amazing stay near capitol reef!
The restaurant offered great choices for dinner and breakfast. i appreciated the proximity to the national park! plus, my room had a balcony with mountain views. I requested a second-floor room, which gave me this very nice view!
Rooms

the king room included well-equipped amenities and a spacious layout. i noticed a nice pool and convenient parking close to my room, made accessing the facilities simple and fast.
Dining
8/10
The onsite restaurant featured dinner and breakfast. breakfast service had only one server, though she did very well. I recommend management consider cross-training to assist during busier periods for smoother service.
the location was near capitol reef national park (very convenient for early morning hikes). i found the room clean upon arrival.
the restaurant hours were limited, offering few dining options after a certain time.
