Amazing property right on the Rim Trail of the Grand Canyon. Comfortable beds, clean and tidy. Parking is difficult - no dedicated parking sports so you have to take your chances of finding a spot on the public roads along with the thousands of other visitors.

The location of the property to views of the canyon, even partial view was excellent for the price. Well worth it. There was a bus stop in front of the property so it was convenient to get around the town to all the best overlooks. Thank you!

The location of the property was fantastic! We were just steps away from the Grand Canyon and even had a great view from our room. The downside was the size of the room and that it was a little outdated. The shower was a challenge for my husband and daughter, who are tall. Otherwise, we enjoyed our time there.

Very good, but a bit dated building right on the canyon rim. Parking is a luck of the draw, lots of stairs in the building, so arrival and departure is a bit difficult as we had to carry our luggages a few flight of stairs to where we parked.
