Pros:

The staff was great. We had some sleeping bags get terribly wet the staff allowed us to use their dryer so we could dry them. Also, they let us know when the dryer was down so we could swap the sleeping bags and get them out when they were done. Furthermore, the room was cozy and clean.

Pros:

If you’ve ever been to Murdo, this is a star in the small town. The room I received was clean spacious and very neat. The towels were excellent. I would stay here again when I come through Murdough the staff was very helpful. I had some issues with my motorcycle and they were very helpful in figuring out what to do.
