Road Creek Inn

Overall, the road Creek Inn is a good place to stay that is out of the way of the tourists around capital Reef National Park. We stayed in the family suite and found the room to be clean with enough space to spread out nicely. The room has a mini refrigerator and unfortunately, the freezer part of the mini fridge needed to be defrosted. The central kitchen area was available for everyone to use and appeared to have all the necessary things to cook a meal. The entertainment area in the basement has a ping-pong table, a seating area with large screen TV, and a separate movie room with a large screen TV. Some new ping-pong, paddles, and balls are needed. The only thing that was a little disappointing is that there is no hotel staff available on site. If you needed something, you had to message them through the hotels.com app or call a phone number that was provided. Check-in was easy. We received an email and message in the app with our door code.

It was a great room and having a kitchen to cook in was appreciated.

Having a kitchen to prepare meals was great! There is a grocery store across the street. Not many restaurants in Loa. The common areas were a great place to gather the family! It would have been nice to have an ice machine and a drinking fountain. The bed was comfortable. The soap in our bathroom was very liquid, like someone added water to it to make it go farther, a bit annoying.

This is a quaint hotel with lots of history just a half hour from Capitol Reef National Park. The value is good compared to hotels closer. There are a lot of useful common spaces, including a commercial kitchen, dining room, game room, and cinema. The hotel is self serve with no staff on site, just codes for the exterior and room key pads. It felt a bit like a cross between a hotel and a hostel. All the communal areas, the cooking options, and the overall feel reminded me of hostels, although having my own room and bathroom is of course much better. For me, the communal aspect was a fun change during my long trip as I talked with other travelers. The self service aspect wasn’t completely bad, but more support would have been helpful in my case. When I arrived about three in the afternoon, I found that my bathroom light didn’t work. I called the support number and was told maintenance would come about five. At 5:30 I called again and talked to a different person who hadn’t heard anything about the problem and said they would check on it. During this time I noticed the wall outlet in the bathroom also didn’t work. By 7:30 I gave up on waiting and went wandering. The basement has common spaces and in one corner I found a dark utility room with the breaker panel. Found the tripped switch and fixed the problem myself. Never heard back from anyone. Overall, a nice place if you don’t mind being self sufficient. Also, grocery is across the street.

Very clean and had all the amenities in the common areas. Close to Fish Lake. Just a note, it's self-check in with no staff to greet you. I was the first guest to check-in and it was a bit creepy. 3 stories of empty gave me a Shining Vibe lol. I survived. Will stay again.
