Reviews and Ratings
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and tidy, very comfortable for a motel. I was pleasantly surprised that they weren't as rustic as I expected, and the Keurig coffeemaker was a nice touch. However, the bathroom was a bit on the smaller side, but it's understandable given the remote location.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and adequately spacious, although some improvements like new towels and more water-efficient toilets could enhance the stay. The staff's demeanor varied from exceptionally friendly in the cafeteria to rather unwelcoming and even rude in interactions, impacting the overall service quality. The location was excellent for exploring Canyon de Chelly and the nearby trading post, but fell slightly short of expectations. The dining options, particularly the adjacent cafeteria with local specialties, offered a convenient but limited experience. The facilities provided were satisfactory but did not stand out. Overall, the value for money was decent considering the aspects that could be improved.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were neat and comfortable, but they were small, incredibly cold, and had a strong smell of a plug-in air freshener. The service was top-notch with a friendly and helpful staff, and the location was excellent for exploring Canyon de Chelly. However, the dining options were limited, and the price could have been better.
