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

The hotel was a great location to visit Death Valley NationalPark. However the accommodations were ghastly. We stayed the two nights because we simply did not know where else to go. I will not stay at the hotel or recommend this hotel to anyone else. Some simple upgrades such as clean carpet, litter free entrance, appealing furniture in the common area, and better paint job.
Can't believe I stayed here. AAA compared this hotel to Motel 6. That is an insult to Motel 6.
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.
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.
An absolute dump, dirty. Run down, paint falling off walls, dirt parking with pot holes and puddles, filthy, plumbing didn't work. After checking in, seeing our room and learning that you had to let the water drip for 15 minutes before you could turn it on, we left and spent the night elsewhere. Lost $113. Can't believe you list this hotel on your site!!!
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!
truly unique experience: almost 100 years old hotel that is very clean and vintage at the same time! the vibe in the hotel was so Wild West, perfectly fits it’s location, right next to Death Valley. Late check in/early check out was just a breeze.
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.
The staff was friendly and helpful, they hotel and the location are beautiful and full of character. Loved that there were no TVs or phone in the rooms and the Wifi worked fine.
The hotel is fascinating with its history. I bought the book written by Marta Becket and took a tour of the premises. that's an unforgettable experience!
A good location near Death Valley National Park that provides a cheaper lodging option. Reminds me of a ghost town, which is interesting. Is very quiet.
