There is not much if anything here but that is what you come here for. It's an old motel, with an amazing story, that could use a bit of TLC but the rooms are clean, the air conditioning works, and the water was hot in the shower. A great place to stay and show the photos to your friends.

A tiny historic town looking much the way it did 100 years ago. A tour of Marta Becket's murals in the Opera House is highly recommended; we can only hope that performances once again take place in this unique hall. The restaurant currently sits empty, so bring anything you want to eat with you. There is a refrigerator in the common area you can use to store some food.
The surrounding Armargosa Desert stretches out east, north, and south of the village as far as the eye can see. Amazingly, there is an aquifer deep underground fed by the Armargosa River (also underground at this point). So there are some ranches and tiny Nevada casino towns nearby (but not too nearby).
For more info about the Armargosa, visit the Armargosa Conservancy's website at armargosaconservancy dot org.

The information and warning to refuel before entering the National Park are true. The price of fuel in NP is really higher.
Stock up on plenty of water, the temperature is really high. Exertion in the heat will make up for the beauty that appears to be dead, but it is not.

It's close to the East entrance to Death Valley, which makes it a less expensive alternative to resort accommodations in the valley. It's also close to gas and food, which is just 7 miles away to the North, in Nevada (Nevada prices). Again, providing less expensive alternative to gas, and food in the valley.

I’ve struggled to answer the questions.
I’ve struggled to answer the questions. The answers to some were neither yes nor no, but “sort-of.” Overall, the charms may have outweighed the negatives, but there were negatives you’d have to be willing to overlook. questions

I loved the story of the place. Marta Beckett, the dancer, discovered the place, fell in love with it, and re-opened the Opera House and hotel for performances after 21 years of neglect. Despite that, I was a little disappointed. The place was clean, but a little more run-down than I’d expected. We stayed here for 2 nights, then went up the road (7 miles-into NV) to stay at the Lone Street Hotel & Casino. No story, but more comfortable and comparable charge.
Location was good, parking was in a designated area in full sun so not directly outside your room. Bed was a little firm but fresh clean sheets. Shower was OK but you have to wait 10-15 mins for the hot water to come through. Apparently only 1 boiler for entire hotel. Fresh drip coffee made in the lounge area at 8am each morning.. There is a fridge and microwave near the coffee for everyone to use. Cafe/restaurant not open.
This is a historical hotel, there's even a famous documentary about it. From outside it can look like the place it's not taken care of, but I guess that it is for maintaining the original building untouched because of its historical relevance. The inside is old but well taken care of, everything is clean and the beds were comfortable. Free coffee in the morning. Conveniently close to the Death Valley National Park.
it’s a wonderful place staying in death valley. embraced by the outstanding art by marta becket, you can still feel the soul and spirit of her. the tour into her opera house is just overwhelming. and brooke, the hotel manager brought her vision truly to life. i enjoyed my stay all over so much. it’s a wonderful quiet place and the beds are so comfy. you will find everything you need. thank you brooke and your team!
quaintness and quirkiness of the whole establishment, its historic character, the old photos and murals (even though they were peeling!), the ability to have tea constantly and coffee in the morning, and to make your own meals (breakfast and dinner) using the microwave, toaster and frig in the room by the old dining room. This should be made better known in the advertising of the hotel.
It's a fascinating hotel, but it's not for everyone. It's an old adobe building which is in a state of arrested decay. The staff do a good job of keeping it clean and comfortable, but a four star luxury hotel it is not. The rooms are dated and a little crumbling, it's in the middle of nowhere, it's a place with a fascinating history, and there are horses nearby. I totally loved it.
If you look beyond the obvious and consider the history of the building it is full of character and charm
The receptionist was brilliant, she was so nice and helpful
The location suited us perfectly after our journey from Mojavie through Death Valley. Of note we arrived late due to underestimating the length of our journey but the hotel staff still accommodated our late arrival.
I loved everything of this amazing historical hotel. I’m so glad I chose it! Room was large, bed and pillows very comfortable, bathroom had everything I needed. The communal living room with fireplace was my favourite place. I loved the colonnade outside. I just loved everything!
Ive stayed here a few times so I knew what to expect. It appears that some work is being done on both the outside and inside of the hotel to make it look a bit better. This is a one of a kind hotel with a great story and it deserves to live on.
This place is amazing! Old hotel in a ghost town just a few males from the east death Valley NP entrance. Staff is super nice and everything clean. Budget option to be seriously considered when visiting the death valley.
It is in a fantastic location and the hotel is characterful and unique. It was a great one night stop before we visited Death Valley and beyond and make sure you get a tour of the Opera House. You will not regret it.
Very special hotel, clearly not for everybody. It's a bit spooky and very special - we knew this before and were not disappointed, but it is clearly not for someone expecting a "normal" hotel.
