Great overall hotel in Moab!

Wonderful experience staying at the Virginian hotel in Moab. Great value for the money. Huge room, very clean, excellent bed. My only issue - and the reason I am not giving 5 stars - the was with the structural quality. Every step, however light, was coming through the ceiling so loud and would vibrate my room. Thus caused major disruption to my sleep.

I reserved a room at 1 hotel for 2 nights. Was switched to another hotel because something was wrong with a window. Was sent to a place that had a restaurant attched to it and the back door was at my front door. Went to the original place the second night. Our room was at the base of metal stairs, you can hear every move from the people up above us and when ever someone came in to the parking lot the car light went right into the window. And this morning i realized we had no towels. The employee was helpful as much as he could be. Not going to try again there.

This is our favorite hotel in Moab and we stay here every time we visit. It's not the fanciest but it is clean and has all the amenities. If you need more, just ask the front desk. It is right across from the Moab Diner-our favorite place to eat in Moab. Very budget friendly and fantastic malts! The hotel is on a dead-end street which means low traffic. If you know Moab, the tourist season traffic can be horrific! The Virginian also backs the river which includes a river walking path. The Staff are friendly and a joy to visit with. You can easily walk to downtown shopping. Enjoyed a really great experience!

Decor and room were cozy and clean but there was a big crack in the ceiling above the shower that was consistently leaking water and plaster. When we realized it, no one was around at the front desk to even discuss it with.

Pretty good for a two star hotel

Firm comfortable bed, spacious, tv (cable only) on the small side. Most king rooms are on the first floor. The location is great, close to mill creek path and Main Street. Dog fee was $15 per night.

Terrible experience! I have travelled all over the states, stayed in many different hotels/motels. This by far is the worst one ever. Four of us got here after eight at night, a man checked us in. Found shower drain clogged up, water raised to ankle deep within two minutes, dirt and hair back floating from the drain. Called front desk. Waited 40 minutes, a handyman came with a plunger, for about 2-3 minutes he left; said he would be back in ten minutes with tools. We waited another 40 minutes but no one came back, then we called again about the problem. A female answered, gave us a runaround:“handyman said the drain is fixed.” “I don’t know about this…” “we’re full, no open room…”“manager not here, I’ll text him…” “have to wait till tomorrow…” Nothing was done. It was definitely a frustrating night for us fighting the drain all night. Unfortunately we had booked two nights here. The next morning we came to the front desk, expressed our frustration and request for room change or a refund for the second day. Man at the desk was who checked us in the night before. He did not at all seem sorry about what happened last night. He insisted that the shower was fine because handyman said so, and we are the ones who are nuisance, being unreasonable. He refused to switch rooms nor to refund us. During the conversation, he became hostile and yelled at us,”Shut up! No one else is complaining but you!” “No refund! If you don’t want to stay, just leave!” I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS!!!!!
