The Inn at Death Valley

This place is smack dab in the middle of death valley which was exactly what we wanted and made seeing the sights so much easier. Our double queen room was tiny and didn’t have much extra space beyond the two beds. The room was dim and the decor could definitely use some upgrades. The most frustrating part was the a/c, though. It was over 110 the days that we were there and we were given instructions not to turn the a/c below 74. Our room never got anywhere near this temperature. We all slept on top of our sheets and sweated throughout the night. I’m from Texas and know about hot summers but it is possible to get a/c units that can function properly. The general store, cafe & reception area were all pleasantly cool.

Stayed for one night and the Ranch is ideally placed for Death Valley National Park. It is basically a big motel hence the reasonable price and is spread out over a large site which is well maintained with good amenities pool, post office, general store, laundry etc. It is getting a little tired with the rooms needing spruced up and the WiFi definitely needs to be improved but it is comfortable. The restaurant is overpriced and the food average so beware as there is little alternative and it books up very quickly! I would say overall the staff are friendly and helpful.

A great location and extremely helpful staff. Regretfully we only stayed one night on a road trip but would stay again without hesitation. Room was comfortable if just a tad basic but the aircon worked well!
