“Its location within the national park is a significant advantage, placing you minutes from key sights and hiking trails. The sprawling grounds feel like a welcome oasis, and the generously sized pool is a definite highlight, especially in the desert heat. While some areas show a bit of age, the comfortable rooms and the convenience of on-site dining options, including a popular ice creamery, make it a sensible base for exploring Death Valley.”
