I was a little disappointed the pool was still a little cold. There was black marks all over the walls in the room and hairs on the ceiling in the bathroom.

Nice spot to stay if you plan on taking the train to grand canyon national park. If not big on train ride then staying within national park is a great option.

It waa a nice hotel. Close and within walking distance to main area in Williams. The one thing i didnt like about this hotel is you have to ask to have your room serviced everyday if you want that. Otherwise, they dont service it.

Loved it!

Really beautiful hotel. Train station is just steps away out the back of the hotel. Polar Express experience is a must for all ages! Beautifully decorated for Christmas. Located near a charming little town. Just an hour away from the Grand Canyon. Excellent for families. We will be going back.
