10/10 Excellent
"Well kept and nicely appointed room. Best night’s sleep I’ve had in 10 days on the road. We arrived after sunset and could not see our surroundings. Imagine my surprise to see the red rock cliffs and the mesa to the west aglow in sunlight before it crested the ridge near us. I took advantage to spend time sitting outside on the chairs provided to watch the colours come alive as the sun rose. A memorable stay. I don’t when I’ll be back this way, but when I am, I’ll be staying here!"
