I chose this hotel to take my grandchildren on a getaway and because there is a swim pool. Turns out the pool heater was broken and the pool was very very cold! We weren’t informed about that until we checked in. Then at between 5:30-6:00 am the fire alarm went off. The desk people didn’t know what to do. We were told not to evacuate. But with the alarm kept going off everyone was awake and up. So that ended any kind of relaxing vacation. On the upside, breakfast was fine.

This hotel charges premium prices for limited service. I got two paper cups for the Keurig and one sheet change that I had to specifically request over 14 nights. The hotel was noisy and poorly managed. I work in the Vernal area around 2-3 months a year. I won't stay here again.
