10/10 Excellent
"This is the perfect place to stay in Escalante. It’s amazing how everything you need is included in this small space without feeling cramped. Modern and tasteful, the decor is pleasing and the outdoor patio and fire pit are a bonus. It’s perfect for a small family, and 2 couples could do it ( one would need to share bunk beds) with a little squeeze for luggage but there’s plenty of room. I like how the 10 tiny homes sort of create their own little neighborhood and the location is right next to the town. Nice views, spotlessly clean, and excellent communication with the hosts. We will definitely be back."

"Hotel was great in terms of location & amenities& sites nearby. Only issue was the obviously new Roku TV. We didn't know how to get regular networks on it & neither had any streaming services. Owner was willing to assist to get us to the network we wanted but it couldn't be worked out. He offered a partial refund for our inconvenience, which was acceptable to us. Easy access to the room w/the digital lockbox & clear instructions."
