was wonderful. Overall 4.5 stars out of 5.
Though in my visit construction upgrades were active, I didn’t hear any noise/expernc problems. I like the property. Standard rooms are spacey, clean, fridge/microwave. What was especially nice, is the attached restaurant (doesn’t allow take-away), but nice Mexican food, drinks if desired, & longer than typical in Cedar City, hours. The pool is lgr than most these days, staff was kind. Property doesn’t hv elevators-only stairs-so if physically challenged to carry yr stuff up steps (only inside), do rqst 1st floor. Zero complaints- I often stop enroute to SoCal, in Cedar City. I’d def return.
