They did not provide breakfast as they advertised. The room was dirty. There was dirt on the bedspread, blankets and sheets. The ceiling had what looked like a leak, and part of the ceiling was rotted. The shower had a clog. The toilet and sinks had rings. Overall it was not a clean or comfortable room.

This is our 2nd time staying at this hotel and our family loves it. The rooms are cozy and boutique-like compared to a standard hotel. The owners put effort in to make this place feel comfortable. It is a great deal and the location is very convenient to Bryce National Park. I made use of the outdoor grill to BBQ on a cold evening and it was awesome as it was well lit and had a picnic table to setup. This is a great value and I recommend it for anyone passing through. We checked in around 6pm and it was contactless which was very simple and convenient. Ignore the negative reviews unless you're high maintenance. My first time booking was through another popular booking site which has good ratings on this place.

I was unable to check in due to it being locked up, and had to go to another motel. Contacted them thru "text" the next day to only get hateful feedback from whomever was on the other side. I could add so much more, but why waste my time.

one of the most rude people I have ever met.
My family was in a very desperate need for a room as our vehicle had just broken down just north of town. On the outside this is an old run down Motel. Looking through the windows the rooms (the ones that were actually cleaned) looked nice and clean. We made the reservation through Hotels.com app as I have done for almost 15 years now. This hotel has fallen into the trap of only doing business through hotels.com messaging app. There is no lobby, despite the pictures. The hotel sent an automated message saying there will be a key on the front door with our name on it. However, there is a sign on the front door that says if you do not see an envelope with your name on it, then take the first key that just says "Guest #1" .We sat in the parking lot for over 2 hours with our broken down car sending messages and making phone calls to the hotel without a single response. Hotel.com tried to call for 1 hour with no responses. With no responses we followed the directions on the door and took the first key. Then someone in a hoody and pajamas came out of nowhere and started yelling at us and berating us for following their instructions on their door. I left the property. I contacted Hotels.com and filed a threating complaint. They will be removing this property from their available options, and might peruse legal actions against the property. BEWARE! - the hotel takes the money from you at the time of reservation and then states it is non-refundable.

The Adobe Sands is a great value if you are looking for a no frills place to spend the night. It's not fancy and could use a few basic updates but you can't beat it in terms of convenience and value for money

Their “contactless” policy really is just no service. Our key got stuck in the lock. We requested help that didn’t come for 24 hours. We got locked out of room and had to move hotels. I would never stay at this place again.

If you’re only looking to save money, you may choose this hotel. If you want comfort, look elsewhere. The sheets may have been clean, but the comforter wasn’t. The room was very old. Not quaint, just outdated. Many of the furnishings looked as though they hadn’t been replaced in decades. There was no fridge in the room, although there was a microwave, for whatever reason. The TV was ok, and even had HBO. The AC froze up, and we turned it to vent for a couple of hours, to thaw it. The mattress was harder than anything I’ve slept on besides the floor or the ground. We both tossed and turned all night, feeling bruised from the hardness. Thankfully, we brought our own pillows. There was no check in, with the keys taped to the front door, in labeled envelopes. No checkout, either. I’m okay with that. And I normally don’t ask for maid service, but in this hotel, there isn’t any unless you ask. If they remodel, who knows, but unless that happens, we’ll look elsewhere in the future.

The property was poor in the bed condition (quality and cleanliness) and charges based on facility. We had two queen rooms for a night, and the manager was supposed to send out an email related to check in procedure 15 days before the date, but no email received. I could not contact the person at all. I had to contact Expedia customer support. One of the bed was so bad that it felt like sleeping in a cup. There were hair on the bed! There was a hair dryer pouch but no hair dryer in one of the rooms. There was not fridge or microwave in one of the rooms even though we paid same for both rooms. Both rooms had the noisiest AC unit possible. Couldn’t sleep with the AC on. One of the rooms had a weird repaired shower. For the price, I wouldn’t say it’s bad, except for the dirty and bad quality bed

The staff (via text) was friendly and the place was clean enough for the money. However, there were no electricity outlets…. Two in the entire room. The air conditioner plug had to be attached to an extension cord halfway across the room. Which made it so you had to choose between a/c, refrigerator or microwave. No outlet in the bathroom! No coffee. No cups or ice. No front desk, so you had to text a number if you needed anything. Bed had a weird wire around the outside which skinned my shin hopping in. Seemed like some rooms were rented out monthly? Cigarette butts in planters. Good amount of hot water for showers and walls were sound so you couldn’t hear your neighbors. Meh.

It was much better than expected after reading some of the negative reviews here. It was an older hotel but was still in pretty good condition. Everything worked fine. The check in was a self check which I read some pretty negative comments about, but if you check out Adobe Sands' website they explain about that. For the money, it was a real value. We even ended staying an extra night!
