We were in one of the old cabins. Our very small window looked at another cabin. The bathtub needed replacing with a seamless tub. The room was otherwise comfortable and well supplied.

Wonderful service and full day tour of Canyon de Chelly with David was fantastic. He was so experienced with the drive and knowledgeable about the history and sights. Navajo fare at the cafeteria was terrific.

Well past it's prime (but nice folks)
This m/hotel is something of a local legend but is in dire need of a full renovation. Still, it is a value at under $100/night. The cafeteria (no table service) is low-end institutional quality fare.
