9.2/10 Wonderful! (716 reviews)
Catbird is awesome. Amazing rooms with some loft beds and a huge screen that covers the window to watch tv. Modern, comfortable and efficient rooms. A fantastic shower and bathroom. Amazing rooftop space with hot tubs and a green area with chairs—comfortable and cozy places all over to lounge and converse. Local art everywhere. Scooters and bikes you can borrow for free. Kind and helpful staff. Catbird is fantastic, and although I only live an hour way, I will come again just to chill. Plus, you can easily walk to Mission Ballroom from here.

Popular places to visit

Way out in the official middle of nowhere, straddling the Colorado/Utah border is the National Monument of Hovenweep. It is located just north of meeting place of the Four States. Driving in from Colorado on a clear day gives distant views of Monument Valley to the west, Shiprock to the south, the the La Sal mountains, Sleeping Ute Mountain and the La Plata Mountains. This area is a hub of ancient activity with Mesa Verde to the east and Canyon Du Chelly to the west. Often overlooked due to its diminutive size Hovenweep is a crossroads on the ancient trade routes of the Anasazi.
