I didn't get to stay at this property. My plans changed and I tried to re-book my stay to the following weekend. I tried to change it at 1 pm and was told the cut-off is noon (even though property allows to 4 pm] and I would be charged for both weekends. The hotel was happy to change it, but Expedia wouldn't let them. Expedia has set it up so there is no way to contact a customer service rep, the only option is a virtual assistant that does nothing helpful. Expedia's little game to force customers to buy travel insurance by changing the cancellation time from noon to 3 or 4 pm is tacky. I've used Expedia since they started and there are too many better options for travel than a company that cares little about customer satisfaction or customer friendly policies.

Some minor problems as the bathroom light was tricky to get to stay on and the toilet seat wouldn't stay up. They have good parking for my truck pulling a trailer.

Cheap for a reason

The molding shower was horrifying. we didn't use it. The walls need retexturing and painting. This isn't in much better condition than when it was the Ramada. Friendly staff (if you can find them). Breakfast room was unattended most of the time, the fridge that they keep the milk and yogurt in was full of mildew and smelled bad. Also, because I have to follow a strict gluten free diet, (my daughter also) we did not find much food safe to eat. Holiday inn express and many other places have gluten-free items upon request. There was no breakfast attendant I could even ask about what my safer options would be.

Not good

Checking in was super easy, and front staff was super nice. Problem came when we entered the room. Old, sticky, not clean room. There were no pool towels so when asked they provided old towels with holes in them for the pool. Wouldn’t stay again and wouldn’t recommend anyone else staying

One of the few places in Green River that accepts dogs, and is not a complete roach shack - so props to them on that part. Staff were nice and helpful. Rooms were clean, but pretty basic. The bed and pillows were about average, comfort-wise. AC and fan unit was noisy, as usual for a place like this. The worst part of the stay was probably Green River itself. Not much going on, especially for dining options. It's a typical pass-through oil country western town. But, overall, it was clean and good for a single night stay. Also a decent value @ about $90 per night.

Went to sit in hot tub and water was below body temperature!. It was determined that morning shift forgot to turn it on. It's not left on gentle recirculation all night? It took about 15 minutes for the hot tub to start feel warm.

Great deal

The hotel was good for the price. It had a hot breakfast with bacon, sausage links and eggs. The hot tub was a bonus after hiking delicate arch and being sore. It took a bit to warm up but the front desk was quick to turn it on and start warming it up. The bed was somewhat firm, slept okay. The tamarisk across the street had a great menu of food. Loved their dinner menu.
