5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

This place you could easily spend a full day going off-road and taking some amazing photos. Bring a drone with you if you have it as the scenery is amazing. With Monument Valley just down the road, this is a great base of operations.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveller

For travellers, the lack of mobile reception and intermittent wifi make it very hard. Low standard place
