We rented both levels of the Watermelon House that is managed by the Lazy Lizard Hostel. We needed a place for our family that had enough bedrooms and bathrooms to house all 24 of us in our family. We found that in the Watermelon House. This place is not fancy, very basic in its amenities, but it had what we... More

This place was cheap and we didn't expect much at all however we had hairs in our bed and it looked like someone had had an abortion in the womens toilets due to an abundance of blood in the toilet. Not good. If they cleaned the place well it would be good value for money.

Well, that's no good. We use static cling sheets in the dryers that usually take care of the hairs on the sheets. Sorry if some slipped through. The bathrooms are cleaned regularly. When things need attention like the situation mentioned above we can take care of them right away if anyone mentions them to us. Again we are sorry for... More

I agree with the other reviewers, if your expecting the ritzi's dont stay here but if your looking for clean and comfortable hostel the lazy lizard wont disappoint. We stayed in a private twin room, which for $30 between two you can not complain. The room was clean and comfortable. It was basic but that is all that we required.... More

Second time I have stayed. Private room (shared facilities) for under $30pn. Complete bargain. Whilst tatty and faded on the edges it all worked fine for me. It has far more character than a cookie-cutter-motel at a third of the cost. They will get my business again!

This place isn't fancy but its cheap and clean and after a day of hiking that's all I was looking for. don't expect luxury for 10 to 30 bucks a night. If you don't mind community showers and restrooms this is the place. Since it was so inexpensive I was able to have money for other things. I stayed 2... More

In the winter or early spring just being inside is a big step above camping. We reserved a private cabin and cozied up for the night. The cabin came with a large space heater which was sufficient to keep the room warm. It was very rustic, no tv, no closet, no coffee pot. The room had the bare minimum when... More

We stayed here after extending our trip in Moab and realizing that we had to budget ourselves if we wanted to stay longer. Our only regret was not staying here originally. as soon as we arrived it was like our trip just got way better. People were coming in and out after their adventures and everyone was hanging out as... More

I stayed here several years ago and it has not changed. This time we rented a private room in this hostel which had a full sized lower and twin upper bunkbed. The room does not have a bathroom, but the shared bathhouse is right outside. They also rent single beds in male, female or coed rooms for $10/night. The private... More
