The Bryce Uptop Lodge is not a lodge; it is a refurbished old motel made of four, single-story buildings. Some updates have been made, but a lot more effort is needed. Many basic, standard conveniences are lacking. Staff is literally nonexistent.
Without GPS we would never have found the place as there is no sign for the "lodge" on the road or the buildings, except for "Motel Office." A musty smell of old motel was the first and persistent impression. We were lucky to find someone in the office when we arrived. We came to the office at 8:30 PM on two days to find it empty, although a paper stated the Office Hours as 2PM - 9 or 10PM. A paper said "for assistance please call" with a phone number. Calling the number went to voicemail with a full mailbox. There was literally no way to get help after we checked in. Even worse, they left packets on the unattended desk with names, room numbers AND CARDKEYS of customers who had not yet arrived!
Our room was generally clean and the beds reasonably comfortable. But many things were lacking. We had 1 washcloth for 2 of us, no Kleenex, the thinnest of 1-ply toilet paper, no stopper in the sink, a showerhead that managed a trickle. and a small dirty rug with a rolled edge on the laminate floor. Outlets were located on the walls behind the beds. No ice machine, but a tiny note in the foyer told us we could get ice from the restaurant nearby (during their business hours).
We were very disappointed.
