They have done an excellent job remodeling this motel. Many thoughtful details like lots of outlets and usb ports, larger than standard motel size refrigerator with a freezer that works, separate towels for cleaning boots and equipment. Excellent location to see Grand Staircase Escalante and Kodachrome State Park.

They have a fire pit and horseshoe on the other side of the parking lot- close enough to use easily but far enough away to not be too loud. Very cute and one of a kind!

Honestly a great experience. You know you’re booking a motel so nothing fancy but very clean and newly renovated. Beds were comfy and thoughtful touches like coat hooks and storage space. We had a kid throw up in the car before arriving and they offered a hose to help clean off floor mats. Staff were fantastic and town is very walkable.

No one...absolutely no on was in the office or on the property. We called numerous times with no response. We were instructed to scam a code and that didn't work. We could not get into a room after an hour of trying in 30 degree weather. Absolutely horrible. We had to go to another hotel. Now we are paying for 2 rooms tonight. Absolutely, absolutely horrible!!!

Theresa, I hope that the owner reaching out and refunding your money as well as covering the cost of the other motel brought some piece of mind for you! We genuinely apologize for your negative experience. We are striving daily to make positive changes. Our guests are top priority. We now have an onsite manager so these kind of issues will be avoided. Have a beautiful day! Wrendi Starks Office manager Circle D Motel

Noisey heater. Bugs in room. Looked up bugs, they were true bugs. It was clean otherwise, but in the middle of no where with limited expensive dining options. I should have researched the area better before booking. Staff was friendly. Very quiet and isolated.
