location is amazing, it's an older property with few amenities and certainly not cheap, but being right on the rim of the grand canyon made it worth it for us, the trailhead for Bright Angel trail is just steps away, super convenient

Only downside was check in had no details of our reservation which was a little disconcerting. As we were from the UK we had no internet and the hotel couldn't provide this until check in so it wasn't easy to find a copy of our booking proof.

This is truly a unique place to stay and enjoy the beauty of the Grand Canyon. The Bright Angel lodge next door offers dining options both late and early. We loved all the small touches like specialized tile in the shower featuring Grand Canyon wildlife.
